Professor Staines, from the National Centre for Neuroimmunology and Emerging Diseases at Griffith University in Queensland, will be at the Henty Community Club for an event, which includes supper and social bowls.
He will talk about chronic fatigue syndrome as well as the progress of research into development a diagnostic test.
Raising money for research into chronic fatigue syndrome, which is also more properly known myalgic as encephalomyelitis, has become a goal for the Henty community after resident Ainslie Campbell was diagnosed with the condition.
Money raised by a Henty screening of the film Unrest – which was made by an American woman with chronic fatigue syndrome – was donated to Professor Staines’ organisation.
