Olfaction: From Odorant Molecules to the Olfactory Cortex

Anna Menini, Laura Lagostena and Anna Boccaccio

Sector of Neurobiology, International School for Advanced Studies, Scuola Internazionale di Studi Superiori Avanzati, 34014 Trieste, Italy
How do we smell? Our knowledge of how odor information from the environment is perceived has greatly advanced since the discovery of ~1,000 genes for odorant receptors in the mammalian genome. From the combination of molecular-genetic, electrophysiological, and optical imaging studies a better understanding of how we smell is emerging.
