The Pain Research Forum is an interactive virtual community and web-based resource for basic, translational, and clinical researchers working to discover new treatments for chronic and neuropathic pain. Open communication and rapid exchange of information speed progress toward new treatments, but the pain research community is fragmented across many disciplines and specialties, each with its own conferences and journals. PRF brings the community together by providing a single venue where researchers can keep up to date with the latest news, access resources and community information, and debate emerging themes and ideas relevant to pain research. The site is a joint project of the Harvard NeuroDiscovery Center—responsible for the content of the site—and the MIND Informatics team—responsible for web development and maintenance.
