Project Details

Description

Ishmail Abdus-Saboor is interested in the skin-brain axis for tactile sensations. He wants to understand how the brain generates the perception of pain and pleasure based on sensory stimuli applied to the skin. Working in mice and naked mole-rats, Abdus-Saboor and his team are integrating the peripheral and central nervous systems, seeking to uncover genes and neural circuits for somatosensation.
