The INTERNATIONAL IiME ME/CFS Conference 2007

CONFERENCE REVIEW 

From IiME 

The 2nd International ME/CFS Conference 2007 took place in early May 2007 in London and was attended by presenters and delegates from 12 countries, from Europe, USA, Canada and even South Korea.

Invest in ME would like to thank all those who took part in the conference for contributing to the wonderful atmosphere which was present during both days of the conference. Many travelled from afar and the conference was a success because of the character and of all.

The atmosphere at the conference showed the positive and forward-looking side of the ME community around the world.

We believe that everyone left not only with an enhanced knowledge gained from the conference but also with renewed hope for the future treatment and possible cure for myalgic encephalomyelitis. The breadth of knowledge, science and experience regarding ME, as discussed and presented at the conference, is not only impressive but also exciting. 

We hope that the many contacts which were established at the conference will continue and we hope to remain in contact with as many of you as possible. To see renowned experts on ME discussing with each other and forming or re-enforcing collaborative efforts was reward enough for hosting the conference.

To turn into reality our efforts to form a world alliance of campaigning ME Support organisations was also justification for the conference.

And then there were the presentations from our distinguished speakers. An amazing amount of knowledge was presented showing the organic nature of myalgic encephalomyelitis.

Invest in ME published its first Journal of IiME, which also served as a conference brochure. This can be downloaded from the link above.

We do value and appreciate all the comments and feedback which we received and we shall use these to attempt to improve the conference for 2008.

Invest in ME have produced a DVD of the conference and it can be ordered here.

The complete presentation materials are available and included on the conference DVD, as they were on last year's DVD - available here.

Many thanks for all of the support we received.

Best Wishes from all at Invest in ME
