3 charities – Action for M.E., the ME Association and ME Research UK – and a private donor have joined forces to fund the UK’s first biobank of human blood samples for research into the causes of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS).
The biobank will be situated at London’s Royal Free Hospital where it will be able to link in with the extensive research facilities at University College London.
