An update on ME/CFS and Long Covid

Join us to hear from Dr Katrina Pears, Research Coordinator for The ME Association, who will summarise what biomedical research is currently telling us about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long Covid. Her overview will draw on the evidence-based NICE Guideline, expert medical opinion, and findings from research into the underlying disease mechanisms.

The ME Association provides effective support and expert information, lobbies local and national governments and is working to improve healthcare for all. It prioritises prudent investment in medical research in the hope that one day there will be effective treatments and even a cure. Since the pandemic, the charity has been welcoming people with Long Covid due to the many similarities with ME/CFS.

This event is suitable for the general public and professionals.

There will also be a chance to ask questions.
