Not all pain is created equal: stepping on a nail feels different from a stomachache. We know there are many nociceptor types, but a key question remains: how is mechanical pain encoded across the body by those sensory neurons? Our new work helps answer this. 1/8

Hierarchical organization of mechano-nociceptive pathways revealed by activity labeling
Noxious mechanical stimuli give rise to distinct percepts, from sharp cutaneous pain to diffuse visceral discomfort, yet the nociceptor ensembles that underlie these differences remain poorly defined....

It was a pleasure to host Ewan at our Linköping University LinkSense seminar series! We learned a lot about joints — and even managed to gossip a bit about naked mole rats. Always a good time.
Flew in late last night to visit @szczotml.bsky.social
& co @liu.se - looking forward to an exciting day discussing touch & pain - early morning 🏃🏻‍♂️ = ✅ = 🕸️ 🧹

Thank you Melisa, It has been a fascinating journey on an uncharted road. It is official now we have the first Lab Alumni! Little sour/sweet feeling TBH. Good luck in your new adventures.
I really think one of the best things about science is the people you meet along the way. Thanks @mbrodzki.bsky.social,Gabriela, Leandro, Christoffer and Felipe!Especially thanks to @szczotml.bsky.social and Ilona,I really enjoyed all our discussions!
Now, I'm very excited about what's coming next!
