Core Purpose and Values

Science for ME is an independent, patient-led, international forum for people with ME/CFS and the carers, clinicians, scientists and advocates who support us.

Our goal is to provide a platform to discuss all aspects of this disease, with a special focus on science, support, and advocacy.

We value four things especially:

• high quality scientific research, which will be necessary to produce effective treatments;
• open, critical discussion of claims and ideas;
• mutual support and respect;
• equality.
