Sensation: new insights into touch and pain

Researchers are working on the basic molecular mechanisms that explain touch and pain.

Together, they compare their work in this area, exchange information about techniques, and carry out joint research on a single mutant mouse with potential deficits in touch and pain sensation that may have clinical relevance for the future of data analyses.
