The list is for: anyone living with a chronic illness or disability that causes energy impairment, fatigue or pain; allies of the above; researchers working on ELCs and disability. This list will be used to: communicate updates from our research on ELCs; recruit participants or survey respondents for research projects about ELCs and chronic illness and disability; share opportunities to get involved in projects about chronic illness and disability, for example advisory roles, and voluntary or paid roles; promote events directly related to ELCs and chronic illness, for example webinars; share publications and other resources directly related to ELCs and chronic illness.----------- This is an announcement list, managed by Bethan Evans and Catherine Hale. Please contact the list managers if you want to share research information on the list. We will share information about our own projects, as well as others that we believe will benefit the ELC and chronic illness communities. Please note: This list is not for promoting products or services. This list is for social research into ELCs and disability, not for biomedical research. We are not able to do detailed checks on research calls that we might share on this list that are not our own, so please do check carefully the information provided by other researchers. We regret that due to our limited capacity we unable to answer emails about personal circumstances.
