Research from the RECOVER (Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery) Consortium that was recently published in JAMA Network Open ...

Fossil skulls reveal how extinct mammals smelled the world, with new research linking olfactory bulb size to gene counts.

A brain with a normal olfactory bulb on the left and a brain lacking the bulb on the right. Weizmann Institute of Science The way we perceive the world around us is super complex, but researchers seem ...

To enjoy the scent of morning coffee and freshly baked cookies or to perceive the warning smell of something burning, the brain needs two types of cells, neurons and astrocytes, to work closely with ...

The olfactory neuroepithelium undergoes continual neurogenesis and, after extensive lesions, fully regenerates to maintain sensory function. The stem cell population underlying this regenerative ...

The nearly 2,000 glomeruli that cover the surface of the olfactory bulb are so distinctive that they were noted specifically in the earliest of Cajal's catalogues. They have variously been considered ...

In a recent review article published in Frontiers in Molecular Science, researchers discussed the links between genetic, physical, and neurological conditions and olfactory loss and inflammation. They ...

Male nursery web spiders (Pisaura mirabilis) use the sense of smell in their legs to find mates. Researchers at the University of Greifswald used an electron microscope to discover "olfactory hairs" ...
