Is interoceptive sensing unified across internal organs? 🫀🫁 Our high-powered psychophysical study (N=241) suggests not. Bayesian evidence indicates interoceptive processes are largely modality-specific—challenging the idea of a unitary interoceptive sense. 🔗 Read here: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Out now in the Journal of Pain! In this impressive work, @francescafardo.bsky.social and colleagues developed a 2-dimensional psychophysical approach to model the thermal grill illusion of pain. www.jpain.org/article/S152... #neuroskyence #psychscisky

1. Twenty-some years ago, as the embers of the intelligent design movement were dying out, a loose band of thinkers known as the New Atheists made a name for themselves by confusing materialist methodology with materialist metaphysics and going on the offensive against all of organized religion.

L’expression « médecine traditionnelle chinoise » a été inventée au milieu du XXe siècle, mais rend-elle bien compte de l’histoire médicale en Chine, de ses évolutions, de ses débats ? On en parlait sur @franceculture.bsky.social hier et ça se réécoute ici www.radiofrance.fr/francecultur...

Médecine traditionnelle chinoise : l'invention d'un mythe

L’idée d’une “médecine traditionnelle chinoise” basée sur l'acupuncture est une construction du XXe siècle qui ne rend pas compte de l’évolution des pratiques médicales en Chine. Comment expliquer le ...

Lever le bras lorsqu'on porte un patch à la capsaïcine, la molécule piquante du piment, intensifie la douleur. C’est une observation étonnante, découverte un peu par hasard, et répliquée dans une nouvelle étude. Comment expliquer ce lien entre sensibilité à la douleur et gravité ?

Thanks to the @researchdigest.bsky.social for featuring our recent paper on how raising the arm on which a capsaicin patch has been applied dramatically changes the pain elicited by the patch in question! doi.org/10.1002/ejp....

Effect of limb position change on capsaicin‐evoked pain: Evidence of interplays between the vascular and nociceptive systems?

Background This experiment aimed at confirming our incidental observation that, when capsaicin is applied on the volar forearm, raising the arm to a vertical position leads to a dramatic increase in.....

Blood vessels probably aren't the first thing you'd associate with feeling pain. New findings from @acourtin.bsky.social and team, however, suggest that they may play a larger role than we suspected: www.bps.org.uk/research-dig...

Are blood vessels secret players in pain? | BPS

A surprise finding leaves researchers with “more questions than answers.”

Is our sensitivity to pain influenced by signals coming from our blood vessels? This could explain why when we raise the arm on which a capsaicin patch is applied, the pain becomes much worse, a phenomenon we describe and probe in our latest paper doi.org/10.1002/ejp.... A 🧵

📄 Our new preprint is out! In a new study of more than 250 individuals, we investigated the link between mental health and sensitivity to acute thermal pain 🌡️😣.

A quick reminder that if you think that activity in beta band is an oscillation, think again. β band is dominated by bursts that are not homogeneous. Diversity of the β burst waveforms exceed characteristics found in time-freq. We havecode and nice figures 🧪 #neuroskyence doi.org/10.1016/j.pn...

The Body Pain and Perception Lab will be well represented at the EFIC congress next week! Here is a little summary of what we will be presenting. Looking forward to discuss pain science with old and new friends in Budapest 😊 #EFIC2023

What you expect is what you feel - preliminary data from our study on the reliability of thermal pain learning. Expectations flexibly modulate pain ratings. #neuroskyence #psychscisky

Super excited to share our new preprint, the first from my new postdoc! We attempted to unravel the phenomenon of Paradoxical Heat Sensation (PHS) using computational principles from vision science in a large-scale psychophysical study (n > 200). #neuroskyence www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
