The ME Association awards Decode ME the Howes Goudsmit Award 2025

The ME Association are pleased to announce that we have awarded DecodeME the Howes-Goudsmit Award 2025 for their extensive work and commitment to their genome-wide association study.

The Decode ME team is led by Professor Chris Ponting (Chair of Medical Bioinformatics, University of Edinburgh & Decode ME Chief Investigator), Sonya Chowdhury (CEO of Action for ME) and Andy Devereux-Cooke (Patient Representative and Co-Investigator at DecodeME) and they represent a much wider team of individuals involved in the DecodeME project.

The DecodeME team have informed the MEA that they intend to use the £5,000 prize money on ME/CFS research that builds on DecodeME with the current first priority being a whole genome sequencing project, Sequence ME and Long Covid.
