Highlights
Odors are powerful stimuli that can evoke emotional states, and support learning and memory
The present research topic brings together cutting edge research on diverse species and developmental stages, highlighting convergence and divergence between humans and animals to facilitate translational research. It is composed of 25 articles and encompasses 5 sections: human olfaction, odor preferences and aversions, odors and social behavior, olfaction and sniffing, and olfactory memory
HUMAN ODOR MEMORY AND PERCEPTION Pazart et al (2014) designed an fMRI study to describe the differences in brain activation in wine experts compared to control subjects
Summary
Odors are powerful stimuli that can evoke emotional states, and support learning and memory. This, when combined with the relatively conserved organization of the olfactory system in mammals, provides a powerful framework to explore how complex behaviors can be modulated by odors to produce adaptive responses, and to investigate the underlying neural networks. It is composed of 25 articles and encompasses 5 sections: human olfaction, odor preferences and aversions, odors and social behavior, olfaction and sniffing, and olfactory memory.
