Perturbing Chemosensation
Goethe Hall
Chair/s:
Cinzia Cecchetto
Across species, chemosensation is the result of complex interactions between the environment, the sensory organs, and the neural system. As a result even minimal changes in the external or internal milieu can perturb chemosensory experience. Here we showcase a group of young, promising scientists who are uncovering the effect of different perturbations on the chemosensation of their respective model systems.
