@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research Our aim is to use the European @YoungEmerg group to form a part of an international group of early career researchers for ME

#mecfs #brmec12 #iimec15 #YEMERG03 #EMERG23 #research #cpd

@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research To this end we have approached USA, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand & South African contacts to begin to set up/facilitate the collaboration of
this international early career researcher network for
#mecfs
@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL #brmec12 #iimec15 #research

@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research and will continue to support and develop this - with the USA workshop planned for December

@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research We welcomed several new members to the group - from Germany, Austria and Iceland - which now expands this group into a powerful organisation for research in Europe

@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research @euromeresearch #EMERG23 meetings consequently made it possible to agree on 1 powerful European application to EU for funding rather than multiple efforts
& less chance of success
Common sense prevailing = patients benefiting

@YoungEmerg @euromeresearch @EUROMEALL @ERC_Research We even managed to squeeze in an informal @EUROMEALL meeting to discuss synergies and future plans in Europe to benefit pateints
