Research Seminar Series - Understanding Pain Through a Multi-Dimensional Lens
June 7 at 12:00 pm PST

What is pain? What affects our perception of pain? Join us on June 7th with our speakers Dr. Kenneth Craig, the Director of the BC Pain Research Network and Professor Emeritus of Psychology at UBC, and Nicole Bailey, a graduate research assistant at the Kramer lab at ICORD. In this session, we will explore the psychological, social, and biological dimensions of pain, as well as current research studying the interactions of stress and pain.

Program Highlights

Creative Collective: Featured Creator of the Month - Kate Wolfe

Kate was introduced to painting about 10 years ago through a friend who was taking a painting course at the Dunbar Community Center led by Georgia Youngs. While she didn’t think of herself as an artistic person at the time, she gave it a try and fell in love with it.

Canadian Coalition for Seniors' Mental Health

Celebrating National Seniors’ Week

Tending your mental health is similar to gardening. Sometimes conditions are nearly perfect for steady growth and flowering. Other times conditions can be challenging, with little water, too much shade, or scorching heat. But there’s always something you can do to improve mental health and to Flourish in All Seasons of Life.

The Canadian Coalition for Seniors’ Mental Health is celebrating National Seniors’ Week (June 5-9, 2023) by highlighting the resilience of Canadian older adults, and providing no-cost tools and resources to help older adults improve their wellbeing.
