Across animal phyla, odor information is represented in the first olfactory processing center by combinatorial activation of discrete glomeruli. To examine how this organization of olfactory processin...

Animals use multiple sensory systems to identify signs of danger, including dead conspecifics. Fish can identify decaying conspecifics from chemosensory cues, which prompt a long-lasting avoidance; th...

Skin exhibits a remarkable capacity for regeneration, which requires the coordinated reconstitution of diverse cell types and structures. Merkel cells are mechanosensory cells that detect gentle touch...
