Researchers identify the neurons involved in the emotional distress associated with pain

Chronic pain could be eased by uncoupling the sensory and emotional experiences
Researchers identify the neurons involved in the emotional distress associated with pain, and design a genetic approach that could soothe suffering without opioid drugs.

I'm working on a jumpsuit to wear to QuiltCon. I've decided to make patches for hardcore bands but make them quilting related.
Today I finished the back patch. My partner thinks it's too niche and the overlap between vegan hardcore and quilting is just me.

A @statnews.com exclusive from me: Walter Koroshetz, director of NIH's neurological disorders institute, has been ousted. Yet another example of NIH leadership churn. His departure means that 13 of the agency's 27 divisions will have interim leaders.
