One Thing 2026: Early Career Researchers

Early career researchers are helping shape the future of pain science. In this 2026 series, we interview 12 emerging researchers from painSTAR and ask them one simple question: “what is one thing from your pain research you want everyone to know?”

Their answers bring together fresh ideas, new evidence, clinical relevance, and human insight. This year’s series is about listening to the next generation of pain researchers and sharing the messages they believe matter most.
