    Med Students Still Do Pelvic Exams on Women Under Anesthesia

    I remember this as an issue in the UK news quite some years ago, and googling turns up stuff from 2003, such as this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/2642861.stm ...which indicates that the practice was against GMC guidelines even then but was still frequently being done, and yes, WTF...

    Chris Ponting's project to replicate Mark Davis’s remarkable findings of immune activation in ME/CFS (S McGrath blog)

    Very interesting indeed - this sounds very promising and it's exciting to see a UK researcher jumping to try to replicate something good coming out of the US. I'd like to see more UK research joining in the international effort and trying to speed the whole enterprise up. Thanks very much for...

    S4ME Q&A with Prof Chris Ponting - Question Collection Thread

    Longish post, please bear with me... I was struck yesterday by this tweet from Jen Brea: I agree with her. If my health is going to improve before I'm an old woman (and I've been sick for decades) then treatments need to come in the next five years, not the next ten or twenty. I was...

    I don't see anything about it on the conference schedule (here) - Fluge and Mella don't appear to be presenting at the conference.

    30 & 31 May | Invest in ME Research international colloquium

    The focus on the food continues, though, looking at it, I can't blame anybody (I particularly like the jaunty sole banana on top of the pile of fruit!). :)

    30 & 31 May | Invest in ME Research international colloquium

    Gigantic amounts of discreet silence emanating from the colloquium - just IiMER's bear appears to be on the case, highly focused on the food:

    Webinar: Hot Areas in ME/CFS Research: 2018, Komaroff, 24 May 2018

    @Jonathan Edwards - I've set this YouTube video to start at the point where Dr Komaroff starts talking about the study I mentioned earlier.

    30 & 31 May | Invest in ME Research international colloquium

    I keep forgetting you have to click 'Latest' to see the latest tweets... Anyway, at least people have shown up! That's a shame - I think you would have added a great deal, and it would have been good to have you there when the rituximab trial results are being discussed.

    30 & 31 May | Invest in ME Research international colloquium

    I was hoping that people would tweet within the bounds of keeping those secrets! It's just nice to feel part of things that are important to us but that we're excluded from (including things that we're just too ill to turn up to). I understand why we're excluded in this instance but...
