PAINWeek welcomes, for the first time, the American Society of Pain and Neuroscience (ASPN), which will present courses on Sunday, September 13. ASPN member Peter Pryzbylkowski, MD, commented, “Having an ASPN track at PAINWeek is a natural evolution as both groups are heavily interested in alleviating chronic pain complaints through use of methods that are nonpharmacological in nature.” Dr. Pryzbylkowski will present Fundamentals of Neuromodulation.

Presenter Sean Li, MD, stated, “ASPN is a unique and new professional society developed to harness the talents of a diverse group of interventional pain physicians through the pursuit of clinical excellence, education, research, and innovation. The collaboration of PAINWeek and ASPN will further advance pain medicine by embracing interventional treatment options to alleviate chronic pain and suffering.” Dr. Li’s course is Peripheral Nerve Stimulations: Indications and Evidence. The ASPN track includes: Patient Identification Strategies for Neuromodulators and The Role of Combining Spinal Cord Stimulation & Intrathecal Therapy.

“We’re very pleased to welcome ASPN,” commented Mike Shaffer, Director of Business Development at PAINWeek. “We understand that the PAINWeek audience continues to have a heightened interest in interventional treatments for chronic pain, particularly neuromodulation. Therefore, ASPN’s unparalleled faculty and burgeoning reputation in our landscape make for a great fit. We’re looking forward to their track, and building on our partnership in the future.”

PAINWeek will also welcome the American Headache Society, International Pelvic Pain Society, American Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, and Osteoarthritis Research Society International.
