For nearly two decades, the Neuromedicine Pain Division faculty has taught about chronic pain and its treatments via professional education programs, clinical research training fellowships, and graduate medical seminars in New York and around the world. Over 20 international professional societies have featured presentations and courses from the group on nociceptive neurobiology, clinical diagnosis, and assessments of analgesic clinical trial evidence.

Dr. Markman routinely lectures at academic centers, in recurring CME programs for the region and via broadcast.  The faculty also provide premiere training in clinical research through its fellowship programs which has fostered a generation of investigators publishing original clinical research. Finally, the seminar “Pain: the Medicine, Culture, and Politics of Suffering” explores the biopsychosocial foundation of contemporary pain treatment. The course is offered through the University of Rochester School of Medicine as part of its undergraduate curriculum.
