Pain is ubiquitous. But it continues to be poorly understood.Scientific advances have led to increasingly subtle and complex models of pain\, but not yet consensus. Both in science and in philosophy\, pain continues to generate deep and gripping questions.
\nThe Pain Project has been holding workshops targeting four questions in particular: (1) How doespain relate to perception\, whose role seems informational rather than motivational? (2) How does pain relate to emotional suffering\, which is both implicated in and intriguingly parallels physical suffering?(3) How is pain illuminated by comparisons and contrasts between human and non-human pain? And (4) How is pain illuminated by considerations of atypical pain experiences?
\nThe Pain Conference constitutes the culmination of these workshops and will be organized around research from presenters including:
\nColin Allen (Indiana University\; Philosophy and Cognitive Science)
\nMurat Aydede (University of British Columbia\; Philosophy)
\nDavid Bain (University of Glasgow\; Philosophy)
\nMichael Brady (University of Glasgow\; Philosophy)
\nVictoria Braithwaite (Pennsylvania State University\; Biology)
\nJennifer Corns (University of Glasgow\; Philosophy and Cognitive Science)
\nFrederique de Vignemont (Institut Jean Nicod\, Paris\; Philosophy and Cognitive Science)
\nValerie Hardcastle (University of Cincinnati\; Philosophy and Psychology)
\nRichard Krueger (Columbia University\; Psychiatry)
\nSiri Leknes (University of Oslo\; Neuroscience)
\nJennifer Radden (University of Massachusetts\; Philosophy)
\nAdam Shriver (University of Western Ontario\; Philosophy and Cognitive Science)  \;
\nThe conference is part of the larger Pain Project. The Pain Project is an international\, interdisciplinary research project focused on relations amongst pain\, perception\, and emotion\, as well as pain in non-human animals. It is part of an overarching research program\, Pain and the Nature of Mind\, run by the University of Notre Dame and funded by the John Templeton Foundation.
