Sensory Measurements: Coordination and Standardization [PDF]
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 ...

Pharmacology of Mammalian Olfactory Receptors
Mammalian species have evolved a large and diverse number of odorant receptors (ORs). These proteins comprise the largest family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) known, amounting to ~1,000-different receptors in the rodent. From the perspective of olfactory coding, the availability of such a vast number of chemosensory receptors poses several ...

Inhibition among olfactory receptor neurons [PDF]
Often assumed to be epiphenomena of a cell's activity, extracellular currents and resulting potential changes are increasingly recognized to influence the function of other cells in the vicinity. Experimental evidence shows that even small electric fields can modulate spike timing in neurons.

This review explores invertebrate biohybrid robots that integrate living organisms—such as insects, jellyfish, spiders, and sea slugs—into robotic systems for locomotion, sensing, and actuation. The advantages in efficiency and cost, discuss control, and power challenges are highlighted, and future considerations to guide the development of sustainable,

ABSTRACT Objective There is limited consensus on endoscopic skull base surgery (ESBS) reconstruction principles. This study aims to generate comprehensive themes regarding ESBS reconstruction by pooling the experiences of ESBS experts, with comparison to a literature review of current published evidence.

Activation of most primary sensory neurons results in transduction currents that are carried by cations. One notable exception is the vertebrate olfactory receptor neuron (ORN), where the transduction current is carried largely by the anion $Cl ...
