| summary | Although less studied than other senses, olfaction plays a central role for certain professions such as
perfumers, flavorists or sommeliers. These experts demonstrate enhanced olfactory knowledge and
performance, result of an enhanced perceptual learning and experience. Such training has been shown to
induce both perceptual and neural changes, demonstrating the high plasticity of the olfactory system.
However, the effects of such training on memory remain poorly understood, especially outside the olfactory
domain. In the NeurONA project, we will compare odor and visual recognition performance of Isipca
apprentice perfumers and untrained students before and after a year of olfactory training to determine how
expertise can influence odor and visual recognition. I will present our main findings and the potential
limitations of the study. |
