Probing the representation of pain in the human brain

Year: 2018

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The experience of pain plays a crucial role in our daily life. In normal conditions, painful sensations warn us of potential or actual threats, which can harm our tissues and compromise our bodily integrity. Thanks to this experience, we develop appropriate protection behaviours, and the aversive aspect of pain may condition the learning we can draw from pain.
