Creative approaches to research by young scientists provide opportunity for new and challenging thinking to benefit patients who suffer from pain.
To move such approaches from a conceptual framework to a research project, the EFIC-Grünenthal Grant provides support for innovations in clinical research.

Recipients of an EFIC-GRÜNENTHAL Grant (E-G-G) provided insights into the results of their award-winning projects during the “New Findings in Clinical Pain Research” symposium at the 10th Congress of the European Pain Federation EFIC^®

EFIC-GRÜNENTHAL Grant 2016 supports six young scientists in their advanced pain research projects

• Creating further awareness for pain and its treatment
• Support young scientists to bring out best pain relief for patients

• Novel ideas for potential improvement of pain management
• High need for translation of findings into practice for improved patients’ quality of life  

The continuing Success Story on Research in improving pain patients‘ lives
EFIC-Grünenthal Grant honours 7 young scientists for their groundbreaking pain research ideas.
 

Young scientists from any European member country of the European Pain Federation EFIC^® are invited to apply for the EFIC-Grünenthal Grant (E-G-G) 2014. This grant is one of the most prestigious and highly regarded pain research grants worldwide.

Florence, October 10th 2013. As the field of pain has evolved significantly in Europe over the years, pain research is more relevant than ever: Every fifth adult citizen in Europe suffers from persistent or chronic pain, so pain has become a major health problem in Europe. In line with the thought that pain research is getting more and more important, the EFIC-Grünenthal Grant (E-G-G) gave young scientists support and a platform in the course of the 8th EFIC® Congress in Florence, Italy.
