The Top 10+ research priorities for ME/CFS are shared Click here to view the Top 10+ priorities  The Top 10+ priorities for research around ME / CFS have been identified.   These priorities have been determined as a result of rigorous work involving thousands of people living with myalgic encephalomyelitis, their families and carers, and health professionals working to support these people. The Rt Hon, Sajid Javid, MP, Secretary of State for Health and Social Care has said, “I welcome the publication of this Priority Setting Partnership which sets out the Top 10+ research priorities for ME/CFS. The Government recognises that myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is an under-researched area and pledges to support research funders and the academic community to respond to this independent report.” Thank you to all who engaged with the project. We hope that your priorities are reflected in the Top 10+.
