DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-24334-x
Abstract: Understanding cognitive processes that translate chemically diverse olfactory stimuli to specific appetitive drives remains challenging. We have shown that food-related odors arouse impulsive-like feeding of food media that are palatable and readily accessible in well-nourished… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/chemse/bjz069
Abstract: Evidence suggests that women outperform men in core aspects of odor perception, and sex hormones may play a significant role in moderating this effect. The gender-affirming treatment (GAT) of transgender persons constitutes a powerful natural… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2022.964742
Abstract: The olfactory system—and odor perception by extension—is susceptible to state-dependent influences. This review delves into human behavioral research in this area, and also touches on mechanistic evidence and examples from animal work. The review summarizes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.998612
Abstract: Olfactory perception, and especially affective responses of odors, is highly flexible, but some mechanisms involved in this flexibility remain to be elucidated. This study investigated the odor perceptions of several essential oils used in aromatherapy… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/app11083320
Abstract: Semantic odor perception descriptors, such as “sweet”, are widely used for product quality assessment in food, beverage, and fragrance industries to profile the odor perceptions. The current literature focuses on developing as many as possible… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.49734
Abstract: Whether neurons encode information through their spike rates, their activity times or both is an ongoing debate in systems neuroscience. Here, we tested whether humans can discriminate between a pair of temporal odor mixtures (TOMs)… read more here.
