Welcome to our Lab!

Thomas Hadjistavropoulos and awesome graduate students are working on social and psychological influences on pain.  An area of recent emphasis has been the pain assessment and management of the older adult.

Please browse through our website and find information about our research, our people, and our contributions. We are a cohesive University of Regina group that is always happy to receive inquiries from researchers, the media, and prospective trainees. We often seek research participation from members of the public and we post such opportunities on our website. Thank you for your interest!

Help Us Spread Information About Pain in Dementia (#SeePainMoreClearly)

With the support of organizations such as the AGE-WELL NCE and stakeholders, we launched a large-scale social media campaign #SeePainMoreClearly on October 1, 2019, the International Day of Older Persons.

Help our knowledge mobilization effort by viewing our 2-minute informational video on YouTube https://youtu.be/9ONjQ7_ZvZA which addresses the problem of pain under-management/underassessment in older adults with dementia, along with evidence-based solutions. We also encourage you to fill out our brief video evaluation questionnaire https://uregina.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_24AV6gjEVjxpiTj. Resources can be accessed through www.seepainmoreclearly.org.

Join our conversation on Twitter using the hashtag #SeePainMoreClearly!

If you have other ways of helping with this initiative, please contact Louise Castillo (castilll@uregina.ca).
