We are funding a new ME/CFS research project on biomarkers and disease mechanisms at the Charité
Hamburg, December 15, 2023
As indicated in our 24-month review, we are pleased to announce today a new research project on ME/CFS biomarkers and disease mechanisms at the Charité.
In January 2024, a new project to research biomarkers and disease mechanisms of ME/CFS will start at the Institute for Medical Immunology at the Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin.
The project entitled "Cell morphology, cell deformability and microclots in ME/CFS" is the doctoral project of Annick Fehrer, biochemist and member of the working group of Prof. Dr. Carmen Scheibenbogen.
The project is funded over three years by the ME/CFS Research Foundation and the Lost Voices Foundation, which cover 2/3 and 1/3 of the costs respectively. The project is the first joint project financing between the two foundations.
🔬This interdisciplinary project investigates changes in the shape and deformability of blood cells as well as the occurrence of microclots. The aim is to gain crucial insights that could contribute to the development of improved diagnostic methods and therapies for ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome).
🤝 In collaboration with renowned researchers such as Jochen Guck and Martin Kräter from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, this project represents a valuable contribution to ME/CFS research and could contribute to improved diagnosis and treatment of this complex disease.
