Gordon Munro is a senior scientist at the Danish Headache Center in Copenhagen. A transition from academic research in opioids/neuroendocrinology into pain drug discovery started at NeuroSearch in 2001 and continued at Lundbeck, where pain activities focused primarily on developing modulators of ion channels as novel analgesics. A strong emphasis on animal pain models and behavioral pharmacology has contributed to the publication of 70 peer-reviewed articles, numerous patents and the clinical development of 4 pain-related compounds. He is also associated with the Danish biotech Hoba Therapeutics who are currently developing a novel neurotrophic protein for the treatment of neuropathic pain.
