This landmark course features hands-on experiential learning in the evidence-based and appropriate use of advanced pain and neuromodulation. It includes interactive discussions with top experts in the field of neuromodulation.

Topics include spinal cord stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation, intrathecal drug delivery, advanced interventional techniques, surgical skills, and more. This course provides a comprehensive foundation for integrating advanced neuromodulation into clinical pain practice.
