Announcing the NeuronS_MATTR
Summer Workshop - 2025
Linkoping University, Sweden | June 22-26


The Human Mechanistic Techniques in Manual Therapy Research: From Microneurography to Tissue Analysis Workshop aims to facilitate knowledge transfer and technical skill development for researchers interested in conducting rigorous human mechanistic studies investigating how massage and other mechanotherapies influence pain, autonomic function, and tissue healing. Through hands-on stations and expert-led sessions, participants will gain practical experience with state-of-the-art techniques while building cross-disciplinary collaborations.

APPLICATION REQUIRED!

Summer School Application and Selection Process: 
**Participation Details:**
- Limited to 10 participants through a competitive selection process
- Priority given to US-based researchers (faculty, postdocs, and investigators)
- Selected participants will have access to 6 specialized technique stations including  
  microneurography and autonomic testing
- Post-workshop support and follow-up available

Our Admissions & Awards Working Group will review applications for attending the summer workshop with a goal of inclusive excellence. Our application/selection process is modeled after that of the NINDS-funded MBL Neurobiology Course, which consistently recruits a diverse group of exceptional US trainees to Woods Hole MA each summer. Our network seeks to recruit a diverse cohort with regard to discipline, career stage, US geographic location, gender, ethnicity, race, or disadvantaged educational background.

​​2024 Force Based Manipulation (FBM) Annual ​Meeting,
June 28, 2024, 10am-noon EST

The purpose of this meeting was to provide opportunities to share advances across three National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded force-based manipulation research networks, promote collaboration, and avoid duplication of network efforts. Many joined us online for the meeting’s open session featuring updates from the trans-network scientific working groups and a keynote presentation from a prominent researcher. The keynote presentation was delivered by Valeria Vásquez, Ph.D. from McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston on Fine-Tuning Mechanosensitive Ion Channels: From Basic Science to Translational Research.

​Hands On! ​Summer School! The Neurophysiology of Soft Tissue Manipulation in Musculoskeletal Pain Conditions, June 20-24, 2023, Indiana University
Our inaugural summer school disseminated scientific and technical knowledge to enable investigators to perform rigorous, mechanistic research on the neurobiology of soft tissue mechanotherapies.  See the agenda here and all meeting materials here.
