lopez-solaCU Psychology and Neuroscience postdoc Marina López-Solà (Wager Lab) was in the news, with a segment about her research appearing on Denver's Channel 6 News and also an article in CU Boulder Today, CU's online newspaper. The research, published in the journal Pain and coauthored with some members of Tor Wager's lab and other researchers, examined the neural signature of fybromyalgia. The researchers used fMRI scans of fibromyalgia patients and controls to identify 3 neurological patterns that correlated with pain hypersensitivity, a characteristic of fybromyalgia. These patterns could prove useful in diagnosing and treating fibromyalgia. Watch the Channel 7 News segment, read the Boulder Today article, or read the original research paper.
