Katharine Seton and Fiona Newberry, PhD students working on the gut microbiota studies at the Invest in ME Research Centre of Excellence, presented at the German Institute of Human Nutrition event in Berlin on Monday 11th September 2017: News at: http://www.investinme.org/ce-news-1709-03.shtml

Katharine's presentation was entitled

"Immune reactivity to enterobacteria in ME/CFS"
.
Fiona's presentation was entitled

"Investigating the intestinal virile in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome"
.
This was part of their student knowledge exchange trip and

"a great example where knowledge about ME can be spread to other areas and to other researchers and enables strong international links to be established which will benefit people with ME and their families." http://www.investinme.org/ce-news-1709-03.shtml

(Katherine and Fiona also spoke at the 12th International Invest in ME Conference in London in June, along with fellow PhD students Daniel Vipond and Shen-Yuan Hsieh (Ernie). http://investinme.eu/IIMEC12.shtml)
