Neuroscientists at Stanford University have grown a tiny, two-centimeter-long ‘sausage’ made of human cells that may hold answers to one of medicine’s most persistent mysteries: how pain moves through ...

Scientists develop lab-grown model of the human sensory pathway to investigate how pain signals are transmitted to the brain.

Researchers have recreated the human ascending sensory pathway in a lab dish, using organoids that model the key brain and ...

A scientific team has used millions of human cells to build neural circuits in the laboratory that sense painful stimuli and trigger suffering ...

Scientists created a 3D replica of the human pain pathway using lab-grown organoids, offering insight into chronic pain, autism, and drug testing, no animals needed.

Scientists have recreated the brain circuit responsible for transmitting feelings of pain for the first time. The ...

Scientists have re-created a pain pathway in the brain by growing four key clusters of human nerve cells in a dish. This laboratory model could be used to help explain certain pain syndromes, and ...

A small, preliminary trial and studies in mice draw links between fibromyalgia and alterations of the gut microbiome.

Scientists have recreated in a laboratory the sensory pathway that transmits feelings of pain to the human brain, in a breakthrough that could lead to better treatments. A team at Stanford ...
