Making sense of smell

Venue: Main Lecture Hall at 16:30

"The ability of organisms to sense their chemical environment is nearly
as old as life itself. From viruses to metazoans, chemosending is key to
essential behaviors such as nutrient scavenging, mating, communication
and sociality. i will discuss two prominent examples of chemical
sensing, chemotaxis in bacteria and olfactory search in insects, with
particular emphasis on how their behavioral response is linked to their
perception of the chemical landscape."
