Sensory Measurements: Coordination and Standardization [PDF]

, 2015
Do sensory measurements deserve the label of “measurement”? We argue that they do. They fit with an epistemological view of measurement held in current philosophy of science, and they face the same kinds of epistemological challenges as physical ...

Olfactory perception as a compass for olfactory neural maps

Trends 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.

Perceiving Smellscapes [PDF]

, 2020
We perceive smells as perduring complex entities within a distal array that might be conceived of as smellscapes. However, the philosophical orthodoxy of Odor Theories has been to deny that smells are perceived as having a distal location.

OLFACTORY PERCEPTION IN MIGRATING SALMON [PDF]

The Journal of General Physiology, 1956
The properties of a repellent for migrating salmon present in mammalian skin are discussed. l-Serine which is present in the washings of human skin has been shown to have repellent activity at extremely high dilution.

Application of artificial intelligence to decode the relationships between smell, olfactory receptors and small molecules

Scientific Reports, 2022
Deciphering the relationship between molecules, olfactory receptors (ORs) and corresponding odors remains a challenging task. It requires a comprehensive identification of ORs responding to a given odorant.

Olfactory Optogenetics: Light Illuminates the Chemical Sensing Mechanisms of Biological Olfactory Systems

Biosensors, 2021
The mammalian olfactory system has an amazing ability to distinguish thousands of odorant molecules at the trace level. Scientists have made great achievements on revealing the olfactory sensing mechanisms in decades; even though many issues need ...

Olfactory neurogenesis plays different parts at successive stages of life, implications for mental health

Frontiers in Neural Circuits
The olfactory bulb is a unique site of continuous neurogenesis, primarily generating inhibitory interneurons, a process that begins at birth and extends through infancy and adulthood.

Olfactory response as a marker for Alzheimer's disease: Evidence from perceptual and frontal lobe oscillation coherence deficit.

PLoS ONE, 2020
High-frequency oscillations of the frontal cortex are involved in functions of the brain that fuse processed data from different sensory modules or bind them with elements stored in the memory.
