Dr Lorimer Moseley is a clinical scientist investigating pain in humans. He has published 60 papers and two books (Explain Pain (2003)). He started out with a physio undergraduate degree, but has since completed a PhD in Pain in 2001 from University of Sydney and was a Research Fellow at Oxford in the UK.

Have you ever wondered how pain actually works in the human body? About chronic pain? Or about pain that exists even if a limb does not such as with phantom limb pain in amputees?

Listen to Lorimer begin to explain things beautifully in this hour long interview.
