The authors recorded from granule cells (GCs) in the main olfactory bulb of anesthetized and awake mice. Odor responses in GCs of awake mice were more robust and broadly tuned than under anesthesia. Unlike in anesthetized mice, odor coding in GCs in awake mice was not coupled to the respiratory cycle.
