Respiration‐triggered olfactory stimulation reduces obstructive sleep apnea severity: A prospective pilot study Open
Summary Obstructive sleep apnea is a prevalent sleep‐disordered breathing condition characterized by repetitive reduction in breathing during sleep. The current care standard for obstructive sleep apnea is continuous positive air pressure …

Neural patterns differentiate traumatic from sad autobiographical memories in PTSD Open
For people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), recalling traumatic memories often displays as intrusions that differ profoundly from processing of ‘regular’ negative memories. These mnemonic features fueled theories speculating a q…

A thalamic circuit represents dose-like responses induced by nicotine-related beliefs in human smokers Open
Could non-pharmacological constructs, such as beliefs, impact brain activities in a dose-dependent manner as drugs do? While beliefs shape many aspects of our behavior and wellbeing, the precise mapping between subjective beliefs and neura…

Humans use forward thinking to exploit social controllability Open
The controllability of our social environment has a profound impact on our behavior and mental health. Nevertheless, neurocomputational mechanisms underlying social controllability remain elusive. Here, 48 participants performed a task whe…

Altruism in a Time of Crisis: Dissociable Social Valuation and Perception during COVID-19 in the United States Open
Human prosocial behaviors are constantly shaped by the push-and-pull between societal need for cooperation and one’s natural tendency to self-prioritize. Nevertheless, it remains elusive how our valuation and perceptual systems might contr…

Containment of COVID-19: Simulating the impact of different policies and testing capacities for contact tracing, testing, and isolation Open
Efficient contact tracing and testing are fundamental tools to contain the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. We used multi-agent simulations to estimate the daily testing capacity required to find and isolate a number of infected agents sufficie…

A Novel Olfactory Self-Test Effectively Screens for COVID-19 Open
Key to curtailing the COVID-19 pandemic are wide-scale testing strategies 1,2 . An ideal test is one that would not rely on transporting, distributing, and collecting physical specimens. Given the olfactory impairment associated with COVID…

Unexplained repeated pregnancy loss is associated with altered perceptual and brain responses to men’s body-odor Open
Mammalian olfaction and reproduction are tightly linked, a link less explored in humans. Here, we asked whether human unexplained repeated pregnancy loss (uRPL) is associated with altered olfaction, and particularly altered olfactory respo…

Corrigendum to: Relationship Between Odor Intensity Estimates and COVID-19 Prevalence Prediction in a Swedish Population Open
This is a correction notice for article bjz034 (DOI: https://doi. org/10.1093/chemse/bjaa034), published on 22 May 2020. Due to an error in the script used to create subsections of Figure 1, there was both a shift in the intensity data and…

Containment of future waves of COVID-19: simulating the impact of different policies and testing capacities for contact tracing, testing, and isolation Open
We used multi-agent simulations to estimate the testing capacity required to find and isolate a number of infections sufficient to break the chain of transmission of SARS-CoV-2. Depending on the mitigation policies in place, a daily capaci…

The contribution of temporal coding to odor coding and odor perception in humans Open
Whether neurons encode information through their spike rates, their activity times or both is an ongoing debate in systems neuroscience. Here, we tested whether humans can discriminate between a pair of temporal odor mixtures (TOMs) compos…
