What a week at @IASPpain #WC2024 🇳🇱! I’m so grateful for the innovation, inspiration, connection, and community that pain science provides. Here’s to even more of it in Bangkok 2026 🪷🍜👩‍🔬🤩!

Amazing presentation by @hels_slater at @IASPCongress ‘Listen to me - Learn from me’ The importance for researchers and clinicians listening to and learn from people living with pain.

We want to congratulate all of the wonderful alumni of our #PRF Correspondents Program who have presented posters at @IASPpain’s 2024 World Congress on Pain! We can’t wait to see all your pictures with your posters! #WC2024

“If we change a generation of pain scientists, we can change the patterns of society itself.” @AnnaMHood1 gave an outstanding @IASPpain #WC2024 award lecture, empowering us to tackle systemic #racism in pain research. We are lucky to have you in pain science, Dr Hood. 👏🤩

Many important ideas from our SIG session yesterday incl standout points: 'Pain & trauma aren't inherently stigmatizing, it's something we do to eachother and we can change this', Joletta Belton 'Trauma is everyone's business' 'Adversity is not destiny' @ClaireC_PT #WC2024

Wondering aloud - if we talked about "pain and movement conditions" not "musculoskeletal conditions" could we break free from limiting pathoanatomical mindsets about pain #WC2024 @IASPpain @PASpainsg

Getting ready for last day of IASP World Comgress #WC2024 Plenty of insights and innovations in understandimg pain and managing pain have been shared since Monday
