Michael Farrell's research focuses on the pivotal role of the brain in regulating the internal state of the human body. His work demonstrates that the stability of the bodily environment depends on multiple processes controlled by the brain, which govern neurohumoral responses and interoceptive sensations. Through functional brain imaging techniques, including functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography, he explores how brain responses relate to interoceptive sensations such as pain and thirst, as well as regulatory behaviors like drinking water and cough suppression. His expertise aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and contributes to collaborative research projects that aim to advance understanding of neural networks involved in cough and other bodily responses.
