2018
33rd Annual Gunn-Loke Lecture with Dr. Helene Langevin
Sponsor: University of Washington
Date: October 23, 2018
Time: 5:30-6:30 pm
Speaker: Helene Langevin, MD (USA)
Senior Scientist at Harvard Medical School
Dr. Langevin's extensive research career has been focused on mechanisms of pain relief derived from mechanical and intramuscular stimulation. Dr. Langevin has been the Principal Investigator of US National Institutes of Health-funded studies investigating the role of connective tissue in low back pain and the mechanisms of acupuncture, manual and movement-based therapies. Her previous studies in humans and animal models have shown that mechanical tissue stimulation during both tissue stretch and acupuncture causes dynamic cellular responses in connective tissue. Her current work focuses on inflammation resolution mechanisms within connective tissue, and their relevance to chronic musculoskeletal pain and cancer-related pain.
Dr. Langevin is featured in this Deutsche Welle Documentary
"The mysterious world under the skin"
Stretching, Connective Tissue, Chronic Pain, and Cancer
University of California Television (UCTV)
Dr. Helene Langevin explains the importance of connective tissue in the body and its link to the immune system. She talks about recent findings on the effects of stretching on inflammation and fibrosis and the the relevance of these findings to chronic pain and cancer. Langevin is the director of the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital.
