Professor Stephen Holgate has been knighted for services to medical research in the 2020 Queen’s Birthday Honours List.

Stephen, who works as Medical Research Council Clinical Professor of Immunopharmacology and Honorary Consultant Physician within Southampton University’s Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Southampton NHS Trust, has spent his entire 45-year career studying human disease and is deeply involved with research into M.E.

Stephen is a member of the Action for M.E. Research Panel, which helps develop our strategy for research and monitors the progress of research funded by our charity. Stephen has also been one of the leading forces behind getting funding for the DecodeME study – the world’s largest M.E. study.

We’d like to congratulate Stephen on receiving this recognition of his work and we look forward to continuing to work with him going forward.
