if you've wondered where i've been for the last 7 or so years, it was working on this. here's a thread on what we did and what we found:

A novel cortical biomarker can accurately distinguish high and low pain-sensitive individuals and may predict the transition from acute to chronic pain. ja.ma/3FtdLEK

Amazing study led by @daspainbrain showing again that peak alpha frequency (+ corticomotor excitability) is the closest to a biomarker that we have! @JAMANeuro

This week, I've been thinking about pain. And David Lynch.
The former, because of a very cool study in @JAMANeurology which I'll tell you about in a second.
The latter because Dune 1984 and Twin Peaks were transformative to my childhood.

Study by @daspainbrain et al used Electroencephalography (EEG) & Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) "to interrogate the level of pain a person is feeling" ~ @fperrywilson 🩺

Wondered why pain feels different for everyone? Our latest, published in @JAMANeuro , reveals a brain biomarker that predicts individual pain sensitivity and could identify chronic pain risk. Congrats to all at @PainIMPACTNeuRA @UofMaryland @WesternU !

Attention #interoception researchers! We have a new free software tool to assess cardiac interoceptive accuracy (both Whitehead and Schandry tasks).
Our program is called WACARDIA and uses Shimmer Bluetooth ECG sensors and MATLAB!

This is the bad faith bullshit that will be used to demolish all our scientific institutions. Colleagues, you think you can survive this by "not being political"? You're already in a fight, your only choice is whether or not to fight back
Replying to @TRHLofficial
In 2023, the U.S. government spent:
-$500,000 for Dr. Fauci’s transgender monkey study
-A portion of $12M went to study dog rectal temperatures
-$2.7M on studying cats on a treadmill
-$8,400 on a lobster tank for the DOD
-A portion of $12M to study monkeys on meth
