Hey, yes! I’m onboarding people to new studies via the following link:

Thanks!

Sorry Steve, I haven’t checked bsky for a very long time, what was this regarding?

Apparently my bsky details were compromised in a breach, password changed but if this account does anything weird just know it isn’t me!

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) This book examines Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and techniques used to explore dysfunctional pathophysiology in patients.

Did you wake up with a craving for a new ME/CFS book with dozens of chapters about research methods? Well, it’s your lucky day link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

Finished just in time for Easter! Looking forward to starting experiments!

We also home visit if needed and viable but can discuss with the other stuff

Yep, we can do remote collections via pathology providers. Best to say hi by email and we can work it out :) take care

85/100 samples in the freezer! We now need to round out our control cohort. If you know anyone who is apparently healthy who might be interested in giving a sample to the project (with $20 reimbursement of time and expenses) please refer them to D.Missailidis@latrobe.edu.au

Very important research - please register via the QR below

We’re running a day of blood draws for ME, LC, and recovered post-C19 / healthy ppl on campus at La Trobe. This Wednesday April 2nd, all day 8am - 6pm. Details in signup link below.

Pleased to share this research from my PhD in @graemecowan.bsky.social's lab! We replicated existing evidence of moderately increased IGHV3-30 usage in B cells of patients with mild/moderate, but not severe ME. www.frontiersin.org/journals/imm...

Congrats on this and your thesis Audrey. Watching with interest and hope to meet you at a conference some time. Very important results

Thank you as always, legend.

Looking for a handful of people with ME/CFS in VIC to round out a large study of immune and metabolic function and gut microorganisms. I do home visits where helpful and provide reimbursement to all participants. ❤️

If you’re interested please get in touch at D.Missailidis@latrobe.edu.au

PhD scholarship + project available - ME/CFS & Long COVID related. If interested please get in touch with Dr Sarah Annesley at S.Annesley@latrobe.edu.au

Let’s goooooo (tomorrow!) #SpendChristmasWithME

Our new Long COVID pilot study found two genes whose mRNAs separated a small cohort of Long COVID from recovered post COVID blood samples with 100% accuracy: www.frontiersin.org/journals/imm...

GW in shambles

Sick. Printing is the way

Is that a kit? Nice work

Bring together #pwME and/or #pwLC this
Christmas 🎄

Share a photo of your Xmas with #MECFS or #LongCovid and enjoy suggested movies knowing that you are not alone and others are watching with you.

See my pinned post to see how you can get involved.

Amazing work, Tina. Your passion for this field really comes through.

How is everybody faring today?

Disease to healthy

My current study is using ICC :)

Yeah turns out getting sick and losing one’s life to something with no real treatment gives people depression and anxiety, yes

I have made and tested over 200 cell lines from healthy people, people with ME/CFS, Long COVID, post covid recovered, and the measurable biological differences are pretty obvious

(And have about half a dozen ME/CFS papers and a PhD thesis, or something like that. Links in bio!)

I do, started ME/CFS wet lab cell biology work in 2016
