The workshop will focus on the preclinical development and clinical aspects of the treatment of pain. A final discussion will challenge, through the medical needs raised by clinicians, new therapeutic approaches and the robustness of models, targets and research tools.
This workshop is open to all students and especially students who are willing to participate to the Medalis Challenge Drug Discovery and Development (DDD).
