Free Webinar: The Science of CFS: Past, Present and Future

Have a phone and a computer? If so, you’re all set to take part in a unique opportunity to get a personal briefing on the science of CFS!

You are invited to join Association president & CEO Kim McCleary and scientific director Suzanne Vernon, PhD, on Wednesday, May 28, at 2 p.m. (EDT) for an overview of the CFS science, presented live via the Internet.

Learn what research has already uncovered about CFS and how it affects the human body. Discover what’s happening now in the field of CFS research. Hear what Dr. Vernon and the Association envision as the next steps on the path to discovery, and find out how The Campaign to Accelerate CFS Research is designed to build the capacity of the scientific community all over the world to find the answers underlying this complex illness.

This free webinar is limited to 1,000 people. Advance registration is required. To learn more and to register for the webinar, visit http://www.cfids.org/webinar/sciencecfs.asp.

A webinar is essentially an online slideshow with the audio portion of the presentation delivered through the phone. Once you register, you’ll get an e-mail reminder the day of the webinar with the phone number and access code for the audio portion as well as the web address to access the online portion of the session. A few minutes before the session begins, simply go to that web page and follow the instructions. Be prepared to dial the phone number and access code on your telephone as prompted. You’ll then be able to listen to the audio presentation by phone while simultaneously watching the slide show on your computer screen.

The webinar will last approximately one hour. During the session, you’ll have the opportunity to transmit questions online.
