This Might Hurt (But Maybe Not): How Your Brain Decides What Pain Is
We’ve all felt it — but what is pain, really?
Max will break down the neuroscience behind how your brain interprets threat, sensation, and emotion to decide when something hurts (and when it doesn’t).
Learn why pain isn’t always about injury, how context shapes what we feel, and what new science — including scrambler therapy — is teaching us about chronic pain and healing.
Smart talk, fascinating science — and zero suffering required.
?️ Admission is $5 per person.
? Tardigrade’s Bookshelf Members get complimentary entry to all Fox Valley Science Society events.
☕ Drinks are available, and the bookbar will be open before and after the presentation – come browse, sip, and settle in.
If possible come early to avoid the drink line!
