Summary
Project Summary/Abstract Despite recent advances with new therapies, a huge proportion of migraine patients are still unable to use established therapeutics. For many patients, treatments are not effective, even newly approved CGRP mAbs have response rates of only ~50%. For others they are unsafe due to contraindications (triptans), or like opioids, not suited for long term use, even exacerbating existing migraine headache. This illustrates that there are still major gaps in our understanding of migraine mechanisms. It is therefore imperative that we investigate the underlying molecular mechan
