Solve Ramsay Research Grant winner David Esteban, PhD, (Assoc. Professor of Biology, Vassar College) will discuss ongoing work in his lab determining whether there is a link between changes in the gut microbiome and disease in ME/CFS and Long Covid. The collection of bacteria in the gut, known as the gut microbiome, produces many small […]
Free radicals are molecules with one or more unpaired electrons in their outer shells. They tear holes in cell membranes, releasing an overabundance of even more free radicals and preventing proper cell functionality. Antioxidants are molecules stable enough to donate an electron to a rampaging free radical and neutralize it, containing the damage it […]
The lived experiences of people with ME and Long Covid have shown that activity management, or pacing, can be an effective method of reducing symptom severity. However, pacing is difficult to implement. Many people living with energy-limiting conditions have utilized wrist-worn wearables, or activity trackers, to help implement pacing. To validate the value of using […]
**Webinar date changed to May 8, 2024** Dr. David Putrino and Dr. Jamie Wood, of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, have conducted several landmark studies on Long Covid.
