Myth #1: ME/CFS is a mental health condition. ❌

ME/CFS is a serious biological illness. It affects the body's core systems, and for millions of people it upends their ability to work, study, or even leave home.Swipe to see what the science shows. ➡️

ME/CFS is widely misunderstood, and those misconceptions can have real consequences for people living with the disease.

Swipe through as we separate some of the most common myths about ME from the facts. ➡️

This post kicks off a six-part series. Over the next several days, we’ll be taking a closer look at each of these myths, breaking down why they’re wrong and what the evidence actually tells us.

Help us challenge misinformation by following along and sharing this series.

On October 20th, Solve M.E. is bringing our community together for the 2026 Community Address: Shaping What Comes Next, a live conversation about how we are thinking about science and advocacy as we approach the midterms, and your role in what comes next.

For two years, this community has been playing defense, protecting federal programs and holding the line while research funding and the agencies we depend on were pulled apart. But holding the line was never the goal. With a new Congress ahead, we are planning to make the most of the opportunity to rebuild the research infrastructure this field runs on; and to make sure ME/CFS and associated conditions are part of that rebuild instead of left out again.

Join President & CEO, Emily Taylor, VP of Scientific Programs, Jessica Maya, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer, Sadie Whittaker, PhD, and Director of Advocacy, Monique Wike, as we lay out the plan for the year ahead and talk about your role in it.

🗓 Monday, October 20 · 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET · Live on Zoom · Recorded & live-captioned

Register today for our free webinar, “The SIGNAL Study: Using Home-Based Treatments to Advance ME/CFS and Long Covid Research.”

Solve selected the Renegade Research team for a Catalyst award to fund the SIGNAL study, which is built around a device lending library through which people diagnosed with ME/CFS and Long Covid may borrow promising therapeutic devices, shipped directly to their homes at no cost, for a three-month lending period.

While borrowing, participants contribute standardized longitudinal data through the Brain Inflammation Collaborative unhide® online health and research platform. This allows each lending cycle to be a real-world research opportunity.

In this webinar, we’ll hear from Renegade Research team members–scientists and people living with ME/CFS and Long Covid–as they discuss the study's goals, its patient-centered design, how results will be shared quickly to help patients, clinicians, and researchers make more informed decisions, and how you can get involved.

Solve is now accepting applications for our Ramsay Research Grant Program!

This is the 10-year anniversary of the Ramsay program, which marks a decade of investing in the ME/CFS research workforce, bringing new investigators into the field, and helping promising ideas develop into larger, sustained research programs.

Since its inception in 2016, the program has supported early-stage, high-impact pilot studies designed to generate preliminary data, catalyze larger downstream funding, and expand the scientific workforce for post-infectious chronic diseases, with a particular focus on ME/CFS and Long Covid

Solve has invested over $1.6 million in Ramsay grants, and recipients have gone on to secure over $105 million in follow-on funding – an amazing 66 x return on investment.

Some previous Ramsay winners who’ve gone on to secure significant follow-on funding for their research include Dr. Jarred Younger, Dr. Liz Worthey, Dr. Carmen Scheibenbogen, and Dr. Liisa Selin, all of whom have moved the science forward in meaningful ways.

If you’d like to join their ranks and get support for your research, we encourage you to apply for a Ramsay Research Grant today.

We’re currently soliciting proposals for:

–PhD Student Award: $50,000 for one year

–Postdoctoral / New Faculty / Returning Faculty Awards: Up to $100,000 over two years

–Collaborative Research Award: up to $150,000 over two years

Get more info and apply here:

We’re accepting applications through Friday, Nov. 13.
