Deer is a clinical professor of anesthesiology at the West Virginia University School of Medicine, where he also received his medical degree. He completed his training in anesthesiology and pain medicine at the University of Virginia. Dr. Deer has published on a range of topics, including injection techniques, minimally invasive disc procedures, intrathecal drug delivery, and spinal cord and peripheral nerve stimulation. He lectures at many national and international symposiums and has been involved in the hands-on training of more than a thousand interventional pain specialists. He serves on the board of directors of the North American Neuromodulation Society and American Academy of Pain Medicine. He is a past chair of the committee on pain medicine of the American Society of Anesthesiologists, a member of the editorial board of the journal Neuromodulation, president of the West Virginia Society of Interventional Pain Physicians, and serves on several other boards and committees. Jason E. Pope Founder and CEO, Evolve Restorative Center, USA. Dr. Pope is a leader in clinical research and innovation. He is involved with clinical trials encompassing many treatment strategies, including cellular therapy and regenerative medicine, medical devices to treat pain and wellness strategies. He is also focused on furthering education in the field of pain medicine. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed journals and spoken at numerous national and international conferences. He has served as the principal investigator for numerous national and international studies, started and clinical research organization, and helped numerous practices begin their research departments. When not helping his patients improve their quality of life, Dr. Pope enjoys spending time with his three children and writing.
