This study identifies Tex15 as a gene required for maintaining diversity in odorant receptor expression in mouse olfactory neurons.

The paper shows that olfactory receptor expression in the nose follows a spatial code controlled by a retinoic acid gradient, aligning epithelial and brain maps.

This study identifies molecular signatures of ancestral cell types in mammalian olfactory cortex neurons by comparing transcriptomes across species and cortical layers.

The paper uses 3D spatial transcriptomics to map the molecular organization of the mouse olfactory bulb, revealing symmetric glomeruli and asymmetric deeper layer cells.

The paper investigates persistent smell loss after COVID-19 by analyzing olfactory epithelium inflammation and gene expression in patients with post-acute sequelae.

The paper identifies non-neuronal cell types in the olfactory system expressing SARS-CoV-2 entry genes, suggesting indirect mechanisms for COVID-19-associated anosmia.

This paper introduces a time warping framework to uncover precise spike-time patterns in neural recordings across different systems, revealing both expected and unexpected firing dynamics.
