ISOEN emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches addressing all aspects of odor and taste measurement, from basic theory to applications. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

  • Odor sampling: headspace analysis, dynamic sampling, pre-concentration and storage
  • Chemical sensors: gas, biosensors, ion-selective, optical
  • Sensor systems: electronic noses, electronic tongues, micro-spectrometers, IoT
  • Data analysis: signal processing, pattern recognition, chemometrics, AI, deep learning
  • Industrial applications: quality control, food safety, medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring
  • Robotic systems: robots with chemical senses, drone
  • Scent presentation: olfactometry, olfactory displays, human interface, virtual reality
  • Odor/gustatory perception: evaluation of odor intensity/impression, cross-modal effect, sensory test,
  • ECG/EEG/NIRS measurement
  • Bio-engineering: cell-based olfactory sensors, receptor-based sensors, bio-inspired algorithms
