I will be presenting work that will serve as an extension of our latest paper where we discovered that females and males engage distinct endogenous systems to reduce pain academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...
Self-regulated analgesia in males but not females is mediated by endogenous opioids
Abstract. Converging lines of preclinical and clinical research indicate that females, in stark contrast to males, display an increased prevalence of chron

Co-author of said MVPA signatures, @torwager.bsky.social brought to our attention how these findings also demonstrate that placebo reflects neural granularity from other active techniques - countering the notion that placebo has to reflect some shared mechanism with active treatments

Our study enjoyed a large sample size and combined BOLD and ASL fMRI to find that mindfulness meditation reduces pain through distinct MVPA signatures from placebo cream and a not-so-sham mindfulness meditation condition www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000...
Mindfulness Meditation and Placebo Modulate Distinct Multivariate Neural Signatures to Reduce Pain
Rather than a passive reflection of nociception, pain is shaped by the interplay between
