Ajouter à votre calendrierA unique opportunity to discuss the most recent advances in our understanding of nociceptive neuronal circuit function.
The conference will bring together scientists studying:
- Normal and neuropathic nociceptive circuit function
- The emotive and discriminatory dimensions of pain
- The interface between nociception and other somatosensory modalities
- The development and maturation of pain circuits
- How noxious stimuli are translated into behavioural responses
Some of the techniques and concepts featured at this conference include:
- Electrophysiological properties of nociceptive circuits
- Molecular profiling of nociceptive neurons
- Circuit tracing using classical and viral approaches
- Chemogenetic and optogenetic manipulation of neural circuits
- Molecular and genetic basis of neural circuit assembly
The conference is also an opportunity for trainees to interact with the world experts on nociceptive circuits: most submitted trainee abstracts will be presented in poster format, while a selection of them will be presented orally.
