Adaptive coding of pain prediction error in the anterior insula

ConclusionsThe study advances our understanding of the neural basis of pain prediction. Alongside existing evidence that the periaqueductal grey codes pain PE and the posterior insula codes pain magnitude, the results highlight a distinct contribution of the left dorsal anterior insula in the processing of pain.
