Pain Reports

Aims & Scope

PAIN Reports is an official publication of the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP).

An open access multidisciplinary journal that publishes continuously.

PAIN Reports promotes a global, rapid, and readily accessible forum that advances clinical, applied, and basic research on pain.

The online journal publishes full-length articles as well as brief reports, reviews, meta-analyses, meeting proceedings, and selected case reports.

PAIN Reports gives special attention to submissions reporting the results of enterprising and high-risk research and pilot studies as well as locally developed clinical guidelines from scientists and clinicians in developing countries.

IASP also publishes the journal PAIN.

The journal will only consider publication of work that includes information that is sufficient to permit replication by other laboratories.

Manuscripts reporting data from novel chemical probes will not be considered unless the structure and pharmacological characterization, including selectivity and relevant formulation, are reported or directly described in a prior peer-reviewed publication.
