DESCRIPTION:We are interested in revealing how the brain processes complex
  odorous stimuli to guide behavior. Many mammalian species rely on the sen
 se of smell for daily basic functions such as finding food\, choosing mate
 s\, and avoiding predators. In natural settings\, odors emitted by these o
 bjects will mix with odors emitted from other objects in the environment\,
  prior to reaching the nose. The brain must segment the mixed inputs to be
  able to detect and identify odors that are behaviorally important. We com
 bine behavioral\, electrophysiological\, and computational methodologies t
 o reveal the underlying neuronal processes that support the brain’s abil
 ity to segment mixtures. We develop behavioral tasks for rodents\, that mi
 mic the richness of natural settings\, while allowing quantitative analysi
 s\, and combine these with dense electrophysiological recordings.\nFor mor
