The olfactory bulb: A neuroendocrine spotlight on feeding and metabolism
Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract Olfaction is the most ancient sense and is needed for food‐seeking, danger protection, mating and survival. It is often the first sensory modality to perceive changes in the external environment, before sight, taste or sound.
