This book summarizes the latest progress of pain research. All the chapters in this book are contributed by the speakers from Asian Pain Symposium (APS) on Acute and Chronic Pain, which was held in Taipei in 2017. The APS was first found in Kyoto, Japan in 2000. It serves as a platform for scientists to present recent advances in pain research and discuss the research orientation in this field. Before the Taipei’s conference, the APS was held in Kyoto (Japan) in 2000, Seoul (Korea) in 2004, Fukuoka (Japan) in 2008, Shanghai (China) in 2011, Okazaki (Japan) in 2013 and Suzhou (China) in 2015. The major topic of the APS 2017 is the latest progress of pain research and novel strategies of pain treatments, including disciplines from molecular to functional, and from basic to clinic studies. This book, as the summary of the conference, is composed of 19 review articles. Each distinguishing contributor updates and outlines the most recent and outstanding results of individual studies on the physiology and pathology of pain in their own research fields. Specific topics include circuitry, neurotransmitter, physiology, behavior, neuropathology, pharmacology, and the treatments for neuropathic pain disorders. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students in pain medicine and neuroscience.
