    USA: Todd Davenport news, talks and tweets

    Some recent tweets: Thread 1 Maybe it’s just another day ending in “y” around here but I’ll volunteer we can never do enough to educate health care practitioners about PEM—the thing that breaks all the rules.

    Preprint Initial findings from the DecodeME genome-wide association study of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, 2025, DecodeMe Collaboration

    I think it's one of the many symptoms that doesn't affect everyone just like some pwME don't experience GI issues or a sore throat.

    DecodeME in the media

    The Yes, same here. He justified it with viewpoint neutrality. The headline is "ME/CFS is not entirely psychosomatic". The head of the DGN then suggests patients should receive home visits from "multidisciplinary teams" including psychologists to rule out depression :rolleyes:
