The Institute's mission is to discover and improve new treatments to help over 4 million Australians who suffer from chronic pain - often trapped in a cycle of pills, inactivity and depression - manage their pain effectively, so that they can resume normal work and family lives.
PMRI pursues its broad goal of improving human health by:
- conducting basic and clinical research programs
- operating a national and international education program and,
- in collaboration with the Pain Management & Research Centre (PMRC), treating patients with acute pain, cancer pain, and chronic non-cancer pain.
