Headache and Neurological Pain

Our research group is focused on studying the pathophysiology of migraine and other primary headaches using preclinical, translational and clinical research.

Migraine will allow us to define the brain’s adaptive, sensory/cognitive functions, through genetics, epigenetics, neurophysiology, neuromolecular and neuroanatomical information with an interest in developing clinical therapeutic solutions, with the goal on having an impact on suffering and increasing the well-being.

Two international studies led by Vall d'Hebron recommend early administration of specific drugs to prevent migraine to achieve a better response to therapy.

On World Clinical Trials Day, we highlight some of the studies we have participated in that confirm the efficacy of new drugs, allowing their approval by regulatory agencies.

The study, conducted in more than 770 people, concludes that atogepant reduces the frequency of migraine attacks and the need to take medication.
