Angelica´s PhD project focuses on the study of the cancer patients’ preferences for the Mediterranean diet. Specifically, the study will explore the role of sensory sensitivity, emotions and personality traits in food preferences in cancer patients, in order to design and validate innovative food. My research interests deal with multimodal perception, human sensory and hedonic responses to food, cognitive psychology (emotions and memory), neuroscience, food preference and health psychology.
