«We've shown for the very first time that BES may provide insight into preventing growth factor deprivation - triggered apoptosis in olfactory bulb neural precursor cells (OB NPCs),» said Yubo Fan, professor of Biological Science and Medical Engineering at Beihang and senior author.

In fact, when an olfactory sensory neuron expressing a particular receptor gene dies and a new neuron expressing that same gene matures, the new neuron's axons plug in to the same group of olfactory bulb neurons that its predecessor did. (scientificamerican.com)
SpatialDE automatically identifies sub-structures (middle), and links these to genes that depend on spatial location (right) in mouse olfactory bulb data from Stahl et al 2016. (sangerinstitute.blog)
