▼a Stimulus variability presents a computational challenge for sensory systems. In the olfactory system, shifts in odor concentration represent a significant source of variability. This thesis examines a potential computational principle underlying |

▼a Primacy coding represents odor identity in only a small number of maximally sensitive sensors for a given odor. By isolating these primary features from the overall population of responses, it has been proposed that a large degree of invariance |

▼a We hypothesize that primary set responds with the lowest latency, and that the olfactory system uses time to recover this invariant set from the overall pattern of activity. By using solely a small number of earliest responses in a sniff, the sy |

▼a To test whether early odor-evoked activity is sufficient for odor identification, we employed a novel behavioral paradigm named "optogenetic masking". Mice were trained to discriminate between odors across a range of concentrations. On a small n |

▼a To study whether early odor-evoked neural activity is actually a good source of odor identity information, we employed extracellular electrophysiology and advanced olfactometery. In recording from putative mitral/tufted cells in the olfactory bu |

▼a Finally, I undertook an exploratory project to determine the transfer function of the olfactory bulb using patterned optogenetic stimulation. Using this technology, we hope to establish an input-output model of the OB that will allow us to evalu |
