Velly's ACTION Lab

ABOUT US

At Velly's Lab, we are dedicated to advancing the field of pain research and management through cutting-edge studies and collaborative international projects. Led by Dr. Ana Velly, our team's research interests are focused on pain epidemiology, biomarkers, and the transition from acute to chronic pain. We are also actively involved in conducting randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to assess the effectiveness of pain management strategies and investigate the association between opioids, pneumonia, and cancer risks.

Our primary Research Interests

understanding the prevalence, incidence, and distribution of pain conditions to develop effective management strategies for patients worldwide

Identifying and evaluating biological markers that can aid in the early diagnosis, prognosis, and personalized treatment of pain-related conditions

Investigating the factors associated with the transition from acute pain to chronic pain and the persistence of pain over time

 Conducting RCTs to rigorously assess the efficacy of pain management approaches and explore novel interventions

Examining the role of opioids in pain management and studying their potential impact on pneumonia and cancer risks

Areas of Expertise

Focused research on pain conditions related to the mouth, jaws, and face, with the aim of improving diagnosis and treatment

 A comprehensive understanding of pain mechanisms and the development of innovative approaches to alleviate suffering

Utilizing epidemiological methods to study the occurrence and distribution of pain-related disorders in diverse populations

Mission

 Our mission is to contribute significantly to the understanding and management of pain-related conditions through scientific excellence, compassionate patient care, and international collaboration. We aspire to make a meaningful impact on global health and enhance the quality of life for individuals suffering from pain.
