A Prism Method for Optical Glomerular Mapping of the Medial Olfactory Bulb in Mice

The processing of odor input in the brain begins in the olfactory bulb (OB), where odor information is represented by combinations of active glomeruli. Each glomerulus is associated with a specific odorant receptor type, of which there are ~1,000 in mice; thus different odors activate different subs...
