Jeffrey Mogil, PhD, is the E. P. Taylor Professor of Pain Studies and the Canada Research Chair in the Genetics of Pain at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. He has made seminal contributions to the field of pain genetics, sex differences in pain and analgesia, and pain testing methods in the laboratory mouse. In the podcast below, Dr. Mogil speaks with PRF Correspondent Oakley Morgan, a PhD student at University College London, UK, to discuss the definition of terms in the pain field, including the recent IASP update to the definition of pain, the evolutionary purpose of chronic pain, the behavioral assessment of pain in animals, and what it was like to be in a disco funk band.
