Episode 14: Investigating Acute to Chronic Pain Signatures (A2CPS) for Advancing Pain Prevention Strategies
Description
In this episode, Allissa Dillman chats with Margaret Taub, a Senior Scientist with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health on her journey from mathematics to statistical genetics, highlighting her current role with the Acute to Chronic Pain Signatures (A2CPS) program. The A2CPS study aims to develop predictive biomarkers for chronic pain by collecting comprehensive genomic, psychosocial, and functional data from patients. To coordinate diverse data sources, Margaret emphasized the importance of collaboration and interdisciplinary teamwork, drawing parallels between her experiences in teaching, music, and Ultimate Frisbee to her approach in science. Margaret and Allissa also discuss the study’s progress and future plans.
