商品簡介
The textbook provides an overview of the intersection between field of sensory science, sensory nutrition, and the genomics of related, or co-occurring, symptoms, the current state-of-the-science, and challenges that remain in and the prevention of metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes and as well as eating disorders. It brings differing views in the field together and provides examples of translational science from using cellular and rodent models to human clinical trials and community health.
The volume structure leads the reader through the physiology of taste and smell and genomics into how sensory testing for taste and smell is studied, basic mechanisms, various protocols that are used throughout the field along with the pros/cons of the current methods used, and project into the future of sensory science, nutrition, and genomics and health surveillance. This resource is intended for classroom teaching, for novice researchers in symptom science and sensory research as well as students and postdoctoral fellows. Example of courses are nutrition, basic nursing, interdisciplinary health courses, sensory perception (psychology), neuroscience, and medical courses, dentistry, food science and others.
