Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

Scientists have re-created a pain pathway in the brain by growing four key clusters of human nerve cells in a dish. This laboratory model could be used to help explain certain pain syndromes, and ...

Scientists created a model of the human pain pathway in a dish by connecting four separate brain organoids. The feat should help them understand sensory disorders like those affecting pain perception.

Central poststroke pain (CPSP) is an under-recognized and severe complication of stroke, and remains extremely difficult to treat by conventional pharmacological means Pathophysiologically, CPSP might ...

Neuropathic pain—that is, pain arising directly from a lesion or disease that affects the somatosensory system—is a common clinical problem, and typically causes patients intense distress. Patients ...
