Advocacy Alert: 07/14/2005 

Today the National Institutes of Health (NIH) issued a Request for Applications seeking research proposals on “Neuroimmune Mechanisms and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.” The announcement states that approximately $4,000,000 has been set aside for successful applications, including an intention to fund 6-10 new studies.

The CFIDS Association of America has been campaigning for the release of this RFA and the related funding for two years.
