I’m aware of how attractive the information-transmitting analogy is given the elegance of the theory. A few simple rules when combined form an infinitely complex emergent behavior able to sufficiently explain all observations; what’s not to love about it.
I’m focusing on the epigenetic aspect of neurons due the possibility of the ME/CFS/LongCovid family of conditions being due to silencing of certain genes. The brain is closely linked with the immune system and I think the so while these present as immune conditions I believe it starts out more as a neural condition, maybe microglia. In addition it makes sense to focus on this area more as I can’t consciously restructure the neurons in my brain but I can introduce peptides that change gene expressions.
