Lissa Davis studies how people perceive taste and smell, with a focus on making vegetables and other foods more appealing, especially to children. Her recent work explores 'gamifying' food exposure (turning tasting experiences into games) to increase liking of vegetable flavors, alongside studies of how saliva, aroma, and taste qualities interact to shape flavor perception.
