We Can’t Yet Replicate Animal Olfaction Synthetically as a Sensing and Classification Modality

Chemistry
We currently lack a comprehensive model explaining how biological systems decode and classify chemical signals through olfaction. Understanding this process is critical for applications ranging from flavor science to disease diagnostics to understanding and harnessing animal communication.
