Developmental alterations in noxious-evoked EEG activity recorded from rat primary somatosensory cortex (2015)
Journal Article
Devonshire, I. M., Greenspon, C. M., & Hathway, G. J. (2015). Developmental alterations in noxious-evoked EEG activity recorded from rat primary somatosensory cortex. Neuroscience, 305, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroscience.2015.08.004

Primary somatosensory cortex (S1) contains a nociceptive map that localizes potential tissue damage on the body and encodes stimulus intensity. An objective and specific biomarker of pain however is currently lacking and is urgently required for use...

A quantification of the relationship between neuronal responses in the rat rostral ventromedial medulla and noxious stimulation-evoked withdrawal reflexes (2015)
Journal Article
Devonshire, I. M., Kwok, C., Suvik, A., Haywood, A. R., Cooper, A. H., & Hathway, G. (in press). A quantification of the relationship between neuronal responses in the rat rostral ventromedial medulla and noxious stimulation-evoked withdrawal reflexes. European Journal of Neuroscience, 42(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/ejn.12942

The rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM) regulates a range of involuntary behaviours but is most often associated with nociception via the action of pronociceptive ON cells and antinociceptive OFF cells. The phasic responses of ON and OFF cells determi...
