PURPOSE: Positively Uniting Researchers of Pain to Opine, Synthesize, and Engage

研究表明，不同的团队合作并利用创新的想法和独特的 视角比同质团队表现更好。机构间疼痛研究协调委员会 (IPRCC)已经确定基础、翻译和临床研究人员不会定期合作 如果所有学科的疼痛管理研究人员都 共同努力，将增强疼痛的创新性、相关性和实际应用 管理研究。积极联合疼痛研究人员发表意见、综合和参与 (目的)将促进和支持建设性和充满活力的专业间沟通，并 在基础、转化性和临床研究的连续体中的疼痛研究之间的合作。 目的利用一种跨专业实践和教育的方法，取得了类似的 为类似的多专业受众进行文化转型；技术基础设施 支持它，包括定制的当代在线和移动网络、学习和协作 空间；以及相关的方案规划要素和系统，以开发和实施这些 元素。宗旨将创建、支持并不断完善年度会议和在线 网络社区，支持来自世界各地的疼痛研究人员的职业生涯和研究 基础、转化性和临床研究的连续统一体，他们来自不同的、多学科的 背景。为了包括和支持多样化的网络，目标已经确立，并将继续 发展战略外展合作伙伴关系，以招聘和支持来自 在基础、转化和临床研究的连续统一体中，以及来自历史上低于- 具有代表性的人口统计数据，包括女性、黑人、拉丁裔、有色人种、LGBTQ和神经病- 不同的研究人员，包括认为自己属于自闭症谱系的研究人员。培训和 发展将包括对下列问题对人类的影响的情感理解 研究人员通过让患者参与日常高冲击性慢性疼痛的生活体验来寻求答案 在整个计划的方向、目标和活动方面。

Research shows that diverse teams working together and capitalizing on innovative ideas and distinct perspectives outperform homogenous teams. The Interagency Pain Research Coordinating Committee (IPRCC) has determined that basic, translational, and clinical researchers do not regularly collaborate when developing grant applications; and that if pain management researchers across all disciplines were to work together, it would enhance the innovation, relevance, and practical application of pain management research. Positively Uniting Researchers of Pain to Opine, Synthesize, and Engage (PURPOSE) will foster and support constructive and dynamic interprofessional communications and collaborations between pain research across the continuum of basic, translational, and clinical research. PURPOSE utilizes an approach to interprofessional practice and education that has achieved a similar cultural transformation for a comparable multi-professional audience; the technological infrastructure to support it, including a customized, contemporary online and mobile networking, learning, and collaboration space; and the interrelated program planning elements and systems to develop and implement these elements. PURPOSE will create, support, and continually refine an annual conference and online networking community, to support the careers and research of pain researchers from across the continuum of basic, translational, and clinical research, and who hail from diverse, multidisciplinary backgrounds. To include and support a diverse network, PURPOSE has established and will continue to develop strategic outreach partnerships to recruit and support the unique needs of researchers from across the continuum of basic, translational, and clinical research, and researchers from historically under - represented demographics, including women, Black, LatinX, and communities of color, LGBTQ and neuro - diverse researchers including researchers who identify as being on the autism spectrum. Training and development will include affective understanding as to the human impact of the problems to which researchers seek answers by involving patients with the lived-experience of daily high-impact chronic pain in the direction, goals, and activities of the program overall.
