More from Fane in Fort Lauderdale -
Fane is giving a poster presentation at IACFS and will be giving copies of our matchstick brochure out to delegates passing by.
The matchstick brochure describes the work of IiME and uses the power of art to illustrate the determination of the charity to make change in how ME is researched and treated.
The artwork is given by international artist Wolfgang Stiller.
More about these brochures via this link.
Day 1 of the Professionals day at IACFS and Dr Fluge and Professor Mella are speaking - and good to hear recognition of the collaboration between Fane and Dr Cambridge.
Hopefully it is ok to add this tweet from Cort Johnson - of Dr Vicky Whittemore (NIH) comments about the UK Centre of Excellence
support for the UK Centre of Excellence for ME. 
Here is Fane pictured with Zaher Nahle of SolveCFS and Dr Luis Nacul.
More support for the Centre of Excellence for ME.
Please feel free to send in your
"selfies" to support this development.
Thanks again to Fane.
And thank you Zaher and SolveCFS for sponsoring Fane's trip to IACFS with a grant.

The Biomedical Research Fund (BRF) provides a means to fund biomedical research into ME and avoid the constraints or influence of policies which do not focus on researching ME properly. In addition education is a major part of biomedical research. Students need to attend conferences such as ours, healthcare professionals need to have the latest research presented to them regarding ME and researchers themselves need to meet, network and establish working relationships with each other. Researchers must also begin sharing data and working in co-operation.
Our aim is to build sustainable and developing collaborations with translational biomedical research at the heart of all research. The Invest in ME Research Biomedical Research Fund will be used for the following -
Biomedical Research into ME
Education Regarding ME
Conferences related to ME
Expenses in Sponsoring Presenters to Speak at Conferences
Cost of sponsoring PhD students performing biomedical research into ME
Set up and running of ME Clinic treating severely affected patients with ME
Assisting with equipment and other costs of researchers performing purely biomedical research into ME
Currently the focus of the BRF is toward the proposal for a UK examinations and research facility for ME. If you would like to help in raising funds please contact us.

The Invest in ME International ME Conferences are CPD accredited biomedical conferences which provide a platform for the latest information and biomedical research on myalgic encephalomyelitis. They attract the most renowned speakers from all over the world - and are valuable sources of education and information for healthcare professionals, doctors, nurses, researchers, ME support groups and people with ME. They provide an excellent insight into these areas and the issues currently facing the healthcare and ME patient communities. Our conferences and, later, our Colloquiums have been facilitating interaction and sharing of information between patients, researchers and clinicians for almost 10 years.
The Invest in ME International Biomedical Research into ME Colloquiums began as a way of bringing together researchers from around the world in a round-table discussion of ME research and ideas. Over the years this has broadened to sharing of experiences, data and plans. The charity has now put in place the key building blocks to take ME research into the 21st century with high-quality biomedical research in world class organisations being performed by some of the best researchers.This is a basis for a strategy of international biomedical research which will hold far greater promise of creating proper funding and awareness of biomedical research into ME.

ME stands for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.
Benign Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)/Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome (PVFS) is a multisystem, complex, acquired illness with symptoms related mainly to the dysfunction of the brain, gastro-intestinal, immune, endocrine and cardiac systems. ME/PVFS has been classified as a neurological disorder in the World Health Organisation's International Classification of Diseases since 1969 (ICD 10 G93.3). Since 1992, the term "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome" (CFS) has been included in the Alphabetical Index and indexed to G93.3.
The Chief Medical Officer's Report on the subject of CFS/ME (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis) issued in January 2002 recognises that "CFS/ME should be classed as a chronic condition with long term effects on health, alongside other illnesses such as multiple sclerosis and motor neurone disease
To date there is no known specific medical diagnostic test to determine or confirm a correct diagnosis nor is there any specific treatment for this condition.
