Agreements, Compliance, and Recovery of human dorsal root ganglia for the study of pain and itch. 

Steve Davidson received his PhD in neuroscience from the University of Minnesota where he found spinal cord neurons in monkeys responsive to itchy substances. He then received his postdoctoral training in the lab of Rob Gereau at Washington University in St. Louis where he helped to develop human dorsal root ganglia recovery and physiological approaches. He is currently associate professor of anesthesiology and associate director of the Neuroscience Graduate Program at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. 

How to integrate and use human research in a pain discovery program: Complexities and expectations.
 
Matt Sapio received his PhD in Neuroscience from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, New York, where he studied peptide processing enzymes with Lloyd Fricker. He received his postdoctoral training with Michael Iadarola and Andrew Mannes in the Department of Perioperative Medicine at the NIH Clinical Center, where his now a Research Scientist. He has completed studies related to the mechanism and use of the novel non-opioid analgesic resiniferatoxin. He is also deeply involved in transcriptomics and multiplex staining approaches of the nociceptive circuit to understand molecular pain neuroscience in humans.
