Remarks
Although initially PAIN Repository data will be reserved for contributing members it is planned that the repository will be opened for wider access to all pain investigators after 3 years.
Full access to qualified users will include acceptance of a Data Use Agreement and the submission of an online application form (including the investigator’s institutional affiliation and he proposed research to be conducted using PAIN data). Applications for PAIN data are reviewed by the PAIN Data Sharing and Publications Committee (PDSPC) to ensure investigator affiliation with a scientific or educational institution and on the basis of the proposed research. Incomplete applications or those without a clear research focus will not receive approval.
