It is not possible to disaggregate funding for research into treatments specifically but further information on this research is available through the NIHR Journals Library at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.journalslibrary.nihr.ac.uk/programmes/" target="_blank">https://www.journalslibrary.nihr.ac.uk/programmes/</a></p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Financial Year</p></td><td><p>£</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013-14</p></td><td><p>561,950</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014-15</p></td><td><p>426,055</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015-16</p></td><td><p>475,676</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016-17</p></td><td><p>554,785</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017-18</p></td><td><p>464,902</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>In terms of future research, the NIHR recognises that CFS/ME is a debilitating condition and is speaking with the UK CFS/ME Research Collaborative and patient representatives about how best to support a joined up approach to high quality research into this complex disorder. The NIHR welcomes funding applications for research into any aspect of human health, including CFS/ME; it is not usual practice to ring-fence funds for particular topics or conditions. Applications are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made on the basis of the importance of the topic to patients and health and care services, value for money and scientific quality.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 04/06/2018 16:03:50 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
