Biography
After graduating from the veterinary programme at the University of Bristol with honours in 1991, Dr Lascelles continued his studies at the University completing a PhD in aspects of pre-emptive/perioperative analgesia.
After an internship, he completed his surgical residency at the University of Cambridge. He moved to Colorado for the Fellowship in Oncological Surgery at Colorado State University. He is currently Professor in Small Animal Surgery and Pain Management at North Carolina State University.
He is board-certified in small animal surgery by the RCVS, the European College of Veterinary Surgeons, and the American College of Veterinary Surgeons. He is director of the Comparative Pain Research and Education Centre (CPREC). His research program (Translational Research in Pain [TRiP]) is dedicated to answering critical questions about pain control and pain mechanisms through high quality, innovative research.
His career has been focused on developing algometry methods (methods to measure pain) in spontaneous disease animal models (pets with naturally occurring disease), and probing tissues from well-phenotyped animals with spontaneous disease to understand the neurobiology, with a strong translational focus.
The aim of his research is to improve pain control in companion animals, and facilitate analgesic development in human medicine. He has authored over 180 peer reviewed research papers, 190 research abstracts, and 30 book chapters.
