PAINWeek Heads to Las Vegas, September 3-6, as the Largest and Most Innovative Pain Management Conference for Frontline Healthcare Professionals
July 31 2024 - 10:00AM
Building on the momentum of a record-breaking year, PAINWeek,
produced by Informa Connect, unveils details of the 18th annual
conference. This year, PAINWeek tackles one of the greatest threats
to physical and mental health: chronic pain. With insights from
pain medicine's most influential voices, the program delves into
the latest therapeutic approaches to this complex issue. Taking
place between September 3-6, 2024, at The Cosmopolitan of Las
Vegas, NV, the event is a must-attend for healthcare professionals
of every specialty and industry sector. Attendees may register
online at www.conference.painweek.org, early bird pricing runs
through August 31, 2024.
Themed “Connecting Education to Application,” attendees will not
only learn about new research, techniques, and advancements in pain
management (education) but also understand how to effectively apply
this knowledge in real-world settings (application).
“PAINWeek is a very unique conference. Many of the speakers are
not physicians; we hear from pharmacists, psychologists, and
psychiatrists," says Paul G. Mathew, MD, DNBPAS, FAAN, FAHS,
PAINWeek 2024 Faculty. "Many of the clinicians treat the same
conditions as I do but in very different ways. The diversity of
backgrounds really leads to diversity of education, which is
important now as we are seeing more and more multidisciplinary
care."
During the event, attendees will connect with peers while
experiencing a full range of educational sessions and festival-fun
