BACKGROUND It is widely believed that the human sense of smell is inferior to that of other
mammals, especially rodents and dogs. This Review traces the scientific history of this idea …

The dynamics, such as transmission, spatial epidemiology, and clinical course of
Coronavirus Disease‐2019 (COVID‐19) have emerged as the most intriguing features and …

Face perception is crucial to social interactions, yet people vary in how easily they can
recognize their friends, verify an identification document or notice someone's smile. There …

Olfactory perception has implications for human chemosensory communication and in a

The olfactory bulbs (OBs) are the first site of odor representation in the mammalian brain,
and their unique ultrastructure is considered a necessary substrate for spatiotemporal …

The sense of smell helps us navigate the environment, but its molecular architecture and
underlying logic remain understudied. The spatial location of odorant receptor genes (Olfrs) …

The mouse olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) repertoire is composed of 10 million cells and
each expresses one olfactory receptor (OR) gene from a pool of over 1000. Thus, the nose is …

Variability in human olfactory sensitivity has been attributed to individual-level factors such
