Learning to Smell: Olfactory Perception from Neurobiology to Behavior

Wed, 30 Jul 2025
Explores a novel theoretical view of olfaction that emphasizes the critical role of experience and cortical plasticity in shaping how odors are perceived. The authors argue against the traditional "receptor-centric" model, positing instead that odor perception is a synthetic construct influenced by physicochemical properties, memory, and biological constraints. This comprehensive overview examines olfactory system function in humans and animals, comparing it to visual object recognition and highlighting how learned odor objects become multifaceted, encompassing meaning and even multimodal components. The text also discusses historical perspectives on olfaction, explores detection, intensity, and quality of odors, and details the neural substrates and memory processes involved in smell.

Knowledge Games: How Playing Games Can Solve Problems, Create Insight, and Make Change

Mon, 28 Jul 2025
Explores the concept and application of "knowledge games." These are defined as games designed not merely for entertainment, but with the primary goal of generating new understandings, solving real-world problems, and offering fresh perspectives on humanity. The author distinguishes knowledge games from "gamification," where game elements are applied to non-game contexts, emphasizing that in knowledge games, the problem is the game. The text examines how these games can leverage collective human intelligence, facilitate problem-solving, and foster social interaction and collaboration among players who might initially be motivated by an intrinsic interest in science or the game itself. Furthermore, it addresses ethical considerations surrounding data collection, privacy, and the evolving relationship between amateur participants and professional scientists in this new landscape of knowledge production.
