Invest in ME

The OPENING of the WHITTEMORE-PETERSON INSTITUTE for NEURO-IMMUNE DISEASES


"Vision without action is merely a dream.
Action without vision just passes the time.

Vision with action can change the world."

Since Annette Whittemore came to the two-day 2nd Invest in ME International ME/CFS Conference in 2007, accompanied by Dr Daniel Peterson - the WPI have had a permanent slot reserved and have attended each IiME conference.

The conferences have borne witness to the amazing progress which has been made by WPI and the determination and integrity which has been a hallmark of Dr Dan Peterson's work.

In a world where doing nothing about the scandal of ME has been the norm for governments, where immoral and corrupt or even criminal acts are perpetrated on ME patients and indirectly on their families by individuals and organizations who wish to maintain their influence, where it is easier for society to ignore rather than face up to the scandal of ME - the WPI shines as a beacon of hope for millions that their lives will improve.

The Whittemore Peterson Institute for Neuro Immune Disease aims to bring effective treatments to patients with illnesses that are caused by acquired dysregulation of both the immune system and the nervous system, often resulting in life long disease and disability. The WPI will facilitate and advance patient care; research the pathophysiology of neuro-immune diseases such as ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, atypical MS, and autism; develop therapeutics, diagnostics and prevention strategies for this spectrum of diseases; and advance and support medical education and physician training. The WPI will be based at the University of Nevada School of Medicine, Centre for Molecular Medicine, - a state-of-the-art 100,000 square foot facility on the Reno campus. The Centre houses portions of several university departments and includes research laboratories and clinical space.

Invest in ME would like to congratulate the Whittemore-Peterson Institute, its founders Mrs Annette Whittemore and Dr Daniel Peterson and Research Director Dr Judy Mikovits, Dr Vince Lombardi and the others who make up this brave new world.

And we would like to thank the Whittemore family for their often unrecognized yet crucial support and belief in this venture.

The Whittemore-Peterson Institute for Neuro-Immune Diseases offers the hope to millions that proper science will prevail and overcome the ignorance and corruption which has been allowed to destroy lives of people with ME.

As we begin our attempt to create a similar centre of Excellence for ME in the UK Invest in ME wish to thank publicly the WPI for their vision, determination and courage in showing the world the direction - in not looking at things the way they are, and asking why ...but in dreaming of things that never were, and asking why not?

Congratulations to the WPI from Invest in ME and our supporters and best wishes for the future.

Witness now a new era in ME/CFS research.

Bello questo discorso, anche l'accenno alla disonestà dei governi e di chi li supporta.
Speriamo che attorno ai Whittemore riescano ad aggregarsi altre associazioni in tutto in mondo, comprese quelle italiane, in modo da raggiungere una vera forza, anche di fronte ai governi.
