Kenny de meirleir.jpg

Kenny L. De Meirleir, MD, PhD, is a Belgian Internal Medicine doctor specializing in ME/CFS who currently serves as the Medical Director of Whittemore Peterson Institute, Nevada.[1] He frequently partners with numerous myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) researchers in the EU, UK, US, and Australia to further the understanding of the pathophysiology of ME/CFS. From 2000-2007, he was an editor of the now defunct research journal, Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. He participated in an earlier clinical trial of Ampligen, an immunomodulator for ME/CFS.

Clinic location[edit | edit source]

Professor De Meirleir runs the Himmunitas clinic in Brussels, Belgium and the Whittemore Peterson Institute in Reno, Nevada, in the United States.
