Project Summary/Abstract This is an administrative supplement to the parent grant Fibromyalgia Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation in Physical Therapy Study (FM-TIPS, UG3 AR0763387) to support the predoctoral training of Dr. Andrew Post. Andrew has developed training goals that are nested within the scientific aims of FM-TIPS that will assist him in developing his understanding of impactful clinical trial methodology. His previous clinical experience and formal research training will allow Andrew to serve in multiple roles that will assist in developing the necessary skills to conceptualize and conduct pragmatic clinical pain research including recruitment of healthcare and clinic site, training of clinicians on study procedures, data collection, management of large datasets, data analysis, and dissemination through manuscripts and presentations at professional conferences to a multidisciplinary audience. Andrew's contribution to FM-TIPS will assist in facilitating the completion of the parent grant and will provide him with a comprehensive training experience to achieve his training aims and advance his development towards a clinician-scientist who is trained in clinical trial design at the highest level.
