Construction of functional neuronal circuitry in the olfactory bulb

- Glomerulus is a functional unit for odor information processing.
- Lateral inhibition is mediated by short axon cells and granule cells.
- Cortical projection is topographic in some area but non-topographic in other areas.
- Odor information is both spatially and temporally represented in the olfactory bulb.
- Interneurons may underlie plasticity of the olfactory bulb.
