 TRIPLE YOUR IMPACT during Triple Giving November | All Donations to OMF are TRIPLED through December 2

From OMF’s CEO, Linda Tannenbaum: A Message of Hope and Action

At Open Medicine Foundation (OMF), our purpose is clear: to revolutionize the way we understand and treat chronic complex multi-system diseases, with initial focus on ME/CFS and Long COVID, by illuminating their mechanisms, accelerating effective treatments, and empowering personalized care.

Our mission is to drive and fund global collaborative research that unlocks disease biology, delivers precise diagnostics, and advances treatments—giving every patient a pathway to care and hope.

We envision a world where ME/CFS, Long COVID, and related diseases are understood, rapidly diagnosed, and effectively treated—so every patient can live fully.

To see why this work is so urgent, I invite you to watch this short video. It highlights the critical need to accelerate research and shows how OMF is leading global collaborative research to bring answers—and hope—to millions.
