Vet Med For Idiots By Idiots

Welcome back to another riveting episode where the boys inevitably get distracted and go on tangents. However, along the way, the Idiots talk noses. You know, snoots, boopers, snozzes, sniffers, cold wet presses...the list goes on. Learn about some of the super amazing functions of the nose, why they're better with theirs than you'll ever be with yours, and imagine being able to see the world by scent. Also, there were supposed to be some links for references, but you'll have to google that yourself because Cory lost the list and doesn't feel like hearing Kent complain. Again. So, the research is from blubity bloo. Trust me, that will make sense in the context of the episode. Also, if you listen closely, you can hear the cameo of multiple birds on the window bird feeder adding their two cents to the conversation. No one asked, though. Very pushy, insistant, really.

Sydney-based artist Nadia Vitlin works with olfaction — our sense of smell — infusing her artwork, whether it be clay or paint, to create bespoke pieces that mimic the transportive power of scent: one of the most evocative, deeply personal and memory-laden senses humans possess. She experiments in the fourth dimension, and it all began with leaves from the garden and spices you might find in your kitchen. Vitlin's background is in science, a helpful start when you consider that scent is carried in molecules, which bypass our brain's central operating system to work on a different region wired to feel emotions.

In this episode, Frauke sits down with Professor Andrew Kettler to discuss the role smell played in the Atlantic slave trade of the 19th century. Prof. Kettler begins by defining olfactory racism, and then explains the ‘Anglo Atlantic Nose' as the English departed for the New World. He defines important olfactory-focused concepts like “embodied knowledge”, ”miasma theory”, “false consciousness”, and “emotions of disgust.” Prof. Kettler explains the role of smell during the Middle Passage, the horrific “othering” of the African slave, the role dogs played olfactively, how the Civil War intensifies olfactory racism and makes it worse afterwards, and most importantly the role Capitalism plays in olfactory racism. He also gives the perspective of the ‘African Nose' revealing how important smells were to the African resistance. Prof. Kettler then concludes by sharing what he knows to be true after writing this book, tells how we can apply the learnings to our lives today, and reveals what he's working on next. This conversation will definitely leave an impression and will give you new perspectives that, as a society, we so desperately need.  Learn more about Professor Andrew Kettler and his work.

Did you know that humans have the ability to detect over 1 trillion odors, yet our individual reactions to them can vary dramatically? Migraine sufferers can be more sensitive to things in their environment, such as light, sound, and even odors. This is called Osmophobia, or a heightened sensitivity or aversion to certain smells. While this is rare on its own, it is quite common in those who suffer from migraines. In this episode, we're unraveling the mystery of olfactory overload and diving into the connection between odors, fragrance, and head pain.    In this episode, you'll hear: What Osmophobia (Ozmo) is and why it can trigger migraines.  Where the olfactory bulb comes into play with osmophobia.  Odor sensitivity, phantom smells, and the prodrome phase of a migraine.  Stats on those who experience a heightened sense of smell during migraine episodes.  Common odors that trigger migraines.  How emotions and our physical sinuses play a role in how we react to certain smells.

Memory loss is often cited as one of the most worrying aspects of growing older. But what if the section of the brain that's responsible for memory could be stimulated by simply sniffing a few pleasant odors? There is extensive research pointing to a relationship between exposure to different smells and memory improvement.  A clinical trial led by Prof. Michael Leon at the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior, University of California, Irvine, suggests the loss of olfaction can cause the memory parts of the brain to deteriorate, while adding more smell experiences can improve memory. The research also explores the use of environmental enrichment, as it's known, to treat neurological disorders like autism. Prof. Leon's team used diffusers to release various essential oils while participants slept, leading to improved memory and sleep. The results suggest that exposure to smells like orange and lemon significantly improves memory in older adults, with some experiencing a 226% increase.Researchers have developed a device called Memory Air that automatically emits odors while individuals sleep, providing the brain with the necessary stimulation. In this interview we discuss the evidence and explore why such an approach could be valuable not only in improving memory but overall well-being.▸ Read a transcript of this conversation + additional show-notes DISCOUNTSThis site includes affiliate links from which we derive a small commission, if you click on the product links and use the code LLAMA at checkout.  This helps support the channel and allows us to continue sharing conversations like this.

Psychophysics and scent. What's that all about? You're reading this text, taking in visual information while simultaneously breathing in hundreds of scent molecules. How much of your attention is on those various aromatic molecules? How would you describe those scent molecules? Could those scents be considered art? Meet NYC-based academic and gallerist Andreas Keller who lives, breathes and contemplates these olfactory-based topics on a daily basis! With PhDs in neuroscience and philosophy and specializing in olfactory perception and psychophysics, Andreas revels in the messiness of scent so much that he opened one of the only Olfactory Art galleries in the world: Olfactory Art Keller. A vanguard of the olfactory art movement, Andreas explores “the scent problem”—how smell is not an analytical sense like the visual one, and how paradigms of perceiving, talking about and analyzing scent and olfaction are lacking in our culture. If scent perception isn't analytical, what is it? Settle into the episode with some of your favorite (or least favorite!) aromas to find out!

Exploring our psychophysical, multivalent relationship with scent: memory formation & retrieval, chemo-neuroendocrine impact, mind-body-spirit connection. Appreciating the ephemerally degradable qualities of scent molecules. Creating a scent perception paradigm: talking about, describing and analyzing scent in new ways outside of the default visual paradigm. Embracing the nature of scent and its perception as a lived, messy, evanescent experience that is intertwined with the malleability of memory.

What if the path to delaying the onset of dementia symptoms begins at the nose? It is a doorway that the research of Dr. Michael Leon opened with a 2023 study on the power of olfaction enrichment to influence memory function and brain health. The findings drew wide acclaim and interest when his results found that stimulation of our sense of smell with essential oils had a profound impact on memory, cognition, and language recall. Our conversation with Leon on STEM-Talk Episode 164 is available now wherever you enjoy podcasts. Leon's long research career has focused on the influence of environmental enrichment on neurological function, disease, and disorders. He has studied the benefits of sensory-motor stimulation for children with autism spectrum disorder, for the treatment of anorexia and for those with dementia and neurological conditions. He is a professor emeritus in the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior at the University of California Irvine, where his Leon Lab has focused on studying the benefits of increased sensory-motor activity in children with autism spectrum disorder. The work that the Leon Lab is doing is fascinating, and the applications this olfaction stimulation study are potentially important and wide-reaching. Overview: [00:02:33] Dawn starts the interview by asking Michael how he got interested in science. [00:003:59] Dawn asks how Michael got involved in studying olfaction. [00:04:36] Dawn asks about Michael's research on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), which resulted in a series of studies from 2013, 2015, and 2016. [00:08:11] Dawn asks how Michael took the principles of environmental enrichment from his work on autism and applied them to his aging research, which began in 2018. [00:09:28] Ken asks Michael about his 2023 study titled “Olfactory enrichment using an odorant diffuser improves memory and modifies the uncinate fasciculus in older adults.” [00:11:25] Ken asks Michael why he chose the specific seven odors that he used in the study. [00:12:24] Ken poses a listener question about whether or not a CPAP machine, which many older Americans use, would complicate Michael's olfactory enrichment protocol, or if it is possible that the CPAP machine and the protocol can be used together. [00:13:35] Dawn asks Michael what the selection and recruitment process was like for this study. [00:14:48] Ken asks, in light of Michael's research on the connection between memory and olfaction, what the potential consequences might be for people who reported loss or diminishing sense of smell following a COVID-19 infection. [00:16:51] Ken asks if any of the olfactory remediation kits have shown promise in restoring lost olfaction following COVID-19. [00:17:32] Ken asks what the mechanism is behind the loss of olfaction following menopause. [00:19:43] Dawn asks Michael how his olfactory enrichment as a memory intervention compares to other memory interventions like dancing, music and audio books. [00:20:22] Ken asks Michael what the limitations of the study were, as well as what kind of follow up he is planning. [00:23:14] Ken asks if there is any promise in applying Michael's olfactory therapy to mild TBI. [00:24:10] Dawn asks Michael to describe how the brain processes information while asleep versus while awake, and if this influenced his study. [00:25:53] Dawn mentions that the participants of Michael's 2023 study were healthy, with no signs of dementia. She then asks Michael if he can speak to the potential use of olfactory enrichment for adults living with a dementia diagnosis. [00:26:41] Ken asks if this olfactory enrichment approach is efficacious for Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. [00:27:10] Ken mentions the difficulty in treating Alzheimer's pharmacologically due to the varied causes of the disease among individuals. [00:29:10] Ken asks Michael if there are environmental protocols other than olfactory enrichment that s...

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 26, 2023 is: olfactory • ahl-FAK-tuh-ree • adjective Olfactory describes things that have to do with the sense of smell. // Few can deny the olfactory pleasures of fresh-baked bread, sea breezes, and apple blossoms—all scents with the power to trigger intense nostalgia. See the entry > Examples: “Dogs are uniquely positioned to collect data that helps humans track and preserve endangered species—and find invasive species—because of their exceptional sense of smell. Dogs have millions more olfactory receptor cells than humans.” — Sydney Page, The Washington Post, 9 Sept. 2023 Did you know? No, olfactory is not a noun meaning “a place that makes scents”; for that, you want perfumery, which makes more sense. Olfactory is instead an adjective used to describe things related to one's sense of smell, that which lets you detect fruit with your snoot, a leek with your beak, Shiraz with your schnozz. Olfactory comes from the Latin word olfacere (“to smell”), which in turn combines two verbs, olēre (“to give off a smell”) and facere (“to do”). It often appears in scientific contexts (as in “olfactory nerves,” the nerves that pass from the nose to the brain and contain the receptors that make smelling possible), but it is occasionally used in less technical writing and speech. The pleasant smell of hot mulled cider, for example, might be considered an “olfactory delight,” depending on the spices and your own sensibilities, of course. As they say, the nose knows.

We all have become so aware of the importance of smell the past few years. Especially during the pandemic when many people lost it. On this week's episode, Hana Tisserand, COO, cofounder and director of operations and communications of the Tisserand Institute joins The Essential Oil Revolution. This week, Hana offers her science based and practical wisdom on essential oils; specifically surrounding that of olfactory retraining. What You Will Learn: 1. The history of the Tisserand Institute and why it transformed from in-person integrative practitioner training in aromatherapy to online holistic training in essential oils.  2. How Hana's unique background influenced her to be an expert in essential oils. This includes her growing up in the Czech Republic, where integrative, conventional, and natural approaches co-exist in pharmacies side-by-side and what led her to meet Robert Tisserand. 3. The importance of smell as a chemosensory experience. For example, it alerts us to danger, influences our taste, stimulates memory, and determines how we interact with the world on a sensory and hedonistic basis.  4. What component found in essential oils are the most communicated “language” in the world. These molecules are shared by every creature on the planet, from single-celled organisms to mammals.  5. How essential oils constituents can still impact our biochemistry and physiology, even if you lose your ability to smell. 6. The concept of olfactory training and how it works. 7. Why specific essential oils or the constituents found within them, phenylethanol (rosy), 1,8-cineole (eucalyptus), citronellal (lemony) and eugenol (clove), are used in smell training. We also discuss if essential oils are more powerful than the single constituents based on their multiple effects. 6. Why olfactory training works the best for those with infections and an intact, functioning trigeminal nerve. 7. Why the aim of the Tisserand Institute is to provide education and information that is accurate, safe, and accessible to all essential oil users vs. preparing one for aromatherapist certification. 8. One thing Hana does for self-care daily. (Hint it has to do with her love of aromas and hot beverages.) 9. The one things Hana feels we should ditch and replace with instead to be healthier.  10. Hana's favorite essential oils hack: Using cotton balls/cotton pads for inhalation. It is super easy, quick, portable, safe, and accessible. Bio of Hana Tisserand Hana Tisserand is the COO, cofounder, and director of operations and communications of the Tisserand Institute, the global leader in online evidence-based essential oils education. Hana has been working at the Tisserand Institute since 2014 and she oversees the creation of its course content and curricula, moderates live webinars, supervises the staff, and teaches her own introductory classes. She also writes the Tisserand Institute newsletters, her own blog posts, and detailed scientific articles.  Hana has a unique perspective on how information about essential oils is sourced, processed, and communicated, stemming from her past experiences. She is a sought-after presenter for various prestigious aromatherapy events, including the Alliance of International Aromatherapists and NAHA (National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy). Being raised in a family of doctors and nurses gave Hana an underlying interest in the workings of the human body, which previously manifested in her specialization in medical translation. Her love for science, essential oils, perfumes, and fragrances runs deep, as does her appreciation for fine teas and coffee.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of BackTable ENT, Dr. Zara Patel, director of endoscopic skull base surgery and professor of otolaryngology at Stanford, joins Dr. Shah to discuss the physiology behind olfactory dysfunction and evidence-based cutting-edge therapies. --- SHOW NOTES First, Dr. Shah and Dr. Patel outline different patterns of olfactory dysfunction and their etiologies. Damage to the olfactory system can result from inflammation, trauma, or neurodegeneration affecting olfactory bulb neurons. However, smell-based symptoms are common in migraine and seizure auras, so taking a thorough medical history is important in all patients. Also, they review “red-flag” medications contributing to smell loss. Next, Dr. Shah asks Dr. Patel about the workup of patients with olfactory disturbance. Dr. Patel recommends nasal endoscopy for all patients with olfactory complaints. Unless another medical issue is suggested from the patient's history, Dr. Patel does not routinely order labs for smell disturbance. The role of imaging is addressed, including use of MRIs for prognostication. The doctors then cover evidence-based management of olfactory dysfunction. In cases where inflammation causes olfactory disturbance – such as post-viral etiologies – steroid therapy can help restore smell. To have effect, the drug must reach the olfactory cleft, so Dr. Patel prefers nasal rinses with budesonide over intranasal or oral steroids. Then, Dr. Shah shares her experience treating patients with olfactory training. Dr. Patel explains the neural basis of training and instructs clinicians on how to counsel patients for best outcomes. Finally, Dr. Patel shares her expertise on hot topics in olfactory research, like the science behind platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for smell loss. She also reviews situations in which dietary supplements can improve symptoms. They end the episode with insights regarding equitable care of patients with smell-based symptoms. --- RESOURCES Dr. Patel's Stanford profile https://profiles.stanford.edu/zara-patel JAMA Patient Handout on Olfactory Training: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaotolaryngology/article-abstract/2782042 International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Olfaction https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/alr.22929
