Synopsis

No field of biology has engendered so much interest, hope, and hype as genetics. Advances in molecular, statistical and behavioral methodologies have suddenly allowed genetic investigations of complex biological phenomena, including pain. Genetic studies of pain are already showing their power to identify new molecular targets for drug development and create new animal models of pain pathology. Alone among biological approaches, pain genetics can explain why we're not all alike with respect to pain - why some people hurt more, and receive less benefit from existing analgesics. The knowledge gained holds the promise of allowing truly individualized pain therapy.
