Academic focus

Complex spinal pain assessment

How can clinicians describe overlapping pain sources, diagnostic uncertainty, prior surgery, and anatomic complexity in a way that improves decisions and communication?

Neuromodulation & function

Patient selection, meaningful outcomes, and the relationship between pain relief and restored participation.

Advanced spine interventions

Technical questions in basivertebral nerve ablation, radiofrequency procedures, and image-guided care.

Neuropathic pain

Mechanisms, clinical phenotypes, and opportunities to connect translational science with care.
