Congratulations to Prof David J. Adams FAA FAHMS, a global leader in neuroscience, now elected a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science. Working at the University of Wollongong, he studies small venom-derived molecules called peptides, which can precisely block pain signals in sensory nerves – offering a promising new approach to treating chronic pain without the side effects of traditional medications such as opioids.
