Project Description
Pain has been traditionally challenging to assess objectively. Visceral pain in particular, occurs in many conditions and hitherto no optimal therapy is known in the vast majority of cases. Digital technologies provide unique opportunities to offer insights into longitudinal assessments of pain and assessing interventions. In this project we will build on our long-standing collaboration across institutes to develop new methods to collect and analyze multimodal data to provide new insights into different conditions which lead to visceral pain such as endometriosis.
