Science Media Centre

The Science Media Centre is a British Governmental organisation formed in 2000 to encourage more accurate reporting of science in the media. When notable scientific papers are published, the Science Media Centre will often publish a page of "expert opinion" which journalists will then commonly re-purpose in their published work. The Science Media Centre has published a number of expert opinions on ME/CFS.

Criticism
The Science Media Centre has been criticised for being a "lobby group".

Patients have criticised the Science Media Centre for focusing its output on psychological and psychiatric expert opinions on ME/CFS and the fact that they house the disease within their Mental Health section.

It has also been criticised for bias toward corporate interests.
