The Nose Knows
The Science of Smell with Tyler Lorig
Tyler Lorig, professor emeritus of cognitive and behavioral science at Washington and Lee University, has spent decades studying the olfactory system and its impact on everyday life. After listening to him explain this crucial sense, you’ll never think about odor the same way again.
Recorded May 18, 2021
Aired July 12, 2021
"When I smell the world, when I smell a wine, when I smell coffee, when I smell something else…my experience of that is utterly different than yours."
~ Tyler Lorig, professor emeritus of cognitive and behavioral science
