| Description: | The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite new cooperative agreement applications for the Data Management and Coordinating Center (DMCC), which supports the Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) Collaborative Research Centers (CRC). This FOA will support the DMCC (U24) cooperative agreement that will focus on providing the infrastructure and support to the individual ME/CFS CRCs in their activities. Data management for efficient data collection as well as data mining and data sharing will be addressed in the data management and coordinating center (DMCC), as well as coordination of tools to identify and access available ME/CFS biospecimens. The ME/CFS CRCs will establish a network to facilitate research through: 1) collaborative basic and/or clinical research on ME/CFS; 2) provide and maintain tools for data and biospecimen sharing; 3) access to information related to ME/CFS for basic and clinical researchers, academic and practicing physicians, healthcare professionals, patients, and the lay public; and 4) facilitation of community outreach and engagement in the research activities. |
