The paper shows that third-order neurons in Drosophila reformat odor information into valence and dynamics codes by discarding identity information and responding transiently to odor onset.

The paper shows how subcellular synaptic plasticity in Drosophila olfactory projection neurons creates two parallel pathways for encoding temporal odor contrast and prediction error, leading to distinct behavioral responses.

The paper shows that expanded sensory neuron populations in Drosophila enhance odor tracking without increasing projection neuron sensitivity.

The paper links connectomic features to synaptic strengths and subcellular computations in Drosophila olfactory neurons.

The paper identifies an ammonium transporter, Amt, as a non-canonical olfactory receptor for ammonia in insects, showing it mediates neuronal and behavioral responses.
