30 July: A newly updated hotel reservation form for the venue hotel is now on the Hotels page...
Note: first come, first served; there are a limited number of venue hotel rooms.
To all Sunday speakers: we strongly suggest that you plan to arrive in Verona on Friday. If you are delayed and you miss your talk, there will be no opportunity for you to speak because the program is so full. Delays can occur...
Dear Colleague,
It has been much too long since we have been together. It is time to see each other again. We are very pleased to announce that the next Pain Mechanisms and Therapeutics Conference will be held in Verona, Italy from 29 May to 3 June, 2022.
Verona was as large in Roman times as it is today, has extraordinary architecture, fabulous food and everything else, and is easy to get to. The conference venue, the Due Torri Hotel, is located in the historical center and close to everything. Verona is a small, very walkable city, clean, safe, close to Lake Garda, and an hour from Venice.
We are of course assuming that there will be no pandemic restrictions in 2022 and we will continue to monitor the situation. To protect ourselves and you, we will not have registrations start until late in 2021 so that cancellation and refunds will not be a problem in case anything too small for the eye to see actually prevents us from getting together...
Hope you can join us!
All the best,
Frank Porreca

From 2020:
Welcome to the Pain Mechanisms and Therapeutics Conference, which is designed to bring together students, fellows, researchers, and clinicians interested in all aspects of pain and analgesia research and therapeutics. In addition to presenting and hearing the latest data in the formal sessions and Data Blitzes, participants benefit from informal interactions throughout the meeting, which will be held every two years in a location that facilitates friendly interactions and future collaborations. An important point to remember is that this is not a sponsored meeting, so that all attendees will be responsible for registration and expenses. However, we are hoping that the science and the location will be sufficient to make this a meeting that you cannot afford to miss.
You are invited! This is an entirely open meeting and all scientific sessions are suggested by the participants. Please let us know via the "Contact Us" page if would like to suggest a session topic or join an existing session. Space is limited so we may not be able to accommodate all suggestions.
Please note that the Data Blitzes work very well, and are for everyone, not just junior investigators. Anyone can attend and present data in these well-attended and fast-paced sessions, so you do not need to be in a formally organized session to present your data.
This is an open, informal, friendly meeting with few rules; the only primary goals are: 1) to stay strictly on time, and; 2) to have the highest-quality sessions.
If you would like to give a Data Blitz talk, please let us know via the "Contact Us" page, giving your name, affiliation, and talk title. You will then be contacted.
All the best, and we hope you can join us,
Frank Porreca
