James Giordano, Ph.D., is the Chair of Academic Programs and Director of the Center for Neurotechnology Studies at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies. His ongoing research addresses the role of neuroscience and technology in medicine, social, and national defense applications, and explores the neuroethics of pain, pain care, and implications for the treatment of human and non-human organisms. In a web interview for Painclinician.com, Dr. Giordano talks about the challenges facing clinicians as they balance the desire to relieve pain with new challenges in the field of pain management, including legal, ethical and financial considerations. Click here to watch Dr. Giordano's comments.
