Join our third PRIME online workshop to learn more about post-exertional malaise (PEM), on Thursday 30 July, 2pm-5pm GMT.
Register here to attend via Zoom.
PEM is the hallmark symptom of ME, where physical or mental activity can cause a delayed worsening of symptoms, often hours or days later. This can include debilitating fatigue, pain, brain fog, and flu-like symptoms.
Unlike normal tiredness, PEM isn’t relieved by rest, and recovery can take days, weeks or longer.
This workshop will ask various questions about PEM, including what it is, what causes it, and how can it best be explained and defined?
You can download the full programme, including information about the talks, here.
Expert speakers include Maree Candish (Science for ME), Professor Mark Faghy (University of Loughborough), Marjon Wormgoor (independent researcher), Professor Todd Davenport (University of the Pacific) and Professor Maureen Hanson (Cornell University).
