Christopher Ronald Snell, PhD, is the Scientific Director of Workwell Foundation, Ripon, California. He directs the Pacific Fatigue Lab at the Department of Health, Exercise, and Sport Sciences, at the University of the Pacific, Stockton, California, USA.[1]

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee[edit | edit source]

Dr. Snell was Chair of the Health and Human Services's Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee committee from 04/01/07-04/01/11.[2]

Open letter to The Lancet[edit | edit source]

Two open letters to the editor of The Lancet urged the editor to commission a fully independent review of the PACE trial, which the journal had published in 2011. In 2016, Dr. Snell, along with 41 colleagues in the ME/CFS field, signed the second letter.
