A better understanding of human smell is emerging as scientists interrogate its fundamental elements: the odor molecules that ...

“The senses are critical for memory because they’re at the intersection between our environment, our experiences, and our memory system,” says Susanne Jaeggi, a professor of psychology, applied ...

New research explores the many ways our sensory experiences overlaps, teaching us new ways the brain perceives ...

The olfactory cortex is the part of the brain that processes smell, yet it seems to take sound into account. This result tracks with another CSHL discovery, which shows how sensory cues become ...

Investigating neuronal activity in the brain, this study highlights how olfactory cues are processed, emphasizing the roles of the piriform cortex and amygdala.

Researchers at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB), the University of Bonn and the University of Aachen have investigated the neuronal mechanisms of human odor perception for the first time.

It’s clear that genes, receptors and neurons all play a role in detecting odors. But much of how we make sense of what we sniff remains mysterious. A neuroscientist explains.

Researchers from FSU's Cognitive Affective Neuroscience Lab, led by senior author Wen Li have unearthed a new fear pathway in the human brain routed through the primary olfactory (piriform) cortex.
