Our new paper on olfactory plasticity has just been published in Cortex 🧵 Some people with a healthy sense of smell are unable to perceive a few selected odors, a phenomenon known as specific anosmia. We checked if people can gain some perception of these smells via training.

I genuinely enjoyed The Forgotten Sense by Jonas Olofsson. It covers multiple areas of smell research in an engaging way, making it a great read for both experts and those just discovering the field. Congratulations @jokriolo.bsky.social!

Can babies tell good from evil? With 1000+ babies, we tried replicating classic moral psychology finding that infants prefer helpful characters. But... babies chose randomly between helper/hinderer puppets:/ Props to KelseyLucca, Francis Yuen & @jkileyhamlin.bsky.social for leading the project!
