This Primer explores two @PLOSBiology studies that reveal how short axon cells in the #OlfactoryBulb integrate #cholinergic input from the basal #forebrain to dynamically regulate #olfactory input. Papers: https://plos.io/4pvost3 https://plos.io/3VnO1hT Primer: https://plos.io/3Ivzcqy

#DiscriminativeLearning enhances #sensory contrast for rapid, accurate decisions, but how? This study describes a sensory- #forebrain circuit centered on #dopaminergic short axon cells in the mouse #olfactory bulb, which refines sensory input during learning @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4pvost3

Animals can use cues to initiate task preparation and amplify relevant #sensory input, but how? This study describes a circuit whereby an attentional cue triggers #cholinergic #forebrain activity, enhancing #olfactory responses (deactivated upon task-proficiency) @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3VnO1hT
