What participating in a chronic pain study looks like.

Who can join

Each program sets its own eligibility (age, health history, current treatments). Signing up only adds you to plain-language introductions when a fit appears.

What to expect

Most studies involve a short screening visit, a treatment or observation period, and a few follow-up check-ins. Time commitment is listed on every study below.

Your choice, always

Participation is voluntary. You can ask questions, take your time, and step away at any point — no impact on your standard care.
