Diana Burgess, PhD, Professor, Dept. of Medicine, University of Minnesota, talks about how she got involved in studying pain management and working with the Pain Management Collaboratory. Her study for the Pain Management Collaboratory is “Testing Two Scalable, Veteran-Centric Mindfulness-Based Interventions for Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain.”
The goal of the Collaboratory is to develop the capacity to implement cost-effective large-scale pragmatic clinical research in military and veteran health care delivery organizations focusing on nonpharmacological approaches to pain management and other comorbid conditions.
