About Me


Dr. Rebecca Pillai Riddell (Professor of Psychology, York University) has focused her research in the pediatric behavioural and biobehavioural sciences. She built the first and largest cohort in the world studying young children through painful vaccinations over the first years of life. She has generated an unrivalled published literature on the biopsychosocial dimensions of infants' and young children's acute pain. She is a tireless advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion and strives to create systemic infrastructure that supports a more just future for patients, their families, health professionals, research trainees, and researchers.
