Scientists have discovered strong evidence linking genetics to the development of myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), a long-neglected illness. In a podcast, Madeleine Finlay discusses these findings with experts and a patient involved in the research.

Editor’s Note: This discovery is significant as it sheds light on a condition that has been overlooked for years. Understanding the genetic factors could lead to better treatments and increased awareness of ME, benefiting many who suffer from this debilitating illness.
