Summary

This study is a part of a larger project aiming to evaluate the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the relationship between sleep and pain in people with non-specific chronic low back pain. Specifically, this study aims to evaluate the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the relationship between chronic sleep disturbances and pain sensitivity in people with non-specific chronic low back pain and chronic insomnia.
