Maixner Pain Research Symposium

The second annual Maixner Pain Research Symposium brings together pain researchers and clinicians from North Carolina academic hubs, including Duke, UNC, NC State, and Wake Forest, to 1) share exciting new advances in pain research and pain management, 2) stimulate organic collaborative opportunities, and 3) promote professional development of early career students and trainees. | Target Audience: Clinicians, scientists, students, and trainees interested in pain mechanisms and management. | Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to: 1) Understand multi-modal approaches for identification, validation, and screening of novel therapeutic targets for pain. 2) Characterize molecular and cellular mechanisms of acute and chronic pain across the lifespan. 3) Determine how biopsychosocial models can be applied to predict, prevent, and treat chronic pain.
