摘要
Many sensory brain areas are characterized by a specific spatial organization, with neurons being ordered according to their similarity in receptive field properties. A surprising new study provides evidence that the organization of glomeruli in the olfactory bulb violates this anatomical principle, suggesting that olfaction might work by a different set of rules.
