I'm not sure when the videos will become available but I'd also highlight Dr Anna Aschenbrenner's talk that came at the end of day 1. Data from paper in preparation.
Using high-dimensional flow cytometry, they showed changes in NKs. However, they could not find a difference in immune cell subtypes when looking at subgroups based on causative infection (SARS2, EBV, influenza etc). And defined two severity subsets based on transcriptome.
Do you remember what the NK-changes exactly are?
- from the 4th slide, I can see that there are NK cell alterations - higher levels for CD-56
- with Long Covid and infection onset ME CFS patients (vs healthy controls)
All the presentations at the above link for the symposium are in German but this new link has links to recordings of the conference which are all in English.

Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin and the ME/CFS Research Foundation organised the “International ME/CFS Conference 2025“ on 12-13 May 2025 in Berlin. The event was directed at medical professionals, researchers and interdisciplinary experts in the fields of medicine and biology.
In addition to presentations, the two-day conference featured more than 40 scientific posters. Among the posters, 3 outstanding contributions were awarded poster prizes by the ME/CFS Research Foundation via a scientific jury.
Videos, slides and short summaries (the latter provided in cooperation with the German Association for ME/CFS) of the presentations from the conference can be accessed on this website by clicking on one the presentation titles below. Some videos and slides may not be available or may be released later, due to limitations regarding unpublished data from ongoing research.
