Researchers have investigated the neuronal mechanisms of human odor perception for the first time.
Individual nerve cells in the brain recognize odors and react specifically to the smell, the image and the written word of an object, for example a banana.
The results of this study close a long-standing knowledge gap between animal and human odor research.
The study was funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) as part of the iBehave project.
The study is published in Nature , 2024 .
