    PS, don’t forget there are direct nociceptive paths in the dorsal horn with nociceptive specific neurons. The WDR interaction is merely a feature of the distributed nature of the apparatus. I suggest reading Coghil which calls it a “system” pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32800534/

    @AsafKlaf @TheMvmtMechanic I've just reread a couple of your papers and key supporting references... i.e., https://t.co/PR7JLjFzAi Is there a clear description of the "nociceptive apparatus" or a figure? Not the concept of what it is, but rather the structures. Sorry, but I'm not seeing it.

Abstract Synopsis

  • The Distributed Nociceptive System is a new framework that helps explain how the brain processes pain by emphasizing the role of widespread neural populations working together, making pain perception resilient to disruptions.
  • This approach combines neural population coding and distributed processing, highlighting how pain involves complex and widespread neural activity across different parts of the nervous system.
  • Understanding pain as a distributed system supports the development of non-drug therapies, like cognitive and physical treatments, which can target the broad neural networks involved in chronic pain.]
