I don't understand this. How can stuff presented at a meeting possibly be confidential? Confidential from whom? Who decided who could hear it and who could not? How is that science?Due to the confidential science discussed during the first two days of this meeting we cannot share talk specifics but we are starting off the day with a talk by Vicky Whittemore from the NIH!
Scientific research that is still in progress and not published or ready for the public is being presented and therefor cannot be shared on social media. This part of the meeting is scientists presenting current and ongoing research results, discussing, and brainstorming. On Friday research will be presented to the public.I don't understand this.

These are great photos. We don't see many pictures of Ashley and she looks beautiful. Wish you could be at the event too. Take care @Janet Dafoe (Rose49)View attachment 21508 View attachment 21509 View attachment 21507 Hi Everyone!
Ron and Ashley arrived in London today and were able to walk around London a little before collapsing in their hotel. Linda arrived later tonight. I am posting little updates on twitter, but I thought I'd post my tweets here too, with photos they send me. Ashley will be tweeting on the @OpenMedF twitter account. She is also goiing to make a video of Ron at some point. I'm home with Whitney. I'm sad not to be able to go! It's hard. I'm going to try to add a couple of photos now using my phone!
This is amazing! Ashley thank you for everything you are doing! You are our voice, ears and apparently our eyes - thank you for letting us in on the convention. @AshleyHalcyoneHView attachment 21528 A room full of scientists working together to fight ME/CFS!
That's MOLD on Ron's tie!
They used to wear a tie with an helix on it. So this tie might have some important meaning indeed...

Thank you for letting people know!Just a thought for this thread: May 31st is the last day of the earlybird price of the IIMEC12 DVD.
This will be the full presentations of the public conference day (June 2nd) and the pre-conference evening dinner presentation by David Tuller (not the talks from these two days of the researchers colloquium).
