In this episode, we explore a groundbreaking development in the diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS/ME) — a condition that affects millions worldwide, yet remains notoriously difficult to identify…

Joining the podcast to discuss this topic are Alexandre Akoulitchev and Dmitry Pshezhetskiy, who break down a novel blood test designed to detect biological signatures associated with chronic fatigue. Their work centers on cutting-edge epigenetic science and biomarker discovery, offering new possibilities for more objective and earlier diagnosis of complex, hard-to-measure conditions.

Hit play to discover:

How a blood-based biomarker test may help identify chronic fatigue syndrome.
The role of epigenetics in understanding complex, "invisible" illnesses.
The four key symptoms of ME/CFS, and why it's so difficult to diagnose.
How inflammation signals can contribute to chronic fatigue.

Alexandre Akoulitchev is a molecular biologist specializing in genome regulation and chromatin architecture. He is a cofounder of Oxford BioDynamics and the creator of its EpiSwitch biomarker platform. He earned his PhD in cell biology from University College London.

Dmitry Pshezhetskiy is a Professorial Research Fellow at Norwich Medical School and an academic clinician focused on cancer biology and therapeutic research. He completed his academic training at Moscow State University, Montréal institutions, and leading research centers in France, building a strong background in molecular medicine and translational research.
