Trial-by-trial discrimination of three enantiomer pairs by neural ensembles in mammalian olfactory bulb.

abstract：:Directional hearing is crucial for animals depending on acoustic signals to locate a mate. We focused on crickets to explore the reliability of directional information forwarded to the brain by the ascending auditory interneuron AN1, which is crucial for phonotactic behavior. We presented calling song from -45° to +45...
