The human brain modulates sniffs according to fine-grained perceptual features of odours

Sagar et al. show that human sniff behaviour is sensitive to the perceptual characteristics of the odour being detected.

Closed-loop control of theta oscillations enhances human hippocampal network connectivity

Closed-loop brain stimulation of the human hippocampal theta rhythm produces lasting enhancement of network communication. This implicates theta rhythms in human hippocampal network communication and provides a possible route to memory modulation.

Human olfactory-auditory integration requires phase synchrony between sensory cortices

Humans integrate sensory cues across multiple modalities to guide behaviour. Here, the authors report long-range phase synchronization between auditory and olfactory cortices prior to odor arrival, in a task where sound cues predict odors.

High-precision mapping reveals the structure of odor coding in the human brain

The authors used precision functional imaging and computational modeling to uncover the structure of perceptual odor coding in the human brain. Olfactory areas differ in the granularity, dimensionality and subjectivity of perceptual coding.

Stimulus-specific enhancement of fear extinction during slow-wave sleep

Sleep has been shown to strengthen various types of memory, including emotional memory. Here the authors show that in subjects who have learned to associate an odor with an electric shock, re-exposure to the odor during slow-wave sleep promotes extinction of the memory for the odor-shock association.
