About Us
Invest in ME Research (IiMER) was set up with the objective of making a change in how ME was perceived and treated in the media, by health departments and by healthcare professionals. We concentrate on three key areas to concentrate our efforts on - funding for biomedical research, education and lobbying. Our aim is to find, fund and facilitate biomedical research into ME.
Invest in ME Research have been working to establish an international strategy of biomedical research into ME and a UK and European Centre of Excellence for biomedical research into ME.
Help us make ME an illness which is properly understood and where high-quality biomedical research into ME is performed allowing treatments and cures to be found.
