Cort revealed that 10 groups have applied for the NIH CFE grants.
Which I gather is more than he expected with a surprise applications from a genetic research center in CT and an unknown Boston application. I think this is actually a really interesting discussion/poll on who should get the grants. Probably this is controversial among patients. I'm normally quite stoic about these things, but this seems particularly important as those centers will probably set the pace for ME/CFS for the foreseeable future in the U.S. One question I have for @Ben Howell or @Janet Dafoe (Rose49) is how close that grant would get or alleviate the $5M annual needs Ron has set out?
