Young adult-born neurons improve odor coding by mitral cells

Shani-Narkiss et al. established an experimental system to test the functional role of adult born neurons (ABNs) on Mitral Cell (MC) coding. Silencing ABNs, unexpectedly, quenched MC odor responses. A computational model provides a mechanistic explanation to the functional role of adult-born neurons...
