Abstract

Developmental neural activity organizes sensory system development. New evidence in mice suggests postnatal olfactory bulb activity also modulates development of the structure and function of hippocampal-cortical circuits. Reducing cell-specific olfactory bulb output during an infant sensitive period impairs later-life cognition.
