One of the central messages from the CRIISP Showcase in Oct: chronic pain affects far more than the body. It shapes identity, relationships, work, and daily life. Understanding these layers is vital for improving care and support.

In case anyone is wondering if Watson was really THAT bad, @lpachter.bsky.social compiled a list of quotes that are absolutely not for the faint of heart.
liorpachter.wordpress.com/2018/05/18/j...
In 1956, Jim Watson told my father, a brown man, that he would never get a job at Harvard and it was a miracle he had been admitted . Harvard's Board of Trustees saw it differently & appointed dad as an Assistant Professor and Director of the Harvard Agassiz Observatory BEFORE he finished his Ph.D!
Huge thanks to everyone who made the CRIISP Showcase on 16th October such a success, bringing together researchers, clinicians, charities, and people with lived experience to share insights into chronic pain. Grateful to all who joined us. #CRIISP #ChronicPainResearch #UniOfBath
