At the USASP, we believe that diverse voices and approaches are required to address the substantial challenge and cost of reducing the burden of pain. We strive to entwine diverse perspectives into all aspects of our work, including our membership and leadership, our interactions with other professional organizations and the community, our educational activities and engagement with early career investigators, and our national role in advocating for improved pain relief. Therefore, the USASP will continue to support incorporating individuals from underrepresented and disadvantaged/underprivileged backgrounds to enhance our diversity, promote equity, and model an inclusive and accessible organization.

K12 2025 Call for Applications and Informational Webinar The Chronic Pain and Fatigue Research Center at the University of Michigan is requesting applications for the HEAL National K12 Clinical Pain Career Development Award (HEAL K12). The HEAL K12 is a mentored career development program designed to provide protected time for clinicians and scientists to focus on training in and conducting clinical pain research. Award provides up to $100,000/year in salary plus fringe benefits, and $50,000/year in research support costs, for up to 3 years. This award is intended for scholars who may not be ready for a traditional K-award or independent research (R) award, come from institutional environments that cannot adequately support the scholar’s career and/or research objectives, and/or who are unable to form a mentoring team that would make them competitive for a training or independent research award in clinical pain. Applicants will have at least one home-institution mentor who will serve as their primary mentor. The HEAL K-12 program will then work with the scholar to match them with a senior pain research mentor of national stature as well as mentors with lived pain experience. Training will occur primarily at the scholar’s home-institution. Scholars will commit a minimum of 75% of their effort to this award. An informational webinar will be held September 11th from 11AM-12PM EDT, register here: https://painresearchers.com/events/94674 Looking For A Job In The Field Of Pain?A membership to the USASP provides exclusive listings for positions in pain research for both faculty members as well as postdoctoral fellows.
