Expert Insights: What Does Sleep Have To Do With Chronic Pain?

Frank Porreca, PhD, studies the underlying biological mechanisms of pain to help the estimated one-third of people in the United States who live with chronic pain from things such as nerve injuries, cancer and migraine. 

He dives into the neuroscience of one promising link: sleep and chronic pain. His lab’s research on chemical messengers and receptors in human brain reveals how targeting specific areas of the brain may not only improve sleep, but also simultaneously improve chronic pain. 

Dr. Porreca is a member of the University of Arizona Health Sciences Comprehensive Pain and Addiction Center and professor and associate department head of the Department of Pharmacology at the UArizona College of Medicine – Tucson. His main research goal is to translate science into medicine to help people with pain and addiction.
