From understanding the mechanisms to implementing conservative management of musculoskeletal conditions [ 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2025 ]

Research Grant

Brief description Musculoskeletal pain is the leading cause of disability internationally and outcomes are worsening. This work will take a unique approach to study back pain from the mechanisms that occur at the cellular level to the interaction between a person’s physiology and psychology to understand why pain fluctuates, to understand how treatments can be more appropriately tailored for individuals, and to test how people with back pain can be supported to change behaviours and achieve recovery.
