Olfactory perception: receptors, cells, and circuits.
Remarkable advances in our understanding of olfactory perception have been made in recent years, including the discovery of new mechanisms of olfactory signaling and new principles of olfactory processing. Here, we discuss the insight that has been gained into the receptors, cells, and circuits that underlie the sense of smell.
