Chronic pAIn program: AI-driven personalized therapeutic approach for the treatment of musculoskeletal chronic pain

While many people suffer from musculoskeletal chronic pain, including back pain, neck pain or osteoarthritis in the knees or hips, there is a lack of effective interventions focused on pain management and pain perception relief. The interdisciplinary Chronic pAIn program focuses on developing an AI-driven, personalized therapeutic approach for musculoskeletal chronic pain. The team combines psychological, technological and legal knowledge to address chronic pain, contributing to the digital transition in healthcare. Special attention is given to vulnerable groups. Collaboration will include partnerships with Brightlands Smart Services Campus, Zuyderland Medical Center, and Adelante.
