ME Research UK

Informing, influencing and investing in ME research globally. The primary aim of ME Research UK is to fund biomedical research into ME/CFS – to find its cause, develop effective treatments and ultimately discover a cure. ME/CFS is a debilitating illness which affects at least 250,000 people in the UK, but is neither well understood nor, in many cases, properly recognised.We also have a mission to 'Energise ME Research', which involves raising awareness of the need for biomedical research into ME/CFS globally, and providing high quality information on all aspects of the illness for a wide range of audiences – from summarising and appraising scientific literature on ME/CFS to informing the policy agenda.
