Events

The Pain Research Consortium hosts a seminar series every second month, featuring leading speakers from basic and clinical pain research. Their focus spans all aspects of research relevant to ending pain in cancer and cancer survivors, from fundamental mechanisms underlying the transduction and perception of pain, to patient-reported outcomes measures and public health policymaking.
