Computational modeling suggests distinct, location-specific function of norepinephrine in olfactory bulb and piriform cortex

Noradrenergic modulation from the locus coerulus is often associated with the regulation of sensory signal-to-noise ratio. In the olfactory system, noradrenergic modulation affects both bulbar and cortical processing, and has been show to modulate the detection of low concentration stimuli. We here...
