Long COVID is a complex challenge that affects multiple organ systems and requires an interdisciplinary research approach. The German Centers for Health Research (DZG) bring together expertise in a broad spectrum of diseases - including cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, as well as neurological, metabolic, infectious, oncological, pediatric, and mental health conditions.

For those affected by Long COVID, research is not just about understanding the disease but about finding solutions to improve their lives. This includes people suffering from myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), a debilitating post-infectious disease that is in urgent need of more research and better clinical care.
