Dr. Akiko Iwasaki (Sterling Professor of Immunobiology and Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology at Yale University) is the first recipient of Solve’s ME/CFS Catalyst Award in support of her study, “Probing Functional Autoantibodies in Patients with ME/CFS.” In this webinar, Dr. Iwasaki will talk to Solve CEO Emily Taylor about the study, which focuses on […]
Simmaron Research is the second recipient of Solve’s ME/CFS Catalyst Award in support of its study,” “Low Dose Rapamycin in ME/CFS, Long-COVID, and Other Infection-Associated Chronic Conditions.” Read a preprint from Phase 1 of the trial here. The study advances an already FDA-approved drug for reducing key symptoms of ME/CFS and Long Covid, repurposing rapamycin […]
Chronic illnesses such as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and Long COVID, which lack clinical biomarkers, present challenges around diagnosis, symptom reporting, and monitoring. That’s why the unhide® Solve Together Unified Platform–which is participant-led with continuous digital data collection–offers some advantages over traditional site-based clinical research models. The easy-to-use, secure platform allows patients to contribute data through […]
For the first time, scientists have developed a simple, accurate blood test that can potentially identify Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) — a long-term, debilitating condition that affects millions of patients worldwide. The study (published in the Journal of Translational Medicine), led by the University of East Anglia in partnership with Oxford BioDynamics, […]
Caring for someone with ME/CFS is an act of deep love–and preparation is one of the most meaningful ways to protect their future. Hosted by Solve M.E. Director of Advocacy […]
Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist medications, like semaglutide, are injectable or oral drugs that mimic the natural GLP-1 hormone, which helps regulate insulin levels. Thus, these medicines help control blood sugar in people with Type 2 diabetes and promote substantial weight loss for individuals with a high body mass index (BMI) by slowing digestion, reducing appetite, […]
Dr. Liisa Selin, Dr. Ayano Kohlgruber, and Dr. Roshan Kumar received a Solve ME/CFS Catalyst Award for their study searching for the exact proteins recognized by T-cell receptors from a person with ME/CFS and a person with Long Covid. These disease-associated T cells include “exhausted” CD8+ T cells and “double-positive” CD4+/CD8+ T cells (which are […]
The DecodeME Project is the largest genetic study of ME/CFS conducted to date and has identified eight genetic signals where people with ME/CFS tend to differ from those without, linked […]
In 2025, Simmaron Research was the second recipient of Solve’s ME/CFS Catalyst Award in support of its study, “Low Dose Rapamycin in ME/CFS, Long-COVID, and Other Infection-Associated Chronic Conditions.” The study hypothesizes that mTOR inhibition through rapamycin may address observed findings of autophagy impairment and symptoms in a subset of patients with ME/CFS and other […]
Solve M.E. is proud to join our hosts from the Bateman Horne Center for a special edition of their program "Coffee with a Clinician" in observance of Severe ME/CFS Awareness Month. Solve Vice President of Scientific Programs Dr. Jessica Maya, along with representatives from Open Medicine Foundation, #MEAction, and the authors of What is Myalgic […]
As part of our commitment to advancing science that brings real hope to people living with ME/CFS or Long Covid, Solve has selected Dr. Jay H. Chung (National Institutes of Health) as a recipient of our latest ME/CFS Catalyst Award. Dr. Chung’s groundbreaking study, “Mitochondrial Stabilizer IVO-21 As Therapy for ME/CFS,” is focused on developing […]
