DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1006751
Abstract: Elucidating how appropriate neurite patterns are generated in neurons of the olfactory system is crucial for comprehending the construction of the olfactory map. In the Drosophila olfactory system, projection neurons (PNs), primarily derived from four… read more here.

DOI: 10.1523/eneuro.0109-22.2022
Abstract: Abstract Inhibitory interneurons are important for neuronal circuit function. They regulate sensory inputs and enhance output discriminability (Olsen and Wilson, 2008; Root et al., 2008; Olsen et al., 2010). Often, the identities of interneurons can… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.1004124
Abstract: In nature, olfactory signals are delivered to detectors—for example, insect antennae—by means of turbulent air, which exerts concurrent chemical and mechanical stimulation on the detectors. The antennal lobe, which is traditionally viewed as a chemosensory… read more here.
