Identification and functional characterization of D-fructose receptor in an egg parasitoid, Trichogramma chilonis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
In insects, the gustatory system has a critical function not only in selecting food and feeding behaviours but also in growth and metabolism. Gustatory receptors play an irreplaceable role in insect gustatory signalling.

A pair of pharyngeal gustatory receptor neurons regulates caffeine-dependent ingestion in Drosophila larvae

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
The sense of taste is an essential chemosensory modality that enables animals to identify appropriate food sources and control feeding behavior. In particular, the recognition of bitter taste prevents animals from feeding on harmful substances. Feeding

Dopaminergic and Non-Dopaminergic Value Systems in Conditioning and Outcome-Specific Revaluation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Animals are motivated to choose environmental options that can best satisfy current needs. To explain such choices, this paper introduces the MOTIVATOR (Matching Objects To Internal Values Triggers Option Revaluations) neural model.

Beyond multimedia adaptation: Quality of experience-aware multi-sensorial media delivery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Multiple sensorial media (mulsemedia) combines multiple media elements which engage three or more of human senses, and as most other media content, requires support for delivery over the existing networks.

Mapping the subgingival HerBiome and HisBiome over the human healthspan

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Understanding the intricate relationship between sex, age, and the oral microbiome is crucial for deciphering the onset and progression of numerous age‐related oral and systemic diseases. Methods Subgingival plaque was collected from 781 periodontally and systemically healthy females and 160 males spanning 0 to 80 years.

The Main Issues on Gustatory Aesthetics

open access: yesCoSMO, 2015
This article presents the main issues on gustatory aesthetics, a field which appeared recently in the academic programms. As shown in the first part, gustatory aesthetics is about the non-metaphorical use of taste.

Uma comparação das interações sensoriais entre Espanha e Portugal. Os resultados de um workshop de design sinestésico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
: Synaesthesia is the result of automatic processes of human perception that combine sensations of different sensory modalities. Throughout this paper, we are going to present the results of a Synaesthetic Design Workshop, made with design students of

Possible multiple evolution of indirect telencephalo-cerebellar pathways in teleosts: studies in Carassius auratus and Pantodon buchholzi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Among vertebrates, telencephalo-pontine systems exist only in birds and mammals. However, three nuclei in the diencephalon and mesencephalon of teleost fishes have been indicated — analogous to the pons — to represent relay stations between telencephalon

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).
