Take Action for Equal Funding at NIH

Author:

ME/CFS patients deserve Equal Funding at the National Institutes of Health!

Now is the time to act. Two scientific reports in two months by experts outside of the ME or CFS field say the same thing: “…more research is urgently needed.” A window of opportunity has opened. Now we must work together to push NIH to increase funding for research.

Join us by emailing the Secretary of Health and Director of NIH for equal funding for ME/CFS research!
