摘要：

The Datta lab studies how information from the outside world is detected, encoded in the brain, and transformed into meaningful behavioral outputs. We address this fundamental problem by characterizing the olfactory system, the sensory system used by most animals to interact with their environment. Here we discuss recent work characterizing neural circuits in the olfactory system, and the development of new technologies to understand how these neural circuits might impact behavior.
