Where Discovery Drives Positive Outcomes
We are a world-class research facility focusing on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), long COVID, Gulf War Illness (GWI) and rare illnesses.
Our first priority will always be patients. We promote patient engagement in research through understanding the pathophysiology of ME/CFS, long COVID and GWI, discovering screening/diagnostic testing and establishing effective pharmacotherapeutics using laboratory models that are implemented through clinical trials.
Our research improves patient outcomes in the areas of preventative medicine, social and clinical care, and public health.
