Lubov Nathanson
Lubov Nathanson, PhD, is an assistant professor in the College of Osteopathic Medicine’s Institute for Neuro-Immune Medicine (INIM), Nova Southeastern University, Florida, US.[1]
Dr Nathanson research interests include exploring altered genetic expression in the immune cells of ME/CFS patients and the potential role of DNA methylation, an epigenetic process that can turn genes on or off, in ME/CFS.
2017 Ramsay Award[edit | edit source]
A team comprised of Dr. Elisa Oltra of Universidad Católica de Valencia, Spain, and Drs. Lubov Nathanson, Vladimir Beljanski and Malav Suchin Trivedi of Nova Southeastern University, US, were awarded a 2017 Ramsay Award grant from the Solve ME/CFS Initiative for researching the effect of ME/CFS on epigenetic regulation in specific immune cell types.[2]
ME/CFS Common Data Element (CDE) Project[edit | edit source]
Member of the Baseline/Covariate Working Group, the Neurologic/Cognitive/CNS Imaging Working Group, and the Biomarkers Working Group of the Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Common Data Element (CDE) Project sponsored by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.[3] This working group reviewed data collection instruments widely used by investigators in the ME/CFS field, and either recommended their use unchanged or (more often) proposed some modifications.[4]
