American Pain Society (APS)

The American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM) is disheartened to learn of the dissolution of the American Pain Society (APS). Over the past nearly 40 years, AAPM has been fortunate to serve alongside APS in shared efforts to advance pain education, research, and advocacy. The closing of this long-standing organization is a loss for the entire pain community. AAPM offers its support to APS leaders, staff, and members, whom we remain committed to working with to advance multidisciplinary and patient-centered pain care.
