A spiking network model that examines the transformation of odor information from olfactory bulb to piriform cortex demonstrates how intrinsic cortical circuitry preserves representations of odor identity across odorant concentrations.

Dendrites of pyramidal neurons in piriform cortex can initiate NMDA spikes, which may serve to amplify odor responses, and provide combination selectivity underlying 'discontinuous' odor receptive fields in these neurons.

Delay-period activity of anterior piriform cortex is important for working memory tasks requiring active maintenance and encodes the maintained information.

Different features of an odor can be represented in mouse olfactory cortex using the particular ensemble of responsive neurons to represent odor identity and the synchrony of the ensemble activity to represent odor intensity.

Pharmacological fMRI reveals that associative connections contribute to odor categorization by supporting discrimination and generalization at different stages of the human olfactory system.

Each stage of the scientific life cycle stands to benefit from the introduction of data science techniques.

An analysis of review, promotion and tenure documents from 129 US and Canadian universities suggests institutions could better fulfill their public missions by changing how they incentivize the public dimensions of faculty work.

Artificially activating certain neurons in the cortex can make a tetraplegic patient feel naturalistic sensations of skin pressure and arm movement.

The brain stores information that is needed immediately and information that will be needed in the future in different ways.
