The COMPAIN research group invites scholars and the wider public to join a conversation on the complexity of pain and its ethical dimensions. To foster this exchange, we are launching the COMPAIN Lecture Series for the winter semester of 2025, featuring talks dedicated to pain-related themes from philosophical, medical, and interdisciplinary perspectives.
