From Health Rising: “The 2023 NIH ME/CFS Conference is Coming – Register Soon!”

"These plans – always developed by the NIH in-house – are designed to boost a disease’s standing and ultimately result in more funding and resources.”

“With one of its rare ME/CFS conferences looming, each of us has a chance to bolster ME/CFS standing simply by registering for the conference and popping in.”

“The NIH counts everything and it will be counting how many people tune in as an indication of community interest.”

“This conference also provides a novel feature. In an effort to present the human face of ME/CFS, the organizers (I was part of the effort) scattered short “lived experiences” talks by ME/CFS patients throughout the conference.”
