Journal Article
Wu, B., Eldeghaidy, S., Ayed, C., Fisk, I. D., Hewson, L., & Liu, Y. (2022). Mechanisms of umami taste perception: From molecular level to brain imaging. Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 62(25), 7015-7024. https://doi.org/10.1080/10408398.2021.1909532

Due to unique characteristics, umami substances have gained much attention in the food industry during the past decade as potential replacers to sodium or fat to increase food palatability. Umami is not only known to increase appetite, but also to in... Read More about Mechanisms of umami taste perception: From molecular level to brain imaging.

Thermal taster status: Temperature modulation of cortical response to sweetness perception (2020)
Journal Article
Eldeghaidy, S., Yang, Q., Abualait, T., Williamson, A., Hort, J., & Francis, S. T. (2021). Thermal taster status: Temperature modulation of cortical response to sweetness perception. Physiology and Behavior, 230, Article 113266. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2020.113266

© 2020 Temperature is known to impact taste perception, but its reported effect on sweet taste perception in humans is inconsistent. Here, we assess whether thermal taste phenotype alters the temperature modulation of the brains’ response to sweet sa...

A nociresponsive specific area of human somatosensory cortex within BA3a: BA3c? (2020)
Journal Article
Sanchez Panchuelo, R. M., Eldeghaidy, S., Marshall, A., McGlone, F., Francis, S. T., & Favorov, O. (2020). A nociresponsive specific area of human somatosensory cortex within BA3a: BA3c?. NeuroImage, 221, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.117187

© 2020 It is well recognized that in primates, including humans, noxious body stimulation evokes a neural response in the posterior bank of the central sulcus, in Brodmann cytoarchitectonic subdivisions 3b and 1 of the primary somatosensory cortex. T... Read More about A nociresponsive specific area of human somatosensory cortex within BA3a: BA3c?.
