Sine Dolore European Pain Foundation has decided to move the Sine Dolore World Park Awards for a new social evening with a renewed formulation that circumscribes such awards to the fields of health, medicine, pain, pharmacology and , in general, to all the branches of what we modernly know as health and welfare sciences.
