An Open Day on Research into ME


The deadline for input to this meeting is 9th January

ME Public Engagement Event

Invest in ME Research and The Quadram Institute are arranging a Public Engagement Event in Norwich on 7th February 2020.

The event will be with Professor Simon Carding and others associated with the research being funded by Invest in ME Research, and particular emphasis will be put on the planned clinical trial being set up at Quadram.

The Quadram Institute is a new centre for microbiome research on the Norwich Research Park with a mission to deliver healthier lives through innovation in gut health, microbiology and food.

IiMER and Quadram are keen to discuss the planned research with patients and carers, and wish to get views and additional insights to help us shape our future research. We will be discussing logistics for this meeting and will be meeting in the New Year to plan the event.

So we are inviting patients, carers and supporters to send us any input to the meeting.
If you have specific issues or questions that you feel should be addressed at the public meeting then we are now collecting this information in order to plan the agenda.

Please use the CONTACT FORM below to send any questions or information that you would like addressed at the meeting.


The meeting will be on Friday 7th February 2020 in the new Quadram Institute building near the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital; postcode NR4 7UQ.

More details will be provided nearer the time by Quadram Institute.

The event will be on the morning of 7th February - the likely time being 10:30 - 12:00.

Some light refreshments will be available.

The venue should have free on-site parking available for attendees.
