Humans make decisions about food every day. The visual system provides important
information that forms a basis for these food decisions. Although previous research has …

Studies of the neural response to food pictures have identified responses in food-associated
regions, such as the insula, amygdala, and orbitofrontal cortex. However, beyond this …

Several previous imaging studies have aimed at identifying the neural basis of visual food
cue processing in humans. However, there is little consistency of the functional magnetic …

Visual recognition of objects may rely on different features depending on the category to
which they belong. Recognizing natural objects, such as fruits and plants, weighs more on …

Among all of the stimuli surrounding us, food is arguably the most rewarding for the essential
role it plays in our survival. In previous visual recognition research, it has already been …

Although neuroimaging research has evidenced specific responses to visual food stimuli
based on their nutritional quality (eg, energy density, fat content), brain processes …

Food selection is primarily guided by the visual system. Multiple functional neuro-imaging
studies have examined the brain responses to visual food stimuli. However, the results of …

Understanding food liking, which shapes individual preferences for certain foods, is
important for enhancing consumer satisfaction, encouraging healthier eating habits, and …

An evolutionarily ancient skill we possess is the ability to distinguish between food and non-
food. Our goal here is to identify the neural correlates of visually driven 'edible …

How food valuation and decision-making influence the perception of food is of major interest
to better understand food intake behavior and, by extension, body weight management. Our …
