Our Mission

The Translational Research in Pain (TRiP) team’s mission is to improve pain management in animals and humans.

We achieve this through performing high quality, ethically sound, basic and clinical research in the following areas:

  • Developing methods to measure the impact of pain
  • Testing novel therapeutics for pain relief in naturally occurring disease in animals
  • Unraveling the neurobiological signature of pain in naturally occurring chronic disease in animals

Driving Change in Pain Measurement and Management

In May, Dr. Lascelles was named the Dr. J. McNeely and Lynne K. DuBose Distinguished Professorship in Musculoskeletal Health. The professorship was made possible by a $1 million gift from the Duboses that was matched by $500,000 from the Distinguished Professors Endowment Trust Fund.

Wall of Fame

Trial participants are key to our success.
Our thanks to all our dog and cat friends that participated in studies to help alleviation of pain in pets! We couldn’t do our research without their participation in our clinical trials. Get to know some of the many wonderful pets who have helped make a difference.
