DESCRIPTION The Systems Neuroscience & Pain Laboratory at Stanford University (SNAPL) is actively recruiting a postdoctoral fellow who will join our research project on chronic pain & opioid addiction.  Funded by the National Institute of Health and directed by neuroscience professors Sean Mackey and Gary Glover, our goal is to develop safe and effective chronic pain treatments & therapies by investigating corticospinal function via emerging technology known as simultaneous spinal cord/brain fMRI. Over 100 million Americans have been diagnosed with chronic pain, effectively setting the stage for nation-wide opioid addiction.  This chronic pain epidemic, combined with opioid abuse, has been a major healthcare crisis costing over a trillion dollars annually and leading to thousands of American deaths.  Ramifications of this public health crisis have been well documented by the Institute of Medicine’s 2011 report Relieving Pain in America : A Blueprint for...
