Findings

Everyone's brain has a unique 'pain fingerprint'.

Findings

Findings

Using brain scans, researchers found significant differences in the timing, frequency, and location of gamma oscillations - brain waves linked to pain perception.

Findings

Findings

Surprisingly, some individuals showed no gamma waves at all.
