Research News from Fane Mensah

[Jo Best]

Fane Mensah is being funded by Invest in ME Research for the B-cell research based at UCL. Here, he gives an interesting update on his collaboration with Christopher Armstrong, which is supported by a Solve ME/CFS Initiative Ramsay award, and the BSc internship at UCL of Isabelle de Rooij from Hogeschool Rotterdam in the Netherlands - http://www.investinme.org/ce-news-1702-01.shtml

From Invest in ME Research

The article by Fane shows the importance of Invest in ME Research's strategy of international collabration in research into ME.

The meeting between Fane and Chris (and Zaher Nahle from Solve CFS) came about because the charity invited all of them to the #BRMEC6 Colloquium.
The article also demonstrates the importance of our strategy of funding students in research into ME - a strategy proven to be successful and making a real difference.

We will try to continue this but we do need support.

As we fund future phases of the work to build the UK Centre of Excellence for MEfoundations then more demands are made on the funds we have.

We welcome support to establish the UK Centre of Excellence for ME.

Ways to help us are shown in the column at the right of our page.

Our current funding target for medical students for the Centre of Excellence for ME, including the students mentioned by Fane in his article, is shown to the right.
