Research and Innovation. The MRC supports research relating to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic
Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) in response to high-quality proposals from the research
community.</p><p> </p><p>The MRC does not generally ring-fence funding for specific
conditions, however CFS/ME is an identified priority area for the MRC. Proposals are
particularly encouraged in areas that explore the underpinning mechanisms of CFS/ME
(including immune dysregulation), pain, improved sub-phenotyping and stratification
of CFS/ME disease, and mechanisms of CFS/ME in children.</p><p> </p><p>All proposals
are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made
according to their scientific quality and importance to human health.</p><p> </p>
