In this week’s Featured Image, Thouaye and Carrasquillo advocate for rigorous interpretation of nociceptive-state signals in fiber photometry. Rigorous experimental design, appropriate controls, artifact correction, behavioral alignment, and histological verification of recording sites do not eliminate uncertainty but increase confidence in the interpretation of fluorescence changes in the context of nociceptive-state dynamics.
