The Thinking the Future London 2020 Conference will be held in London on 27th May 2020.

In 2020 the Thinking the Future conference for young/early career researchers will encapsulate the need to bring in new faces and new ideas to the field of ME research as well as provide a forum for networking for existing young/ecr researchers.

Following the successful 2018 inaugural conference and the 2019 conferences in London and Washington another whole day will be allocated in 2020 for the event, which will take place in London in ME Conference Week.

The event is free for invited and accepted participants who join this network.

Participation

An Early Careers Researcher is defined an individual who is within a few years of the award of their PhD or equivalent professional training, or their first academic appointment.

These events are open to postgraduate students and postdocs involved in biomedical research, and also medical students with an interest in biomedical research into ME.

They provide an international forum where research into ME can be discussed, ideas can be generated and a network built to allow opportunities for those young or early career researchers who are already involved in research into ME, or involved in another research area which may be of relevance to understanding ME.

All applications for participation will be considered by the committee responsible for planning the agenda, which will include existing young researchers.

For those wishing to present please use the contact form below to contact us and arrange for abstracts/ideas to be sent for consideration for the conference.
