Interview with Professor Chris Ponting about the DecodeME results.
Our genetics results webinar recording is now available! Thank you to the 2500+ people who joined us live last week. For those who want to watch back, or who couldn’t attend you can find it on our new website, here: shorturl.at/Uh8xb

As we approach the end of August, the new DecodeME website, over on the University of Edinburgh, will now be the central place for our updates and contact information. You can find our new website here: decodeme.ed.ac.uk

“This solid scientific data from DecodeME brings new hope. I look forward to seeing where these discoveries lead for pwME, & their families & carers.” -Claire Tripp, DecodeME PPI. A huge thanks to our participants & supporters for making DecodeME possible.

Check out The Guardian’s Science Weekly podcast on ‘Can science crack the mystery of ME?’ to hear scientists discuss ME/CFS and to hear from Nicky, a DecodeME participant. theguardian.com/science/audio/…
"Knowing that my DNA was a part of this study gives me a real sense of being part of something that is both exciting and could be the start of real change" We are incredibly grateful to every DecodeME participant. We would not be where we are today without you – thank you.

(1/2) We have been blown away by the public response to our initial DNA results. We’ve been delighted to be featured in a range of news outlets, radio programs & articles. A huge thanks to those who helped spread the word & have helped us put ME/CFS research into the public eye.




“I am proud that this study was run differently, with lived experience at its heart. Proud that our community stepped up en masse to participate and proud that we are at the forefront of scientific research into this debilitating illness." - Sian Leary, DecodeME PPI

“DecodeME shows the incredible level of support that the ME/CFS patient community can give to research that involves them on a deep and meaningful level. Without the community, we could not have achieved all that we have.” Andy Devereux-Cooke (PPI Member and Co-Investigator)

See you soon for our genetic results webinar! Spots are limited to 3000, and registering does not guarantee a spot. Don't worry - we will also be sharing it live to our Facebook page at the time facebook.com/decodeMEstudy as well as recording it so that you can watch it back.

Together we’ve marked a turning point, and on behalf of the DecodeME team - thank you 🙏
