Sensory biology: Olfactory crosstalk reshapes odor coding

New research uncovers a novel form of crosstalk between olfactory pathways in the antennal lobe, the first olfactory center of the fly brain. This crosstalk reshapes odor coding and may explain how carbon dioxide can elicit either attraction or aversion.
