EFIC-Grünenthal Grant 2018

Creative approaches to research by young scientists provide opportunity for new and challenging thinking to benefit patients who suffer from pain.
To move such approaches from a conceptual framework to a research project, the EFIC-Grünenthal Grant provides support for innovations in clinical research.
