interneurons in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) preferentially encode pain intensity and drive nociceptive-evoked gamma oscillations (GBOs). Published online in Neuron on January 13 ...

Phantom limb pain following amputation correlates with primary somatosensory cortex (S1) reorganization. Wrigley et al. hypothesized that a similar mechanism underlies persistent neuropathic pain ...

I investigated the psychological factors and somatosensory characteristics in persons who had patellofemoral pain (PFP). I did this by studying how psychological factors and pain profiles: (1) ...

The barrel cortex consists of the regions of the primary somatosensory cortex that receive input from the whiskers via the thalamus. Barrel cortex is organized into cylindrical columns of neurons ...

HU Li at the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has revealed that parvalbumin (PV) interneurons in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) preferentially encode pain ...
