It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

Complementary neuronal recordings in primates, and functional neuroimaging in humans,
show that the primary taste cortex in the anterior insula provides separate and combined …

The book you are about to read is about research that asks questions like" How do our

Summer green tea (SGT) has poor flavor due to its high levels of bitterness and astringency.
The present study aimed to improve the flavor of SGT using the yellowing process. The …

Flavor is perhaps the most multi-modal of all of our sensory experiences. Here flavor is
defined as a perception that includes gustatory, oral-somatosensory, and retronasal …

Recent behavioral and neuroimaging studies demonstrate that labeling one's emotional
experiences and perceptions alters those states. Here, we used a comprehensive meta …

Functional neuroimaging methods have been used extensively during the last decades to
explore the neural substrates of olfactory processing. While a general consensus on the …

Olfactory dysfunction has been well studied in depression. Common brain areas are
involved in depression and in the olfactory process, suggesting that olfactory impairments …

Smells can arise from a source external to the body and stimulate the olfactory epithelium
upon inhalation through the nares (orthonasal olfaction). Alternatively, smells may arise from …

Subjectively perceived impairment of taste is a common and distinct symptom of coronavirus
