Obesity is associated with a large number of debilitating and life-threatening disorders such as cardiovascular, metabolic and other non-communicable diseases. The childhood roots of adult obesity are widely recognized which calls for health promotion targeted at youth. \u00a0The majority of studies that have investigated cortical responses to food stimuli have used fMRI. This was because of the superior spatial resolution of the technique as well as the nature of the research question. At the very beginning of food studies research questions mainly revolved around the cortical network of food and brain regions involved in satiety and were not concerned with the temporal latency of cortical responses in the view of food (Berthoud, 2002; Berthood &amp; Morrison, 2008). In the current experimental paradigm the research team aims to examine the very premonition of a feeding episode by obese and healthy controls, which could be the key for a chain reaction of healthy feeding habits. Thus magneto-encephalography has been selected as the preferred method of study.<\/p>\n<p>Cordial congratulations for Dr. Stephanos and his research team\u2026Well deserved!<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On behalf of the Dean of the College of Medicine Dr. Khaled Al Kattan, we would like to congratulate Dr&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":2454,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"college-department":[{"term_id":14,"name":"College of Medicine","slug":"college-of-medicine","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":14,"taxonomy":"college-department","description":"","parent":0,"count":363,"filter":"raw"}],"class_list":["post-2226","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-awards","college-department-college-of-medicine"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>DR.
