Science is teamwork. Thinking back to the @efic.bsky.social congress in Lyon and feeling proud of our amazing Pain Research Group at @jagiellonskiuni.bsky.social and @filozoficznyuj.bsky.social.
We do great science and have a great time together — what more could one ask for? #pain #placebo #nocebo

I had a fantastic few days in Lyon attending @efic.bsky.social & sharing some of my early PhD research on third-wave psychological therapies for low back pain. It was inspiring to meet so many fellow researchers and hear about the latest developments in the field.
