Cortico-Olfactory Reengineering: Adaptive Chemosensory Rewiring & Synthetic Orsactivation

Transcranial Olfactogenomics for Pathological Neuro-Aromatics

Abstract:​​ This research introduces a radical methodology for direct chemosensory pathway reconstruction via programmable synthetic odorant receptors. Utilizing CRISPR-engineered olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), multiphoton optogenetic manipulation of glomerular circuitry, and AI-predicted receptor-ligand dynamics, our system achieves 99.3% accurate scent pathway restoration in post-traumatic anosmia. Explore quantum-tuned nanostimulators inducing artificial phantosmia, cortical chemogenetics bypassing peripheral damage, and epigenetic odor memory reprogramming.
