Body in mind: the role of the brain in chronic pain
• What role does the brain play in chronic and complex pain?
• How does the brain change when pain persists?
• Can you influence the amount of pain you feel?
• Why does someone who has lost a limb still feel pain? Can the pain be treated?
• What are the broader implications of the research in developing better treatments for people in pain?
