Imaging and coding in the olfactory system.
Functional imaging methods permit analysis of neuronal systems in which activity is broadly distributed in time and space. In the olfactory system the dimensions that describe odorant stimuli in "odorant space" are still poorly defined. One way of trying to characterize the attributes of this space is to examine the ways in which its dimensions are encoded by the neurons and circuits making up ...
متن کاملInsect olfactory coding and memory at multiple timescales.
Insects can learn, allowing them great flexibility for locating seasonal food sources and avoiding wily predators. Because insects are relatively simple and accessible to manipulation, they provide good experimental preparations for exploring mechanisms underlying sensory coding and memory. Here we review how the intertwining of memory with computation enables the coding, decoding, and storage ...
متن کاملOlfactory Coding: Tagging and Tuning Odor-Activated Synapses for Memory
A recent study in the locust olfactory system shows how neuromodulators can alter the rules of synaptic plasticity to form associative memories through the use of 'tagged' synapses.
متن کاملRedundancy of olfactory sensory pathways for odor-aversion memory in the terrestrial slug Limax valentianus.
Terrestrial slugs have the ability to learn and remember a food odor paired with an aversive stimulus. Olfaction in slugs involves the tips of two pairs of tentacles, the superior and the inferior tentacles. Sensory nerves in both pairs of the tentacles transmit olfactory information to the structure in the CNS, the procerebrum where learning and memory formation occur. We investigated the role...
