CONTENT WARNING: A decision made for death rather than life with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). My heart is with Celine's family and all those who are affected by this, particularly those who still continue to live with ME.

Dank je wel Céline Corsius! De ME-community heeft de afgelopen tijd intens meegeleefd met Céline Corsius die vandaag op 32-jarige leeftijd is overleden. Céline was open over haar euthanasiewens en deelde de fases die ze in dit proces doorliep. Een moedige stap. Haar activisme en dat van haar familie heeft indruk gemaakt. Zo gaf ze onlangs nog een indrukwekkend interview bij Argos. Ieder jaar liet ze zich op Wereld ME-dag zien in een Millions Missing T-shirt en haar oude school in Etten-Leur stond in de blauwe spotlights. Eerder gaf Céline interviews aan onder andere de NOS en De Groene Amsterdammer. Zo gaf ze ons een gezicht en een stem. Célines droom om met haar prachtige stem jazz zangeres te worden is helaas niet uitgekomen. Vanuit haar bed nam ze ons met mooie foto’s mee op virtuele reis naar Italië en droomden we even weg. Een jong leven is beëindigd omdat er geen uitzicht op verbetering was. Het onrecht dat er zo weinig is geïnvesteerd in onderzoek naar een biomedische behandeling voor ME waar Céline van had kunnen profiteren, is niet te verteren. We zijn dankbaar voor wat Céline voor onze community heeft betekend en wensen haar familie en vrienden veel sterkte toe in deze moeilijke tijd.

Excited to join the Cornell ME/CFS Center in examining the skeletal muscle cellular basis of chronic fatigue. Thanks to our PI @DrMaureenHanson and many collaborators in NYC and Ithaca, and to @NIH @NIAIDFunding for supporting critical research on this understudied syndrome.
Cornell Chronicle@CornellNews

A @Cornell multidisciplinary research center that studies chronic fatigue syndrome has received a $9.5M grant from @NIH – funding that will enable experts to continue work on the mysterious and debilitating condition. @NIAIDFunding @KrishnaWriter news.cornell.edu/stories/2023/0…

Results of a collaboration between the Cornell and Columbia NIH ME/CFS Centers have now been published in JTM. Analysis of plasma proteins and extracellular vesicle cytokines distinguishes ME/CFS from healthy at 86% accuracy. tinyurl.com/2yjjavdj

This evening I had the pleasure of hosting the @hope4mefibroni conf., which ended w/ an amazing joint-announcement from @QUBelfast & @UlsterUni that they will be including ME into their medicine courses. Seismic for patients who have campaigned for greater understanding of ME!

ME/CFS is a highly debilitating neurological disease affecting systems throughout the body. 25% of people with ME are housebound or bedbound, and only ~13% are able to work full-time. People with severe ME are often forced to exist in their beds in isolation for years. #SevereME

[TW: story about severe ME/CFS] Some time ago, a person with severe #MECFS requested that I visit with them. It has been a while since I was there and I’m still working through everything I heard and saw that day. This person had been unwell for many years and their (1/)

Nice to see this from the prestigious US Centers for Disease Control & Prevention "On May 12, 2023, CDC will “light up” its Atlanta campus in blue in recognition of ME/CFS International Awareness Day". Also has its own CDC page cdc.gov/me-cfs/resourc… #WorldMEDay #MEcfs #PwME

No words can describe the pain of loss I feel today. I am tired. I'm tired of people with power destroying the dreams of thousands that they don't even understand. I'm tired of lying in bed as a supplicant trying everything to humanize our situation. #MECFSAwarenessDay #mecfs -SHARE-
