Pain
This roundtable explores the nature of pain as both a biological signal and a subjective experience, examining how it arises, how it is processed in the nervous system, and how it relates to affect, behavior, and homeostasis. It also considers current scientific approaches to pain management, including the use and risks of analgesics such as opioids, and reflects on the ethical challenges involved in advancing pain research and treatment for both humans and other species.
