They aren't indexed by google.

Thanks and I Googled to clarify what "indexed" meant in this context and if I understood correctly, it means the content can still be found on-line, if someone knew how to search for it, but it would not come up as part of a Google search. So I guess it would be much harder to find but it could be done by someone w/computer skills/background. Thanks again (and someone please correct me if I am wrong).

#IIMEC12 has been awarded the maximum points for Continuing Professional Development:
http://www.investinme.eu/IIMEC12-news-170502.shtml

We previously reported that our seventh Biomedical Research into ME Colloquium in London on 31st May - 1st June had been awarded maximum CPD-accreditation from the Royal Colleges. Now we can report that #IIMEC12 on 2nd June in London has been awarded maximum points also

#IIMEC12 will be the charity's twelfth International ME Conference.

This means that both events will provide 18 points of accreditation for educational purposes. for the two day - colloqium - 12 points. http://www.investinme.eu/IIMEC12-news-170502.shtml

Update on the Pre-Conference evening dinner by Invest in ME Research in their Facebook group:

Our pre-conference dinner is a way of us meeting up and networking before the conference with our colleagues and researchers.

A lot of our friends from Europe and overseas will be attending.

The European ME Alliance will be present.

We are very pleased that a great supporter of Invest In ME Research Jon Campling Actor will be there.

We also have Mike Harley present (Mike has a busy week as his Luxembourg marathon is this weekend) and he will be at #IIMEC12 on Friday - http://investinme.org/ce-IIME-Newslet-1504-02.shtml

Our guest speaker is David Tuller who will be presenting an interesting commentary, on such things as the #PACETrial

David's presentation will be available on the Conference DVD - which can still be ordered in May at the earlybird discounted price.

Last year's pre-conference dinner speaker - Kjersti Krisner will be there also, this year an honorary IiMER-helper also.

There are many others also attending and the evening already has a list of over 100 attendees - making it the largest we have ever had.

News items relating to the conference are here - http://investinme.eu/IIMEC12-news.shtml

Chairman Kathleen McCall has led the charity a long way since that small beginning in 2006 for our first conference.
Here is the chairman's welcome speech - http://investinme.eu/IIMEC12-chairman-message.shtml

For those coming to London - the charity looks forward to welcoming you - and the weather looks to be pleasant - https://weather.com/en-GB/weather/tenday/l/UKXX0085:1:UK

@Jo Best do you know if there are any doctors or researchers from eastern Europe (I am especially interested in countries like Czech republic, Slovak republic, Poland, Hungary) who will attend the conference?
Thanks

You could contact EUROMENE. The European ME association. I don't see those countries listed, but they may have informal contacts.
