Exploring olfactory sensory networks: Simulations and hardware emulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Olfactory stimuli are represented in a highdimensional space by neural networks of the olfactory system. A great deal of research in olfaction has focused on this representation within the first processing stage, the olfactory bulb (vertebrates) or ...

Short-term availability of adult-born neurons for memory encoding

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Olfactory bulb neurogenesis raises the question of how persistent olfactory memories are retained while remaining flexible to encode new memories. Here, the authors show that new neurons can only support a single odor memory within their critical period ...

Learning to smell danger: Acquired associative representation of threat in the olfactory cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Neuroscience research over the past few decades has reached a strong consensus that the amygdala plays a key role in emotion processing. However, many questions remain unanswered, especially concerning emotion perception.

Olfactory perception as a compass for olfactory neural maps

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2011
The mammalian brain commonly uses structural proximity to reflect proximity in stimulus and perceptual space. Objects or object features that are near each other in physical structure or perception are also near each other in the brain. This generates sensory maps.

Predicting olfactory receptor neuron responses from odorant structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background Olfactory receptors work at the interface between the chemical world of volatile molecules and the perception of scent in the brain. Their main purpose is to translate chemical space into information that can be processed by neural circuits ...

Renewing odorants during olfactory training: an efficient strategy to improve olfactory perception, cognition and well-being in the elderly?

open access: yes
International audienceNormal aging is characterized by a global decline in cognition and sensory acuity, including olfaction. Over 25% of individuals aged over 50 suffer from olfactory deficits, that negatively impact living conditions, notably through ...

An olfactory demography of a diverse metropolitan population

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2012
Background Human perception of the odour environment is highly variable. People vary both in their general olfactory acuity as well as in if and how they perceive specific odours.

The Olfactory System: Basic Anatomy and Physiology for General Otorhinolaryngologists [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2023
Olfaction is one of the five basic human senses, and it is known to be one of the most primitive senses. The sense of olfaction may have been critical for human survival in prehistoric society, and although many believe its importance has diminished over

Enhanced odor discrimination and impaired olfactory memory by spatially controlled switch of AMPA receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Genetic perturbations of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate receptors (AMPARs) are widely used to dissect molecular mechanisms of sensory coding, learning, and memory.
