Dr. Mark Davis, Director of the Stanford Institute for Immunity, Transplantation, and Infection, talks about his work with T-cells to understand their role in ME/CFS and to determine if ME/CFS is an autoimmune disease.

The Open Medicine Foundation (OMF) is funding the work of Dr. Davis into ME/CFS.

This is exciting research! Looking forward to more updates. Proof of autoimmunity would definitely spark interest in developing tests and treatment. I don’t mean to sound petty, but I do wish someone could suggest to Dr. Davis that using the term “chronic fatigue” in place of “Chronic Fatigue Syndrome” or “ME/CFS” is misleading to those outside of the ME/CFS research, patient, and advocate community.
