==Research== *[[Medical Research Council]] (MRC) *[[National Institute for Health Research]] (NIHR) *In 1996 the influential [[:File:1996 UK Chronic Fatigue Syndrome report.pdf | Report of a joint working group of the Royal Colleges of Physicians, Psychiatrists and General Practitioners]] was published by the [[Royal College of Psychiatrists]], the [[Royal College of General Practitioners]] and the [[Royal College of Physicians]]. The royal colleges reported stated "There is consensus on the importance of a [[biopsychosocial]] approach to aetiology, assessment, and treatment and the need for further research". It was criticised in a ''Lancet'' editorial [http://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lancet/PIIS0140-6736(05)64917-3.pdf Frustrating survey of chronic fatigue] which stated that "The condition shall now be called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and not myalgic encephalomyelitis(ME), the report decrees" and "The sixteen-strong committee was top heavy with psychiatric experts, so the emphasis on psychological causes and management (introduction of [[Graded exercise therapy |graded exercise]] and [[Cognitive behavioral therapy |cognitive behavior therapy]]) is no surprise". In response to a written question by [[Carol Monaghan]] MP, the UK government confirmed in May 2018 that [[biomedical]] funding for the 2014-2015, 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 financial years, including that from non-government sources, was Β£280,442, Β£295,626 and Β£130,958 respectively.<ref>[https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-question/Commons/2018-05-17/145357/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome:Written question - 145357]</ref>
