Cracking the Olfactory Code (Olfactory)
Preliminary Proposal Deadline Date: May 1, 2015
Due date for preliminary proposal
Program Guidelines: NSF 15-547
Olfaction is an evolutionarily primitive sense critical for survival across
the animal kingdom – finding food, searching for mates, or avoiding
predation all depend on detecting, identifying, and discriminating odors.
Although early steps in olfactory processing are relatively well
understood, significant gaps remain in our understanding of higherorder odor representations and processing during on-going behavior.
Deciphering the operating principles of olfaction requires the
development of ...
