In vertebrates, the organization of the olfactory topographic map remains largely unknown, and understanding how OR glomeruli are organized can reveal how inputs are transformed into output signals for the olfactory cortex as well as which aspects of olfactory input are important78,79. In Drosophila...
Activity in the rat olfactory cortex is correlated with behavioral response to odor: a microPET study. Brain Struct Funct. 2017; 222(1):577-86. http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00429-016-1235-8. PMid:27194619.Litaudon, P., Bouillot, C., Zimmer, L., Costes, N. & Ravel, N. (2017)...

In the present study, we show in mice that, during ...
The mitral cell axons that exit the olfactory bulb project to multiple areas of olfactory cortex, each with distinct functions. These axons must carry the coded information that higher brain areas use to interpret odor identity and intensity. The complexity of the stimulus that is encoded and our...

A case in point is the fact that olfactory bulb efferents innervate both the olfactory cortex and several superficial amygdalar nuclei (although these do not derive from the former’s progenitor domain). This might be due to effects of shared genes guiding these fibres. Our point is that there...
What is the function of the auditory cortex? What organ system does the ear belong to? What lobe of the brain interprets auditory stimuli? What does the auditory tube connect? What is the pinna? What carries auditory information to the brain?
a signal up a nerve fibre, through the epithelium and skull bone above, to the olfactory bulbs. The signal now moves through the olfactory bulbs to the cranial nerves, extensions of the olfactory bulbs. They send the signal down the olfactory nerves to the cerebral cortex’s (olfactory area...
What lobe of the brain interprets auditory stimuli? Where is the ulnar nerve located? Where is the hippocampus located in the brain? Where in the body are peripheral nerves found? Which nerve innervates the outer ear? Where are olfactory receptors located? Is the cochlea the organ of hearing...
A24b convergent input from the olfactory and visceral- associated insula, from the vmPFC, and most likely from area 10. The dorsal and lateral parts of the VS (the ventral caudate nucleus and putamen) receive inputs from the OFC (Figures 4b and 5). These terminals also extend dorsally, ...
