My research program leverages human neuroimaging and recent advances in computational modelling and artificial intelligence to understand pain perception and modulation. This overarching goal is pursued via two complementary streams. A first theory-driven research stream aims to identify coherent computational and neural architectures capable of explaining and predicting pain perception and pain avoidance. A second data-driven research stream aims to create and interpret sensitive, specific, and generalizable brain-based biomarkers of pain perception capable of predicting pain intensity across individuals and pain modalities.

I am a Researcher. I have excellent skills in computer science, biomedical engineering, neuroscience, data science, cancer cell biology, and bioinformatics. Currently, I am working on the CASP15 project, In this project I am working on protein structure prediction with the help of a machine-learning algorithm and also I am working on a neuroscience project at FENS. Previously I have done many thesis and project work in terms of neuroscience with the help of natural language processing, and deep learning. I am also doing my research in cancer biology in an open lab at Cancer Research UK.
My Area of Interest:- Clinical Research in Medicine, Neuroscience, Cell Biology, Cancer Biology, Computer Science and related fields, etc.

Working in:
- Computational and dynamical brain models
- Peripheral stimulation
I am interested in the neurocomputational mechanism of touch, temperature and pain perception in physiological and pathological conditions. To probe them, I use a combination of psychophysics, EEG and fMRI combined with computational modelling.

Nicole Urbini
Working in:
- Computational and dynamical brain models
- Non-invasive brain stimulation
- Virtual reality
I am interested in the study of cerebellar involvement in cognitive and social functions in healthy population and psychopathology. More in depth, I am focusing on the study of cerebello-cerebral pathways.

I work at Sam Hughes Pain Lab in Exeter (ExPain). My research covers an array of mechanism-based approaches to study and treat pain, including functional neuroimaging, phycophysics, behavioural testing, and interviews. Most recently, my work focuses on the use of virtual reality to treat acute and chronic pain.
