Towards painless and productive research relationships: reflections on study design by a researcher with chronic pain for participants with chronic pain by Catherine Wilkinson

“…This paper proposes the use of flexible, remote, and asynchronous research methods as ways to make studies inclusive for researchers living with pain, whilst fostering the most fruitful research relationships with participants who also live with pain, thereby moving towards a position of shared vulnerability. It also highlights the relative absence of the researcher's needs and possible vulnerability in ethics forms and considered by research ethics committees, in comparison to the needs and vulnerability of participants.…”
