Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
Tonic Pain and Transauricular Vagal Nerve Stimulation
This study aims to explore the effect of burst-taVNS (electric stimulation of the concha cymba) on tonic (capsaicin-induced skin pain) and acute (pressure pain sensitivity) experimental pain and cardioception.

Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
How do Alpha Oscillations Shape the Perception of Pain? - An EEG-based Neurofeedback Study
Pain is closely linked to alpha oscillations (8 -13 Hz) which are thought to represent a supra-modal, top-down mediated gating mechanism that shapes sensory processing.
- Trial name
- NCT05570695
- Testing
- attention right training, ARTNF, attention left training, ALTNF
- Where
- Germany
- Volunteers
- 75 people, healthy volunteers welcome
- Sponsor
- Technical University of Munich
Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
Intra- and Inter-individual Differences of Pain
Pain is a highly subjective and variable phenomenon. Different persons perceive objectively identical nociceptive stimuli differently.
- Trial name
- NCT05616091
- Testing
- painful stimulation by using a laser device (DEKA Stimul 1340, Calenzano, Italy)
- Where
- Germany
- Volunteers
- 162 people, healthy volunteers welcome

Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Participants
Sensory Evidence and Expectations in Pain Processing
Pain is a highly complex and subjective phenomenon which is not only rooted in sensory information but also shaped by cognitive processes such as expectation.
- Trial name
- NCT04296968
- Testing
- Painful stimulation using a laser device (DEKA Stimul 1340, Calenzano, Italy), Visual cueing
- Where
- Germany
- Volunteers
- 50 people, healthy volunteers welcome

Experimental Pain in Healthy Human Subjects
Modulating Pain Using Transcranial Alternating Stimulation (tACS) in Healthy Human Subjects
Pain is a highly complex and subjective phenomenon which results from the dynamic integration of sensory and contextual (i.e. cognitive, emotional, and motivational) processes.
- Trial name
- NCT03805854
- Testing
- 10 Hz tACS of the bilateral somatosensory cortex, 10 Hz tACS of the prefrontal cortex, 80 Hz tACS of the bilateral somatosensory cortex
- Where
- Germany
- Volunteers
- 39 people, healthy volunteers welcome
