Description
This project focusses on a major development in the study of chronic pain in mice – the transition from studying reflexive pain behaviours to voluntary pain behaviours. Historic pain research in mice focussed on reflexive responses to uncomfortable stimuli. Many researchers have begun to develop behavioural tests that assess voluntary behaviours that are more likely to represent the experience of chronic pain.
