Joe Yazhuo Kong

PhD/Postdoc/Junior faculty positions available & welcome to join our group in Beijing, to work on pain neuroscience, brain & spinal cord imaging, chronic pain mechanisms! Details: linip.psych.ac.cn/eng/joinus.html 中文: linip.psych.ac.cn/chs/joinus.html Please RT! @CogNeuroJobs

Excited to share the latest study from our group: with simultaneous cortico-spinal fMRI, we revealed systematic neural evidence of the analgesic mechanisms induced by TENS! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Mark your calendar! The #SpinalCWorkshop23 will be Nov 14-16. This workshop is for researchers & clinicians who are interested in using #MRI to study the human #spinalcord. Learn more & register @ education.martinos.org/home/martinos-…

Dr. Yazhou (Joe) Kong, Prof @ Inst of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Sciences will discuss "#RestingState #SpinalCord Functional #Imaging" at #SpinalCworkshop21! What questions do you have for @JoeYzkong🧐? Register now! bit.ly/MartinosSCwork… (registration closes Nov 14)

Only 2 weeks until the inaugural @mghmartinos workshop for researchers/clinicians interested in #MRI and #fMRI to study the human #spinalcord - we'll spare you various pitfalls and failures based upon our many years of #imaging experience! Learn more --> bit.ly/MartinosSCwork…

Thanks for organising the Spinal Cord Workshop! All topics are so interesting and really looking forward to it!

Wow, amazing study of social information processing in the spinal cord! Congratulations!

Wonderful #FSLcourse 2024 and great teaching teammates! @OxfordWIN @FSLeyes

Latest interesting finding from LINIP lab: An age-associated decline in heat pain perception (but not pressure pain) was observed in the older people! academic.oup.com/ageing/article…

Heads up all Chinese imaging scientists! We will release all #FSL course videos with Chinese subtitles soon on Bilibili & Youtube! Thanks to @OxfordWIN @fmrib_steve @PersonomicsLab @FSLeyes! Stay tuned: WeChat account (LINIP-IPCAS) & Bilibili channel b23.tv/X3lyNaG

How Nostalgia Can Act as a Pain-Reliever? Thalamus is the key! jneurosci.org/content/42/14/…

We are proud to launch WINGS: the WIN Global Scholars Programme. We are looking for early career researchers from the Global South to be remotely affiliated with WIN for a year. Please retweet to help us find 2022's Global Scholars! 1/3

Second part of our sexism-related stigma study is now out in @NeuroImage_EiC! dACC may play a central role in mediating the affective aspect of physical pain after experiencing discrimination. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Wonderful gift from my little girl! ❤️❤️❤️ Great inspiration but not sure if I can make it ... 🤣

The Pain Beat (Episode 7) is now online. painresearchforum.org/forums/intervi… It was as if Howard Fields invited us (@torwager, @lab_seal and Irene Tracey) to his home to have (a very enjoyable) conversation about what we have learned about pain using neuroimaging.

Chinese pain neuroscientists, please join us every month for Pain Publication Round! First authors of new publications will share their work and PIs will join the discussion!

This virus does not discriminate, people do. So sad.

The facts speak for themselves.

My new motto 😎

Our latest study showed that sexism-related stigma affects physical pain perception, representing as reduction of threshold/tolerance, increase of pain rating, and modulation of pain-evoked brain responses. doi.org/10.1155/2021/6…
