The CEST2022 workshop was held at the Emory Conference Center Hotel from August 7th to 10th, 2022, and attracted over a hundred international participants from North America, Europe, and Asia. The workshop consisted of four plenary talks, 10 scientific sessions, nine invited talks, and 40 talks selected from abstracts. Four discussion sessions were also conducted to build consensus on CEST imaging standardization and quantification. We thank Professors Peter van Zijl, Ravinder Reddy, and Dean Sherry for their Sunday afternoon education session and Professors Linda Knutsson, John Gore, Mortiz Zaiss, and Fahmeed Hyder for their plenary lectures. Abstracts selected for oral presentations were invited to submit to Magnetic Resonance Imaging for peer review and are included in this special issue. Here, we present a summary of the articles featured in this issue.

Evolutionary perspectives have yielded profound insights in health and medical sciences. A fundamental recognition is that modern diet and lifestyle practices are mismatched with the human physiological constitution, shaped over eons in response to environmental selective pressures. This Darwinian angle can help illuminate and resolve issues in nutrition, including the contentious issue of fat consumption.
