Automated home-cage for the evaluation of innate non-reflexive pain behaviors in a mouse model of inflammatory pain
Abstract The failure to develop analgesic drugs is attributed not only to the complex and diverse pathophysiology of pain in humans but also to the poor experimental design and poor preclinical assessment of pain. Although considerable efforts have been devoted to overcoming the relevant problems, m...
