Researchers have recreated the human ascending sensory pathway in a lab dish, using organoids that model the key brain and ...

New research highlights how the brain’s own chemistry can suppress pain, explaining why severely injured individuals, like WWII soldiers, sometimes feel little discomfort.

Scientists develop lab-grown model of the human sensory pathway to investigate how pain signals are transmitted to the brain.

Mice lacking two neuropeptides thought to be essential for processing pain show no change in how they respond to a wide range of harmful stimuli.

The visual system is the part of the central nervous system that is required for visual perception – receiving, processing and interpreting visual information to build a representation of the ...
