All initiatives of ASPN are dedicated to improving patient outcomes, education, research, and innovation. ASPN is committed to achieving its goals by embracing diversity that is inclusive to individuals of all genders, cultures, age, race, sexual orientation, and profession.
A Different "Pain Society"
ASPN was created to harness the talents of brightest minds in our profession. Innovative committees, educational meetings, and collaborative publications set ASPN apart as a unique society.
Interventional Pain Medicine is an unprecedented time of innovation and growth. Advancements in neuromodulation, minimally invasive spine procedures, regenerative medicine, and other areas requires a society of the top thought leaders to shape the safe, effective, and responsible utilization of these treatments.
