SPRIL Presents: Dr. Claire Ashton-James

The Stanford Pain Relief Innovations Lab presents Dr. Claire Ashton-James, "Addressing Social Aspects of Pain in Practice: Challenges and Opportunities". Dr. Claire Ashton-James is a Social Psychologist and Associate Professor of Pain Management at The University of Sydney Medical School. Dr. Ashton-James draws on her expertise in social cognition, interpersonal behavior, and emotion regulation to elucidate the impact of a person’s social context on their experience of pain and responsiveness to pain treatments. She is the Founding Chair and current Secretary of the Social Aspects of Pain Special Interest Group of the International Association for the Study of Pain. Dr. Ashton-James has a particular interest in the impact of patient-provider interactions on provider empathy, treatment decision-making, and communication, on the one hand, and patient engagement with and responsiveness to treatment advice, on the other. Using a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods and consumer co-design, Dr. Ashton-James’ program of research and teaching activities contribute to a growing awareness of the critical role of social processes in patient outcomes, and the need to identify and address social factors contributing to the assessment and treatment of both chronic and acute pain. In her presentation on “Addressing Social Aspects of Pain in Practice: Challenges and Opportunities”, she will draw on 8 years of research investigating clinician perspectives on social aspects of pain to reveal individual, social, and structural barriers to addressing social contributors to pain in practice, describe evidence-based strategies for overcoming some of these hurdles, and illuminate a path towards increasing clinician engagement with social aspects of pain in practice.
