Four tiny 3D organs connected themselves in a lab dish, forming a replica of the human pain pathway, in a new study. The discovery allows scientists to better understand chronic pain and how pain ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...

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.

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 ...

Experts explain the science behind chronic pain and how to finally find relief with treatments that target your body and ...

New research into the mechanism of the placebo effect sheds light on the brain circuitry involved in pain relief. The study, conducted by scientists at the University of North Carolina (UNC), Stanford ...

Researchers in Hong Kong have developed a neuromorphic electronic skin that allows humanoid robots to sense touch, detect ...
