NIH HEAL Myofascial Pain Workshop (Day 2)
It is estimated that 30 to 85 percent of patients with musculoskeletal pain are affected by myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) — pain originating from muscles and/or associated soft tissues such as fascia. Interactions between fascia and muscles remain mostly unknown and there is a strong need to address the contributions of the myofascial tissues to chronic pain. This represents one of the last “ unturned stones ” of all the tissue types involved in musculoskeletal pain. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering are proud to join forc...

Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, & Glycans
This workshop will focus on the roles of glycans in Coronavirus (CoV) infection, with emphasis on the Spike-glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2, its host receptor(s) and it will introduce new research tools that can facilitate these studies and accelerate the development of therapeutics, vaccines and diagnostics.
Coronavirus ( α − , β − , γ − , and δ -CoVs) are single stranded RNA viruses that can infect the lung, gastrointestinal, and central nervous system of mammals ( α -, β -) and birds ( γ -, δ -). While both α and β -CoV strains can cause mild infections in humans, three β -CoV strains (SARS-CoV in 2003; MERS...

AFM and GBS state of the science
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together experts in research and treatment of two acute paralytic neurological conditions, acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) and Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS), to identify gaps in scientific knowledge that, if filled, could advance understanding of pathological mechanisms and accelerate the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies.
This is a short " pre-meeting " event being held in advance of a larger in person meeting.For more information go tohttps://meetings.ninds.nih.gov/meetings/AFMandGBS/Air date: 5/7/2020 2:00:00 PM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

Pregnancy and Maternal Conditions That Increase Risk of Morbidity and Mortality Workshop (Day 2)
The purpose of the meeting is to develop a research agenda targeted at the clinical causes of maternal morbidity and mortality. An interdisciplinary team of experts will address the question of why women die from these conditions (i.e. postpartum hemorrhage, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, infection, etc. ) and what can be done to identify patients at risk, and the interventions required to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality.For more information go tohttp://www.cvent.com/d/pnqp0wAir date: 5/20/2020 8:00:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

Managing Chronic Pain in Individuals with Co-Occurring OUD, and Other Psychiatric Conditions
The intent of the workshop is to understand the state of the science on addressing chronic non-cancer pain and opioid use disorder (OUD), with and without other common comorbid psychiatric disorders. Using this knowledge base, invited attendees are charged with identifying research and infrastructure needs. Attendees will also address how these research priorities can enact meaningful and sustainable changes in treatment approaches in the next 5 years.Air date: 6/1/2020 8:30:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

Developing Meaningful Endpoints for Pain Clinical Trials (Day 2)
More than 25 million Americans suffer from daily chronic pain, a highly debilitating medical condition that is complex and difficult to manage. In recent decades, there has been an overreliance on the prescription of opioids for chronic pain, contributing to a significant and alarming epidemic of opioid overdose deaths and addiction. Innovative scientific solutions to develop non-opioid, non-addictive alternative treatment options are thus urgently needed.
One of the goals of the Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative is to accelerate the discovery and preclinical development of new medications and devices to...
