To all of my ME/CFS community: I need your help. I need to collect samples from 30 more healthy people unrelated to ME/CFS patients to begin the 2nd cohort right away! Please read the below note and see if you know of anyone who meets the criteria! Many thanks for all the help.
For "CFS related disorders" multi-omics study, the research team at Stanford Center for Personalized Medicine has collected almost all the samples needed for their comprehensive multi-omics study. They only need 30 more samples from healthy volunteers who are unrelated to ME/CFS patients to begin mass data generation and analyses. It would be an amazing help if you could help them to spread the news and be able to collect those extra samples.
By healthy volunteers, they mean heathy male and female between 30-60 with no history of CFS, exercise intolerance, autoimmune disorders (even psoriasis or severe seasonal allergy), connective tissue disorders, cancer, diabetes, obesity, cardiac, liver, kidney, GI abnormality or metabolic disorder. Blood will be collected at 3165 Porter Dr, Palo Alto in a morning between 10-11:30 am within next 30 days! For those who are interested, please send an email to "fjahania@stanford.edu".
