PAINtalks 2026

PAINtalks 11th Edition - November 5, 2026

The Quebec Network of Junior Pain Investigators (QNJPI) is proud to announce the 11^th PAINtalks edition, which will be held on November 5, at 6:30 pm (EDT) as a hybrid event, live from the LaScène Lebourgneuf Theater in Quebec city, QC, Canada. Registration is mandatory, we expect to see many of you!

This bilingual, free and open to all initiative is inspired by TED-style presentations and aims to provide the audience with presentations focused on the field of pain. Speakers are asked to discuss controversies and advancements in the field of pain. A live translation service will be offered on-site and remotely.

For PAINtalks 2026, we are collaborating with four key networks in the pain field: NAPS, EPS, CPS, and CPCPoE. Members from each will be invited to present at the event, contributing diverse and complementary perspectives. We are also engaging with the AQDC to better reach individuals with lived experience of chronic pain.

In-Person - Seats are available at the LaScène Lebourgneuf Theater to attend the PAINtalks 2026 in person.
