We are very pleased to announce that ME Research has awarded a new research grant to Prof. Yan Yiannakou of Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
ME/CFS is relatively common among patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and the two conditions share a number of similarities which suggest they might be linked. The team will explore this association by looking at changes in immune activation and the gut microbiome in patients with ME/CFS and/or IBS.
