The temporal coding of neuronal activity in acute and chronic pain is not fully understood but likely involves brain oscillations. This year the CNAP-AAU TRANSLATIONAL NEUROBIOLOGY OF THE PAIN SYSTEM seminar will focus on brain oscillations in pain conditions. 👇 PLEASE RP.

Congrats to Felix Bott on winning the German Prize for Pain Research 🏆🎉. He received the prize during the German Pain Conference for his EEG study on expectation effects on pain. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Look forward providing the Munich Neurotechnology Lecture November 30th on Stratified Psychiatry in Depression. Will cover both our EEG Brainmarker work as well as TMS Induced Heart-Brain Coupling. mirmi.tum.de/en/mirmi/event…

Great to see this out, has been 3+ years in the making, great work by Helena who took a lot of courage in the challenge of ‘blinded out-of-sample validations’… one of our largest EEG studies!

Joining forces to identify brain imaging biomarkers of chronic pain? The ENIGMA Chronic Pain Working Group furthers large-scale collaborative efforts. We now also work on #EEG. We look forward to welcoming new partners. enigma.ini.usc.edu/ongoing/enigma… ENIGMA Consortium Sylvia Gustin

We are just weeks away from our meeting 🎉 🥳 The full programme is available online pain.euroconferences.org/program.html As always the meeting promises to be packed with novel scientific advances driven by state of the art approaches in the field of pain research. See you there! 🇮🇹 🥂 🧬

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Britta U. Westner, Jan-Mathijs Schoffelen, et al: Towards a more robust non-invasive assessment of functional connectivity doi.org/10.1162/imag_a…

CNAP-AAU & T Graven-Nielsen excited & honored to lead new MSCA DN: FRESCO4NoPain. Looking forward to continue collaborations Ipek Yalcin, Didier Bouhassira, Nadine Attal, Tony Pickering, Markus Ploner, Andre Mouraux, Giulia Liberati, Rohini Kuner, DC de Andrade Danmarks Grundforskningsfond

Our latest preprint is here: shorturl.at/ckAV5. Using the UK Biobank, All of Us, and Open Pain portal, we propose a holistic framework to optimize the prediction of biomarkers for chronic pain.

New preprint: How do centrally acting analgesics influence EEG biomarker candidates for chronic pain? Our results show minimal effects from opioids, antiepileptics, and antidepressants. doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…

Why is every pain we experience individual? Markus Ploner, Professor of Human #PainResearch, explains how pain is processed in the #brain - and why we feel it so differently. Watch this episode of ZDF Terra Xplore (in German): go.tum.de/184298 #Neuroscience 📷ZDF

Peak alpha frequency (PAF) is a promising EEG-based biomarker of pain. We have performed a large study, including multiverse analysis and internal replication, showing that PAF does not universally predict pain sensitivity. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great to see our work on the limitations of large language models in clinical decision-making appearing in Nature Medicine. Thanks to a fantastic set of collaborators! nature.com/articles/s4159…
