International Science Symposium for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/ CFS)

Bond University in collaboration with Alison Hunter Memorial Foundation is pleased to host an International Science Symposium for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) in December 2010.

The Symposium, to be held within the Population Health and Neuroimmunology Unit (PHANU), brings together a number of national and international specialist scientists working in the field of ME/ CFS.

ME/ CFS is characterised by neurological ,cardiovascular and myoarthralgic symptoms. Severe forms can present with paresis, seizures, intractable headache and life threatening complications. ME/ CFS may be also associated with metabolic disturbances and chemical intolerance.

This Symposium will explore recent advances in scientific disciplines to gain understanding of the pathomechanisms of this condition.
