Professor @PeterGoadsby, who leads the theme, explains our vision for chronic pain and headache research and treatment... He is also Professor of Neurology Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, and Director King's CRF

Our #Neuroimaging theme aims to improve our understanding of the biological processes behind conditions, and our prediction of responses to treatment. We are developing new imaging techniques and making neuroimaging more accessible. ➡️maudsleybrc.nihr.ac.uk/research/neuro…

Congratulations to Dr @bannister_lab for receiving the The British Pain Society 2023 Patrick D. Wall Award at the Annual Scientific Meeting, where she gave her plenary lecture about the top-down control of pain in health and disease. 🔗 ⬇️ #IoPPNNews @WolfsonCARD buff.ly/4366pgY

Hey #ChronicPain peeps! Anyone living with arthritis pain (OA, RA...) that would be willing to help us shape our research studies and PPI strategy at different levels? Looking forward to hear from you! Pain Concern Chronic Pain Champions The British Pain Society

At #OHBM2023 and interested in #spinalfMRI? Come find me at poster 1231 today!

Had a great time sharing my research on the effect of High Frequency Electrical Stimulation on the brain at OHBM. If you didn't get a chance to stop by, I'll be there tomorrow too! Poster number: 2587. #OHBM2023

And that's a wrap on OHBM 2023. Great people and great science - already excited for next year!

New paper out with Olivia Kowalczyk | @[email protected] and Matt Howard discussing how novel neuroimaging approaches can help us dissect and deploy top-down modulatory mechanisms in pain! 1/n journals.lww.com/co-supportivea…

Recording for my OHBM2023 keynote talk is now available through Youtube youtube.com/watch?v=z8MkmB… slides are on our website metrics-lab.github.io/talks/. Get in touch if you have any questions or requests. I know a few interested people missed it so please RT

Is it time to move on from the BioPsychoSocial model (BPSm)? We think it might be: in our new paper BrainBehavImm we propose the new Keystone Mechanism Theory of Pain which aims to grapple with the heterogeneity that plagues clinical neuroscience. 1/13 🧵

Please share this PhD opportunity, working with myself, Sam Hughes, @JenStephDavies, and Prof Tony Pickering across four institutions. Four years funding plus generous research and training allowance to study CNS changes in pathological pain. gw4biomed.ac.uk/brain-stimulat…

🌟Come and do a PhD with me, Matt Howard Olivia Kowalczyk | @[email protected] Joe Barnby! 🌟 We have a project available through the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience MRC DTP, focusing on top-down modulation of responses to aversive stimuli, see below for more details and reach out if interested! kcl-mrcdtp.com/project/self-a…
