SCS Papers

[SpinALL]

Hoping for a little guidance. I'm a resident planning on pursuing a Pain fellowship. I've read a few posts noting lack of trust in reps, and other "experts" who may have financial interests in the field of SCS. I'd love to get a few opinions on the seminal papers I should be aware of, as well as any newer publications that are widely accepted as good (less biased) papers.

I appreciate your time!

Everything has bias and everyone has vested interests, financial or otherwise. That's a generally accepted list of papers. The hard part is understanding the nuance and really diving into them without getting lost in the author's carefully crafted conclusions.
