Original: Drs. Strigo, Simmons, @storrisi.bsky.social, @benalter.bsky.social, et al. identified distinct neural phenotypes of pain anticipation in chronic low back pain (cLBP) and examined their clinical and physiological correlates in 43 cLBP patients.
FULL:
Pain perception and emotional processing share common predictive mechanisms influenced by anticipation, expectation, and uncertainty. This study identifies distinct neural phenotypes of pain…

Finally research is considering the functional/ anatomical complexity of the brain.
It's not about regions, but how circuits function dynamically.

Selecting an effect size for power analysis is hard.
Many researchers fall back on Cohen's thresholds, but they have no empirical basis and vary wildly by field. Our new paper offers a better option: field-specific effect size distributions built from meta-analytic data doi.org/10.3758/s134...
After rereading the cool hidden brain paper (www.frontiersin.org/journals/sys...) I decided to make a new version. Code and everything available here:

Most popular: hippocampus. Why are diagonal band, medial geniculate nucleus, and interposed nucleus so unpopular?
I’m very sad to share that Howard Fields has died. He made seminal discoveries in pain modulation, placebo, and addiction. He was also a wonderful mentor and friend who taught me how to think about the brain and the joy of scientific discovery.
