IASP honors the memory of Prof. Howard L. Fields, MD, PhD, who passed away on 1 May 2026.

A visionary at UCSF, he pioneered research into pain mechanisms, co-founded the UCSF Pain Management Center, and later focused on addiction neurobiology. His research illuminated inhibitory and excitatory descending brainstem pathways, the role of nucleus accumbens neurons in motivation, and the reversal of placebo analgesia by naloxone. An Honorary Member of IASP and elected member of the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Dr. Fields was a generous mentor and colleague.
