Patent application
Saturday November 11, 2006
A report from ImmuneSupport.com highlights that there has been a recent patent application from Dr John Gow and his fellow researcher at the University of Glasgow, Dr Abhijit Chaudhuri, to the European Patent Office for “a diagnostic tool for CFS.”
The “invention” they wish to patent involves “materials and methods for diagnosis and treatment of CFS.” These are based on the genetic biomarkers for CFS that the two applicants have described in the course of their ongoing research – what they have termed “the gene signature” for ME/CFS.
The article is available here:

There are plans afoot to bring Dr Chaudhuri to Adelaide next year, so this is very exciting news.
