=== Funding === '''Update: New, if Belated, Gov't Interest in CFS Encourages Patients'''<ref>{{citation |last = Firth|first = Shannon | date = 2 January 2016 | title = Update: New, if Belated, Gov't Interest in CFS Encourages Patients|url= http://www.medpagetoday.com/Neurology/GeneralNeurology/55489|newspaper= MedPage Today|location= New York|access-date= }}</ref> ''MedPage Today: Neurology'' By: Shannon Firth. (02 Jan 2016) "In February, the National Academy of Medicine published a report attempting to better define the condition known as chronic fatigue syndrome, also called myalgic encephalomyelitis; in September, we reported that advisers to the Department of Health and Human Services recommended increasing funding for research into the condition.The following is a look at what has happened since that story." '''NIH to double funding for chronic fatigue syndrome, but patient distrust remains'''<ref>{{citation |last = Wadman | first = Meredith | date = 10 November 2016 | title = NIH to double funding for chronic fatigue syndrome, but patient distrust remains|url= http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/11/nih-double-funding-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-patient-distrust-remains|newspaper= Science magazine|location= Washington, D.C.|access-date= }}</ref> ''Science magazine'' By: Meredith Wadman. (10 Nov 2016) "The most anticipated speaker late last month at an international conference devoted to the mysterious malady commonly known as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) was not a scientist with a hot new finding—although there was excitement about new research in the air. Rather, it was a [[National Institutes of Health]] (NIH) official bearing good news to a community that has long existed on the margins of the biomedical research establishment. [[Vicky Whittemore]], the agency's CFS point person in Bethesda, Maryland, delivered on a promise that NIH Director [[Francis Collins]] made last year by announcing that NIH spending for research on the poorly understood disease should rise to roughly $15 million in 2017, doubling the estimated $7.6 million handed out in 2016." '''Biological underpinnings of chronic fatigue syndrome begin to emerge'''<ref>{{citation |last = Maxmen | first = Amy | date = 28 March 2017 | title = Biological underpinnings of chronic fatigue syndrome begin to emerge|url= http://www.nature.com/news/biological-underpinnings-of-chronic-fatigue-syndrome-begin-to-emerge-1.21721|newspaper= Nature|location= London|access-date= }}</ref> ''Nature'' By: Amy Maxmen. (28 Mar 2017) "Before his 33-year-old son became bedridden with chronic fatigue syndrome, biochemist Ronald Davis created technologies to analyse genes and proteins faster, better and more cheaply. Now he aims his inventions at a different target: the elusive inner workings of his son’s malady."
