About the Bath Centre for Pain Research
The Bath Centre for Pain Research is based at the University of Bath. It comprises a team of interdisciplinary researchers who explore how pain affects us, and how we live our lives, as well as looking at the best ways of helping people learn how to live with pain.
They explore different types of pain, from the everyday aches and niggles, to more persistent, chronic painful conditions which can result in long-term disability. The research covers a wide range of different themes, from how people think and feel about their pain, through to how the wider social environment (e.g., family, healthcare, work settings) can impact on how pain is perceived, expressed, and responded to.
Their goal is to develop a better understanding the nature of pain, and what factors contribute to how we experience it. This in turn will place us in a better position to more effectively manage it when it becomes problematic.
