Landmark ME study will map patients’ DNA in mission to find cure

The government will provide £4.75 million in funding to British scientists who aim to create a test to reliably identify chronic fatigue syndrome

DNA sequencing study to help pinpoint biology of ME gets £4.7m

The UK government has given nearly £5 million to fund full sequencing of the DNA of 6,000 people with ME using the best available technology. This will help scientists home in on what is really driving the disease. And will probably be the biggest study of its kind for any disease. The UK government has committed £4.7 million directly to ME/CFS research through an award from its Office for Life Sciences to the landmark study Sequence ME & Long C…
