@mitbrainandcog
How does the brain perceive touch? How does it process pain? Could what we know about pain better inform treatments for addiction?

OUR LAB GOES MOBILE!
The realization of a decade-long dream to have a mobile Cognitive Neurophysiology Laboratory.
The mobile unit allows us to go where our participants are, to take our high-density electrophysiology on the road. That's a WRAP folks!

Just a thought. If Ireland can repeal the 8th amendment, wouldn"t this be a great time for us all here in the U.S. to repeal the 2nd amendment.

Dear Van,
I am a scientist and I can assure you that you would not like to hear me singing on your stage - I'll leave that entirely up to you and your superb band. Can I ask in return, however, that you kindly refrain from handing out advice in our world. Seem reasonable?
