Smelling monomolecular odors hardly ever occurs in everyday life, and the daily functioning
of the sense of smell relies primarily on the processing of complex mixtures of volatiles that …

Historically, the human sense of smell has been regarded as the odd stepchild of the
senses, especially compared to the sensory bravado of seeing, touching, and hearing. The …

Mapping molecular structure to odor perception is a key challenge in olfaction. We used
graph neural networks to generate a principal odor map (POM) that preserves perceptual …

Controlled experimental evolution during antibiotic treatment can help to explain the
processes leading to antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Recently, intermittent antibiotic …

Humans can discriminate several million different colors and almost half a million different
tones, but the number of discriminable olfactory stimuli remains unknown. The lay and …

It is still not possible to predict whether a given molecule will have a perceived odor or what
olfactory percept it will produce. We therefore organized the crowd-sourced DREAM …

Background Although draft genomes are available for most agronomically important plant
species, the majority are incomplete, highly fragmented, and often riddled with assembly …

Odor perception is inherently subjective. Previous work has shown that odorous molecules
evoke distributed activity patterns in olfactory cortices, but how these patterns map on to …

The aim of this study was to assess the social impacts of microalgae-based systems for
wastewater treatment and bioproducts recovery by using the Social Life Cycle Assessment …

INTRODUCTION Advances in monitoring brain activity at large and fine scales have
revealed tremendous complexity in how the brain responds to, and represents, the external …
