The University of Utah has been awarded a $349,335 Project Grant under the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke's Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The funding supports the University of Utah Program to Provide Pain Research Knowledge (UP3RK), which aims to effectively address the nation's biomedical, behavioral, and clinical pain research needs by training an interdisciplinary, diverse pool of well-trained, clinical pain research scientists. The UP3RK program focuses on developing scholars' expertise in four key areas: nonpharmacological pain treatments, effective interventions for pain and co-morbidities (particularly substance use disorders), implementation science, and research with diverse and underserved populations. Over the 5-year award period from August 2024 to June 2029, the program will support five scholars annually, providing them with state-of-the-art training, mentorship, and opportunities to improve the impact of their clinical pain research careers and achieve independent research support.
