Pain Matters  |  80
Dear Reader,
Funding for pain research is absolutely essential in order to move towards a healthcare system with improved outcomes, where quality of patient care is better informed by science and led by the needs of the patients. With that in mind, we are pleased to announce that this edition of Pain Matters is guest-edited by Lesley Colvin, co-lead of the University of Dundee Chronic Pain Research Group along with David Walsh, the Director of the Advanced Pain Discovery Platform (APDP). The Advanced Pain Discovery Platform is a four-year initiative which has received a massive £24m in funding. On the APDP website it is stated that ‘The aim of this programme is to deliver a consortium-based platform of national scale that will break through the complexity of pain and reveal potential new treatment approaches to address a wide spectrum of chronic and debilitating the clinical conditions’. Partners of the APDP initiative include Medical Research Council (MRC), Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), Versus Arthritis, Eli Lilly, and the Medical Research Foundation. So, it’s safe to say this an ambitious project that will propel the advancement of pain research in Scotland and beyond, bringing together a wealth of expertise. Importantly, people living with chronic pain have been involved with this initiative from the start and will continue to help shape the research and there are opportunities for people with chronic pain to get involved, to find out more please visit hdruk.ac.uk/helping-with-health-data/health-data-research-hubs.
