I completed my B.Sc and M.Sc degree in Neuroscience at the University of Toronto, Canada. I obtained my PhD degree at the Donders Institute for Cognitive Neuroimaging, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. After a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of California, Davis, I was appointed as an Assistant Professor at the Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam. I am currently an Associate Professor at the School of Psychology, University of Birmingham (United Kingdom), and a Principal Investigator at the Centre for Human Brain Health.
A significant predictor of whether an individual will get chronic pain is the acute pain experienced immediately after surgery. If clinicians can pre-operatively identify which patients are highly pain sensitive, they can take pre-emptive steps to minimize it and prevent its chronification. Here I will present evidence that an individual’s resting peak frequency of alpha activity, measured using EEG , can predict their sensitivity to pain after surgery.
