Welcome! We are a neuroscience research team at University College London that investigates how the brain shapes touch and pain.
Our goal is to provide a mechanistic understanding of how the brain and behaviour shape the experience of touch and pain, and how the separation between touch and pain narrows in chronic pain conditions. We use two-photon calcium imaging, optogenetics, electrophysiology, and machine vision and machine learning approaches.
