Mapping the combinatorial coding between olfactory receptors and perception with deep learning

This paper develops a deep learning model called MolOR to predict odor percepts from odorant molecules by leveraging olfactory receptor activation profiles, showing improved prediction despite limited data overlap.

Reactivating a relaxation exercise during sleep to influence cortical hyperarousal in people with frequent nightmares - a randomized crossover trial

This study tests if relaxation-associated odor cues during sleep reduce cortical hyperarousal and nightmares in frequent nightmare sufferers, finding reduced spindle activity but no effect on beta/gamma activity or nightmares.
