Through the Ramsay Program, Solve M.E. invests in research studies in ME/CFS or long-COVID with a particular emphasis on engaging young investigators and researchers new to the field. Collaborative proposals (involving 2 or more research groups) and studies that examine the similarities and differences between ME/CFS and long-COVID are encouraged.
There are two types of grants available:
- Lab-based Research Grants, ranging from $35,000 to $55,000 for a one-year period, with the possibility of renewal for projects yielding promising results
- Data-only Grants to support studies that will analyze the data in the You + ME Registry. These have an upper limit of $10,000 for a 6 month period, with the possibility of renewal for projects yielding promising results
