Pharmacogenomics and the Placebo Response [PDF]
There is perhaps no more important time in the history of placebos to consider their role in clinical trials and in medicine. Increasingly well-designed pharmaceutical and academic clinical trials testing promising and established drug and surgical interventions have failed to "beat" the placebo response.

Neurobiological Mechanisms of Placebo Responses [PDF]
Expectations, positive or negative, are modulating factors influencing behavior. They are also thought to underlie placebo effects, potentially impacting perceptions and biological processes. We used sustained pain as a model to determine the neural mechanisms underlying placebo‐induced analgesia and affective changes in healthy humans.
