How can some smells seem stronger than others despite equivalent odor concentrations? @nordenneuro @odorjohan &co show that coordinated neural activity between #OlfactoryBulb & #PiriformCortex tracks how intensely an odor is perceived (rather than concentration) @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4fQxXR5

“Mechanisms and functions of respiration-driven gamma oscillations in the primary olfactory cortex”
González et al. 2023 https://elifesciences.org/articles/83044“respiration drives gamma oscillations in the piriform cortex, which correlate with local feedback inhibition… [oscillations] locally segregate neuronal assemblies through a winner-take-all computation leading to sparse odor coding during each breathing cycle.”
