OUR MISSION

The Nightingale Research Foundation is a Canadian registered charitable organization dedicated to the study and treatment of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (M.E.) and related illnesses. 

​

We have been investigating M.E. patients since 1984. These thousands of case studies have formed the basis of our research into the causes and treatment for symptoms, and have led to a continual enhancement of our diagnostic protocols. We are now integrating the knowledge gained from this case-based research as we re-define the disease “of a thousand names”.

​

We collaborate with other medical organizations worldwide, and disseminate information to researchers, to the legal and advocate community, to healthcare professionals, and to patients and their caregivers.
