In people with epilepsy undergoing a pre-surgical monitoring technique called stereo-electroencephalography, electrical leads from a type of depth electrode are implanted throughout the brain. Kehl ...

The olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) system represents a paradigm of specialised gene regulation, wherein individual neurons select and maintain a singular olfactory receptor (OR) from a vast genomic ...

The signaling mechanisms underlying the transition from stem cells to olfactory neurons has been described. Cellular differentiation of stem cells into specialized cells requires many steps, including ...

Researchers from Tomsk Polytechnic University, as part of a scientific collaboration, have created nanoactuators to transport ...

A research team led by scientists at Columbia’s Zuckerman Institute used techniques including single cell genomics, to describe a previously undetected RNA-mediated mechanism in mice that could ...

Mice lacking an olfactory system have had their sense of smell restored with neurons from rats, the first time scientists have successfully integrated the sensory apparatus of one species into another ...

Rendering the invisible visible is among scientists' favorite challenges. In their efforts to uncover how the olfactory system makes sense of thousands of otherwise invisible odors, scientists now ...
