The Office of Research on Women's Health, in collaboration with the Trans-NIH ME/CFS Working Group, hosted an NIH State of Knowledge Workshop on ME/CFS on April 7-8, 2011, to bring together patients, advocates, and scientists from across the nation to review and discuss the opportunities and gaps in ME/CFS research. Topics covered at the workshop included overlapping categories to address the multidisciplinary nature of the illness, including: infectious diseases, systems biology, immunology, neurology, exercise physiology and energy metabolism, diagnosis and biomarkers, treatment, and opportunities for communication.

The report from the workshop is available here.
