Chris was there presenting our poster titled – The Alleviate Advanced Pain Discovery Platform Data Hub (available here) to the conference attendees.  This poster highlights the valuable Public and Patient Involvement group we have built and the benefits, such as Data Mapping and Data Discovery, our Hub can provide to Pain researchers.

“Attending the British Pain Society ASM highlighted how devoted the community is in solving the needs of people with pain. Whether it is clinicians, allied health professionals, public health or researchers there is a huge amount of progress being made especially in the digital space and it is clear that Alleviate has important role in supporting these efforts.”
