  Understanding and addressing endometriosis brain

  Endometriosis often causes long-term pelvic pain and can affect thinking, memory and focus. This fellowship will study how pain levels influence brain function and cognitive performance, and test the potential of an electronic wearable device (TENS) to reduce pain and improve cognitive skills. This could provide a safe and effective way to manage pain in endometriosis.
