A newly identified spino-brain-spinal cord loop linking the thalamus, somatosensory cortex, and superior colliculus to descending RVMSC neurons specifically drives chronic mechanical pain, and may offer new cellular targets for intervention. #PainResearch buff.ly/FdiGUU4

Exciting new preprint from the Russo Lab at University of Iowa! Blocking α1‑noradrenergic signaling restores glymphatic flow and reverses migraine‑like allodynia in mice.

New research maps the proteomes of individual sensory neuron subtypes, revealing how protein-level changes drive nociceptor sensitization, opening fresh avenues for #painresearch. @garyrlewin.bsky.social @amapruns.bsky.social

New study in Science: Pain has a clock, and the brain circuit behind it could redefine how we treat chronic pain! #painresearch
More shots from our PRC Symposium yesterday. We were grateful to host wonderful keynote speakers: Dr. Walter Koroshetz, Dr. Lin Chang, Dr. Jeffrey Hubbell, and Dr. Ru-Rong Ji! @karapedsgastrodoc.bsky.social
We are thrilled to bring together the NYU pain research community at our symposium tomorrow! Looking forward to a day of exciting science, connection, and collaboration.

The excitement from the symposium carried into our PRC Retreat, where we had productive and inspiring conversations about the future of our center and how we can drive meaningful advances for people living with pain. #painresearch @karapedsgastrodoc.bsky.social @sdavidson.bsky.social

In mice, a circuit between the spinal cord and various regions of the brain, centring on spinal-cord-projecting neurons in the rostral ventromedial medulla, has a key role in driving chronic pain.
