We are currently working on a series of studies using functional MRI to study people with fibromyalgia, and people who are generally healthy and about the same age, for comparison.

Some studies also involve only people without chronic pain so that we can study factors that influence the pain that we feel.

If you might be interesting in volunteering for this study, please check back for updates, or email P. Stroman at stromanp@queensu.ca to be emailed updates and information.
