on the origins of smell I am old enough to remember when olfactory receptors were discovered, and have written about them a fair few times since then (heck I even have a tag for that). In the new developments in the smell field last year I really liked the way that a clever combination of old and new may provide a breakthrough. Smell has become ridiculously complex and fragile during the evolution of tetrapods (ie since our ancestors stopped being fish and started to grow legs to walk around on land and sniff the air). Now researchers have gone back to reconstruct the simpler and more robust olfactory receptors of early tetrapods, and based on structures obtained for these, it may become easier to predict (eg with alpha fold) and study structures of the receptors we have now. It's all explained with a bit more detail in my latest feature which is out now: **Chemical communicators** Current Biology Volume 35, Issue 2, 20 January 2025, Pages R45-R47 FREE access to full text and PDF download See also my Mastodon thread where I highlighted all CB features of 2025. The thread for 2024 is here . In Western culture, the sense of smell is much less valued than vision and hearing. (Photo: vikjam/Flickr (CC BY 2.0).)

Last year's feature on the #evolution of our sense of #smell is now in the #openArchives: proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2025/01/on-origins-of-sm...

When I wear my new glasses they smell strongly of plastic and I didn't like it-- at first. But yesterday I realized I recognize it as also being "new action figure smell" and now I like it.
