  render() {
    return (
      <form onSubmit={this.handleSubmit}>
        <div className="form-group">
          <label htmlFor="email">Email:</label>
          <input className="form-control" type="email" ref="email"/>
        </div>
        <div className="form-group">
          <label htmlFor="password">Password:</label>
          <input className="form-control" type="password" ref="password"/>
        </div>
        <div className="form-group">
          <button type="submit" className="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
        </div>
      </form>
    );
  }
}

export default Register;

This is the syntax:
Accounts.createUser(options, [callback])

The argument options needs to be an object that takes email and password.

const res = Accounts.createUser({
  email: email,
  password: password
});

and [callback] is an optional callback.
