Dear Miriam,
Important update: DecodeME will launch a few weeks later than planned. Key details are in bold.
We know how important this study is to you and everyone in the M.E./CFS community, so we need to make sure everything is 100% right before launching for the 27,000+ people already interested in taking part.
Data protection is one of the things we must get right. Professionals are further testing the study’s web portal and its security, which will take a little more time than expected. Keeping your health information safe is essential, and we know it’s really important to you too from your messages and webinar questions.
We do not yet have an exact date for the launch. We will, of course, update you when we’re ready. You won’t miss it as we’ll email you and post on social media.
Doing the world’s biggest genetic study of M.E./CFS takes time. We appreciate your patience and enthusiasm for the study. We know even a few weeks' wait feels like such a long time when people with M.E./CFS have waited so long for a study like this.
Right now, the team (including patients and their representatives) continues to work really hard. So much is happening behind the scenes – so we wanted to share a couple of things we are excited about.
