“While the 100,000 Genomes Project being run by Genomics England is to focus on cancer and rare diseases initially, the personalised or stratified medicine approach is exactly what is needed to uncover new pathways leading to the different forms of M.E. and CFS,” Prof Holgate told Action for M.E. “It really is a most exciting development with real promise to demystify underlying disease mechanisms.”
