Recap: PAINtalks 2022

Please see the recap below from the organizing team of the 2022 PAINtalks. The MSK Rehab Research Network is proud to support this annual free event organized by trainees, for trainees.

The Quebec Network of Junior Pain Investigators (QNJPI) is
proud to have organized the seventh edition of PAINtalks,
which took place at the Centre Mont-Royal in Montreal, on the
evening of November 3rd, 2022.

This initiative consists of TEDstyle presentations that aim to provide the audience with popularized presentations focused on the area of pain. These presentations last around 8 minutes, and focus on various themes, such as pain management, the impact of pain on daily life, chronic migraines, physiotherapy services, the patient-clinician relationship, pain education, the importance of partnerships with patients in research, gender and sex in pain, lifestyle, and catastrophic thinking.

This edition was once again free, bilingual, and open to the public. The event took place in a hybrid format. Simultaneous translation service was also offered to everyone at the event, whether they were listening
in-person or online. All the presentations were filmed in high definition, then made available to our audience with English and French subtitles via our website, our YouTube channel, our Twitter account, and our Facebook page.

Stats from the event:

  • More than 850 registrations from all over Quebec, several other
    Canadian provinces, and from North America, South America, Europe, Africa, and Australia
  • 10 speakers including 4 students from the QJNPI, 2 guest speakers, 1 student from the North American Pain School, 1 student from the Canadian Pain Society, and 2 people living with chronic pain
