My Latest Project on Neck Pain

Funded by the National Institute of Health (NIH),

National Institute of Arthritis and Muscoloskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS)

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS RESEARCH?

The lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms that drive chronic neck pain has hampered the development of effective mechanism-specific therapeutics.

WHAT WE ARE DOING?

We will use RNA sequencing on joint and nerve tissues of patients with chronic and acute neck pain coupled with computational biology methods and careful patient phenotyping to examine how molecules produced in the diseased tissue drive chronic pain.

WHAT DO WE HOPE TO ACHIEVE?

Reveal new molecular targets for future drug development.

A collaboration between the University of Washington and the University of Texas at Dallas (Price lab).
