    Brief

    The Medical Research Council (MRC) is prioritizing research funding for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) studies. Researchers can apply through any of MRC's existing grant and fellowship schemes, including doctoral training programs, postdoctoral fellowships, and research project grants. Applications are evaluated using standard peer review processes, with ME/CFS proposals receiving priority consideration when they achieve the same median ranking score as competing applications. This means your ME/CFS research has enhanced chances of funding approval compared to non-prioritized research areas. Eligible applicants include individual researchers, research groups, and institutions. Funding levels and project timelines vary depending on the specific grant scheme selected.
