Invest in ME Research (IiMER) announced on Facebook that they will be hosting the European ME Alliance (EMEA) AGM in London after their 2017 International Colloquium and Conference events, and that this year there will be news of a new European member being added to EMEA.
After the great achievement from the Breakfast in Brussels meeting in the EU parliament (http://www.euro-me.org/news-Q12017-002.htm) - with EMEA Belgium organising this superbly) this further strengthens EMEA and will bring the group to a membership from 14 countries.

The European ME Alliance (EMEA) formed the European ME Research Group (EMERG) in 2015.
http://www.investinme.org/em-index.shtml
Amongst the speakers at #BRMEC7 are Professor Olav Mella, Dr Øystein Fluge and Dr Ingrid Gurvin Rekeland from Haukeland University Hospital in Bergen, Norway.
.
IiMER are also funding the participation of four more from the team and their research partners.

This is part of our EMERG concept to encourage international collaboration between good researchers and research centres.

It will also continue to maintain the great collaborative formed with researchers whom IiMER are funding on B-cell research and the UK rituximab clinical trial.

All good for biomedical research into ME and the future for patients and for prospects of improving the research which is underway or planned.

Really happy to hear Fluge and Mella will be there :thumbsup:

I haven't heard of Ingrid, but if she's part of the Haukeland team then I trust she will be good :)

It's great that IinME are providing funding for this
