European ME Research Group

A new vision of research into ME in Europe

The European ME Research Group (EMERG) is a network of European ME researchers who formed to collaborate and share knowledge in research into myalgic encephalomyeltis (ME).

The group is creating a strategy of biomedical research that will allow accumulation of data based on collaboration and sharing of experiences and knowledge, and will assist in expanding capacity of research leading to progress in developing a rapid pathway to finding cause(s) and treatment(s) for ME.
In addition the group is creating the infrastructure for joint European research into ME.

Who is Involved

The major European countries who conduct biomedical research into ME are working together in EMERG to establish a startegy of high-quality, coordinated biomedical research into ME.
EMERG cooperates with the clinicians in the European ME Clinicians Council (EMECC) and with European ME patient groups and charities within the European ME Alliance (EMEA) to provide a powerful combination of high-quality research, clinical expertise and patient participation.
The building of new research and the accumulation of shared data based on collaboration and experiences allows rapid progress in the building of a base of European fundamental research into ME. By collaborating across Europe we can harness the best talents from the best institutions who are intent on working together.
