Pain researchers at Grünenthal and around the world are connected by a common goal of creating innovative solutions and delivering them to patients in need. We launched PainSolve in 2018 to ‘connect the dots’ and facilitate collaboration and innovation in pain research.

PainSolve is a platform for pain researchers and scientists, which aims to provide a space for knowledge exchange and networking. We are pleased to announce a new update, including a new-look homepage and content to help improve disease understanding in pain research. We look forward to further continuing to evolve PainSolve with regular updates throughout 2019 – based on your feedback and preferences – to develop the platform into a tool that truly delivers added value to the pain research community.

Our latest updates include:

• A summary article and recording of the inaugural PainSolve webinar hosted by Prof. Ulrike Bingel (University Hospital Essen, Germany), titled: ‘The Neurobiology of the Placebo Effect’
• A new update article: ‘Living with pain: How can the patient experience inform your research?’
• An expert blog post written by Prof. Páll Karlsson (Aarhus University, Denmark) which discusses the Diagnostic Challenges of Small Fibre Neuropathy
• The Omics survey, currently open to PainSolve members, to aid our understanding of how the pain research community views the future of -omics research
