This week, in recognition of Veterans' Day we'd like to highlight the Discovery Forum presentation of Dr. Nancy Klimas of Nova Southeastern University. Dr. Klimas has more than 30 years of professional experience and has achieved international recognition for her research and clinical efforts in Myalgic Encephalomyeltis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and Gulf War Illness (GWI). Up to 250,000 veterans suffer from GWI and, as Dr. Klimas presented, "clinically, there is no difference between ME/CFS patients and Gulf War Illness patients.'' Check out Dr. Klimas' presentation at last month's Discovery Forum here.
