Can we ‘forget’ chronic pain?

by Tim Hornyak, BA’95

If you’ve ever suffered from a recurring bad back, or any other type of chronic pain, you may involuntarily flinch when bending over or doing other movements. Will the agony return? Sometimes the pain lingers long after an injury.
It’s a stressful and even debilitating situation that neuroscientists such as Terence Coderre, MSc’83, PhD’85, are trying to remedy.
Coderre, an associate professor of anesthesia, has shed new light on how our nervous system records pain in a kind of chemical memory system. More important, Coderre and his colleagues are working on a way to erase those memories.
