Journal Article
Felton, N., Lewis, J. S., Cockburn, S. J., Hodgson, M., & Dawson, S. (2021). Pain assessment for individuals with advanced dementia in care homes: A systematic review. Geriatrics, 6(4), Article 101. https://doi.org/10.3390/geriatrics6040101

The structural and functional connectivity neural underpinnings of body image (2021)
Journal Article
Moayedi, M., Noroozbahari, N., Hadjis, G., Themelis, K., Salomons, T. V., Newport, R., & Lewis, J. S. (2021). The structural and functional connectivity neural underpinnings of body image. Human Brain Mapping, 42(11), 3608-3619. https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.25457

How we perceive our bodies is fundamental to our self-consciousness and our experience in the world. There are two types of interrelated internal body representations—a subjective experience of the position of a limb in space (body schema) and the su...

Visual illusions modulate body perception disturbance and pain in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome: A randomized trial (2021)
Journal Article
Lewis, J. S., Newport, R., Taylor, G., Smith, M., & McCabe, C. S. (2021). Visual illusions modulate body perception disturbance and pain in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome: A randomized trial. European Journal of Pain, 25(7), 1551-1563. https://doi.org/10.1002/ejp.1766

Background: Effective treatment of longstanding Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) is a challenge, as causal mechanisms remain elusive. People with CRPS frequently report distorted subjective perceptions of their affected limb. Evidence of pain re...
