Strings of Gold

"Validated biomarkers are gold; they are like gold pieces of string that lead to the heart of an illness. They give researchers a foothold on a disorder. What biomarkers do is give researchers the confidence that they can work their way down that string to disentangle what's going on in the disorder. XMRV has been so successful because it's the biggest string found yet in ME/CFS; it’s given them the biggest chance yet to be successful."

From Cort's review on the XMRV conference:
