Intro slide for a presentation titled “The Power of Administrative Advocacy: How Researchers Can Influence Policymaking” by Juan M. Hincapie-Castillo, PharmD, MS, PhD, President of the Board of Directors at the National Pain Advocacy Center (NPAC) and Assistant Professor of Epidemiology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The slide includes the NPAC logo and a banner reading, “We envision a world in which pain is treated effectively, so all people living with pain can lead full and productive lives,” alongside an image of a woman. Logos for NPAC and the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health are also present.
Speaking at the #USASP2025 Advocacy Workshop this Friday! I’ll cover how researchers can influence pain policy through rulemaking, public comments, and agency engagement.
📢Your science belongs in policy rooms too!
