Guoshi Li publishes a new model of noradrenergic modulation within olfactory bulb granule cells
Noradrenergic neuromodulation is complex, imposing intricate, nonlinear transformations on several aspects of neurons’ response properties and on the computational properties of the circuits in which they are embedded. This new paper dissects the regulation of whole-cell computational properties in terms of the multiple concerted ion channel mechanisms that are directly affected by noradrenergic neuromodulation. […]

Review of olfactory computational architecture published
CPL PI Thomas Cleland recently published published a broad review of the computational principles embedded the early olfactory system. It is intended as a reasonably accessible manifesto of how we understand the olfactory epithelium, olfactory bulb, and piriform cortex to function at the neural circuit level. Cleland TA (2014) Construction […]

Review of neuromodulatory principles across taste and smell published
Together with Prof Alfredo Fontanini at SUNY Stony Brook, CPL PI Christiane Linster published a new review of common neuromodulatory principles spanning both olfaction and taste. Linster C, Fontanini A (2014) Functional neuromodulation of chemosensation in vertebrates. Curr Opin Neurobiol 29C:82-87. doi: 10.1016/j.conb.2014.05.010. Abstract: Neuromodulation can be defined as a biophysical […]

Michelle Tong, Shane Peace publish review of olfactory bulb learning and memory
CPL graduate student Michelle Tong, with contributions by CPL graduate student Shane Peace, published a review article on the mechanisms of learning and memory within olfactory bulb. Most of what is known about olfactory bulb memory mechanisms comes from one-trial learning studies in neonatal rodents (esp. the work of Carolyn […]
