Their stated goal is vaccine creation, since that's trendy right now, but this might also be useful for ME research. It would be interesting to see this system work with fluids from an ME patient. Would the 'something in the blood' show a response on this? If yes, it could simplify figuring out what the factor is and how it's working.
