Phantom Limb Pain (PLP) is a condition prevalent after amputation that has intrigued scientists for over a century. PLP can considerably hinder a person’s quality of life and no universally accepted guidelines exist for its prevention and treatment. The aim of the 1^st International Conference on PLP (ICPLP) is to bring together world-renowned experts in the study and treatment of PLP, and create a forum for open discussions on competing theories and findings on PLP.
