The growing number of overdoses and deaths caused by opioids in the therapy of chronic pain shows the urgent need to develop and test novel chronic pain treatments. We will address this need by developing and testing a novel and safe intervention that can provide pain relief via the primary source of pain: the brain. We will use cutting-edge imaging technology to unravel brain mechanism responsible for the recovery of chronic pain, including efforts to prevent rather than relive chronic pain.

阿片类药物在慢性疼痛治疗中的过量使用和死亡人数不断增加，表明迫切需要开发和试验新的慢性疼痛治疗方法。我们将通过开发和测试一种新的、安全的干预措施来解决这一需求，这种干预措施可以通过疼痛的主要来源——大脑来缓解疼痛。我们将使用尖端的成像技术来揭示负责慢性疼痛恢复的大脑机制，包括努力预防而不是缓解慢性疼痛。
