This $408,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) federal grant program supports research to provide a comprehensive EEG profile of the cortical activity underlying the cognitive processing of the sensory-discriminative and affective-motivational dimensions of osteoarthritis knee pain. The research, conducted by Tarleton State University, aims to elucidate the neural oscillations associated with the multidimensional pain experience, which could yield insights into pain physiology and identify novel treatment targets. The project will utilize a robust methodological approach, including full-frequency band EEG analysis from all electrodes, coherence, absolute and overall power, in a large sample of participants with chronic knee pain and sex-matched controls. This federally-funded research is expected to generate novel and meaningful findings, even if the original hypotheses are not supported, due to the rigorous study design.
