Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The Interagency ME/CFS Working Group consists of multiple government agencies and patient ME/CFS patient advocacy organizations interested in research and care issues related to ME/CFS. The working group was established to help coordinate ME/CFS-related efforts across the federal agencies to enhance research efforts, improve treatment options and patient outcomes, promote public outreach, and strengthen workforce development. The working group, which is co-led by NINDS and CDC, met for the first time in August 2020, and will continue to meet regularly to provide updates, discuss issues relevant to ME/CFS research, and identify and foster communication and collaboration across the federal agencies and with ME/CFS stakeholders. |
