About this listen

 Glyn and Konrad are at an international conference about pain in children and adolescents in Halifax, Canada. First, they discuss some of the talks they found interesting. Their main guest is Dr Susmita Kashikar-Zuck, from Cincinnatti Children's Hospital and the university of Cincinnatti. They talk about 3 of the most interesting findings from her own research, and then discuss what happens to children and young people with chronic pain when they are adults. At the end, Glyn and Konrad argue about who is paying for beers.
