Next Wednesday, IASP will launch the 2022 Global Year advocacy campaign for Translating Pain Knowledge to Practice, co-chaired by Heike Rittner and Sulayman Dib-Haji. Each Global Year features webinars, fact sheets, and translated materials to share the current translation of pain knowledge to health professionals, those living with pain, and the public.
IASP is also pleased to continue providing grants and fellowships in 2022, starting with the IASP Early Career Research Grants opening on 25 January. This grant is available internationally, consists of multiple awards of $20,000 for projects lasting one year, and is open to any discipline. Be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to expand your research as an independent investor. Stay informed on additional grants and fellowships opening in 2022 on the grants and awards page on the IASP website.
We value your continued support and participation in IASP programs and events, and we hope you are looking forward to the 2022 World Congress on Pain as much as we are. Together, IASP and our community can make significant strides in fulfilling our mission in 2022: working together for pain relief throughout the world.
Sincerely, |
