Invest in ME International ME Conference
The Invest in ME International ME Conference is an annual medical ME/CFS conference for researchers, clinicians and patients. It is organised by the independent UK charity, Invest in ME, and held in London, England. Speakers at the conference typically include researchers and doctors from around the world. The charity sells DVDs of the conference talks after the event has taken place. In parallel with the conference, the charity also organizes the Biomedical Research into ME Colloquium (BMREC), an event for researchers alone to attend.
