I would be very surprised if a blend of amino acids does anything significant. Only significant result is based on subjective outcome (Chalder Fatigue Scale), but of course this study is placebo-controlled. Some of these amino acids can be used to affect mood, so perhaps that is playing a role.
I think to get any relevant links, your question needs to be more precise. Are you interested in only ME/CFS research? Biomedical only, or all ME/CFS research? In the UK, or worldwide?
Still, I don't quite understand your question. It seems what you want is a list of research proposals that...
I'm a little dissaspointed by the numbers. It seems we're likely stuck around 10k for DNA samples, far shy of the 25k goal.
IMO, it is important to patients because every extra patient adds power to the study. Personally, I would like to know what the project leaders and researchers think...

I agree. His tweets are often quite strange. Also, you can't just up sticks and move a research group, unless you have won a transferrable grant or fellowship, which I don't think he has. He's probably fed up with chasing grant money, as most early-career researchers are.
He is deeply confused, and his arguments can be refuted in seconds, as they have been here and on Twitter. Amazing this man was a professor of evidence-based medicine. He is obsessed with speculation and hypothesis.
It was a case in a young boy—headaches and tiredness since third(!) covid infection. A link with exertion was made, as his Mum said his headaches were worse after he's been to football. Doctor said this fits with long covid, and very briefly brought up the concept of pacing.
Yes, they were active in Forward ME. There are a few smaller charities for which it is not exactly clear how active they are, if at all. I'm glad Remember have made their closure known.
