Bernhard Frank is an Honorary Associate Professor and consultant in pain medicine with nine years of focused experience leading mechanism-based research and clinical translation for neuropathic pain, opioid weaning and neuromodulation. He is chief investigator on a large NIHR sham‑controlled RCT of FREMS for painful diabetic neuropathy and leads rTMS services and research into connectomic-guided neuromodulation to improve response rates. He combines extensive clinical practice—including inpatient opioid detoxification and transitional care for adolescents—with 10 years of medico-legal expertise in complex neuropathic pain cases and iatrogenic opioid dependence. An experienced clinical trialist (chief, national coordinating and local PI across 30+ studies), he advises industry on neuropathic pain, opioid and cannabinoid pharmacology and trains clinicians internationally in advanced pain management. Notably, he integrates neurophysiology and neuroimaging phenotyping into trial design to push mechanism-driven, low-dose opioid strategies that prioritise function and quality of life.
