Individualized Women’s Healthcare in Fibromyalgia

Overview

About this study

The goal of this pilot project is to establish a research pipeline which facilitates the neurobiological assessment of women living with fibromyalgia, using in a combination of pain sensitivity testing, neuroimaging and physiological measures including actigraphy and home EEG.
