MAYDAY PAIN & SOCIETY FELLOWSHIP: CALL FOR 2010 APPLICATIONS

In 2009, the Mayday Fund created the Mayday Fund Special Committee on Pain and the Practice of Medicine. This 22-person Committee released A Call to Revolutionize Chronic Pain Care in America: An Opportunity in Health Care Reform, a report with 12 recommendations to improve the treatment of pain in the United States.

The Mayday Pain & Society Fellowship is happy to release the Pain Management Experts Gude. This guide serves as a tool to connect you with leading experts in the field of acute and chronic pain and pain managment. Our experts -- both former Fellows and advisory committee members -- are from the United States and Canada and are listed by subject area, disease, and condition.

This group produced the report, "New Approaches to Neurological Pain: Planning for the Future," which identifies existing therapies for neuropathic pain and maps out a path for future research and education.

After several years of tireless advocacy, Georgia Brown (2005-06) was involved in a press conference with State Representative Jennifer Mann (D -132) and State Senator Pat Browne (R-16) to announce the introduction of the Pennsylvania Pain Task Force resolution. The task force will work to develop a statewide plan to promote public awareness and understanding of proper pain management and improve diagnosis and treatment of such pain.
