The title of the talk was "Tangled Up In Blue: The Complexity of Chronic Pain From a Neuroscientist's Perspective."
The presentation featured some of the recent work 成人直播 faculty and students are conducting in areas of inter-professional education and community awareness of chronic pain and its impact on patients, families, communities and the health care system. Some recent advances in preclinical and clinical pain research were also highlighted in the keynote, along with implications for preventing or better managing chronic pain.
Dr. Bilsky also serves as the professor of biomedical sciences in the College of Osteopathic Medicine. The Maine Chapter of the American Colleges of Osteopathic Family Physicians (ACOFP) was established in February of 2004 to assist Maine physician's in strengthening relationships between students, residents and physicians as well as giving formal input to the ACOFP. The mission of the Maine Chapter of the ACOFP is to promote excellence in osteopathic family medicine through quality education, visionary leadership and responsible advocacy.
