No matter how many decades pass, some scent memories still hit me like a bus when I encounter them again: The smell of ...

The link between air pollution and cognition is clear, with evidence showing pollutants affect brain development and increase neurodegenerative disease risk.

In this important study, the authors use computational modeling to explore how rapid learning can be reconciled with the accumulation of stable memories in the olfactory bulb, where adult neurogenesis ...

A recent study published in The Journal of Neuroscience has found evidence for a link between breathing patterns and brain ...

or olfactory receptor neurons. Further investigation is necessary to elucidate the precise processes that link air pollution exposure to mental health outcomes.” Depression is a mood disorder ...

It tends to grow near bluebells who’s leaves are toxic – a quick rub and the pungent garlic smell will confirm for you. Wild garlic might smell and taste like bulb garlic but it’s a completely ...

The researchers developed an optical sensor to target three brain areas involved in canine scent discrimination: the amygdala ...

Cover with compost and add a layer of grit to improve drainage. Allow leaves of bulbous irises to die back naturally so the bulb can build up energy for next year. Ensure iris bulbs don’t get too wet, ...

Beyond aesthetics, the design of our workplaces directly impacts our health. Studies reveal a clear link between poor light quality and limited access to natural views with increased sick leave ...

This string of lights comes disassembled (as with every model we tested, each bulb needs to be screwed in by hand), and it has three spare bulbs, in case some break or burn out. You can also buy ...

This makes the canine nose more than 10, 000 times better at detecting scents than we are. They can detect minute quantities of scent. For example, forensic detection dogs can detect 0.01 microlitres ...
