Members of the Pacific Fatigue Lab traveled to Washington D.C. to support the importance of the breakthrough XMRV retroviral research and its implications for CFS at the October 29 -30 Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Advisory Committee meeting. They also voiced their dismay at the CDC's lack of leadership related to chronic fatigue syndrome and backed formal recommendations made to the Department of Health and Human Services. Participants from PFL included Staci Stevens, Founding Executive Director of the lab; Dr. Chris Snell, chair of the Sport Sciences Department and member of the CFS Advisory Committee; Michelle Mielke, Assistant Professor, Sport Sciences Department; Laura Black, MD, the Medical Director for the lab; and graduate student Harnoor Signh, who is a research assistant in the lab.
