Genetic basis of olfactory receptors: • Buck and Axel (1991): • All mammals have pretty much the same 1000 genes coding for Olfactory Receptors (ORs).

Dear Colleagues, The 1 st edition of Olfaction & Issues 2010 , which was held in Paris on November 4-5, was a big success. The Scientific Committee of Olfaction & Issues decided to reedit the conference in 2011 ; the pre-programme and hot topics will be published later.
Alzheimer's Disease It has been well documented that olfaction is significantly altered in Alzheimer's (AD). Nearly all studies of olfactory function in patients with AD have reported decreased smell relative to age-matched controls (see Chapter 23).
This paper outlines some well-designed studies that show an empirical link between olfaction and changes in emotional states and behavior, as well as current research which sheds light on olfactory memories and imagery.
