Lester Jones, PhD

I am a physiotherapist and educator and long-term advocate for better pain assessment and management. My formal education has been extensive and cross-disciplinary. My scholarly work has explored stress and pain, labor pain, pain in torture survivors, sports-related pain and clinical reasoning. My active roles in professional groups in the United Kingdom, Australia and now Singapore, include leading the National Pain Group (Australian Physiotherapy Association) and, since 2017, as the Research Officer for IASP SIG Pain related to Torture, Organized Violence and War.
