So fun presenting in my home town @apaphysio conference with our little research team. It’s not often we get to see each other in person!
First time flying interstate and back in the same day for a conference symposium talk! Had such a great time (particularly the Q&A about pain in schools) presenting alongside @FechnerRebecca and @jen_norton1 in Brisbane today @apaphysio

A new podcast episode is now live! I was interviewed primarily for a clinical audience here: We discussed a wide range of topics, eg. unintended consequences of enabling learning about the science of pain. Keen to hear your thoughts! Full episode: podcasts.apple.com/au/podcas…

Agreed! Absolutely crushed it! #AusPainSoc
What would the world be like if children learned about (and understood) pain at school? Could it create a more empathic, healthier, society? @JoshuaWPate crushing his plenary at @AusPainSoc!

In the PICH (@PICH_pain) topical session at #AusPainSoc, @FechnerRebecca is sharing her recent paper about how teachers think about their student’s pain in classrooms. Amazing work Bec! Here’s a link to that paper: doi.org/10.3390/children1002…
