IASP Pain Research Forum
The IASP Pain Research Forum (PRF) is an interactive community of pain researchers working to understand the basic neurobiology of pain and translate new knowledge into novel treatments for chronic pain.?
PRF News: PRF’s professional science journalists cover the latest topics in pain research each and every week for thousands of readers throughout the world.
In this episode of the IASP-PRF Podcast, PRF correspondent Adewale Fadaka spoke with Elliot J. Krane – a prolific pain researcher and co-founder of one of the first pain centers for children in North America.? During their wide-ranging conversation, Krane discussed his background in pain research, how he felt to receive the Distinguished Career Award at ISPP 2023, and shared some advice for early-career researchers.
PRF Papers of the Week: PRF’s weekly review of the scientific literature on pain. This week’s highlighted papers:
