When we (Tanabe et al., 1974) began our studies on the brain mechanism of olfaction in our laboratory, we found that an olfactory projection area in the neocortex had not been studied physiologically and had been entirely unknown until Allen’s pioneer work (1940, 1943) appeared. In ablation and electrophysiological experiments on dogs, Allen found that the ventrolateral portion of the frontal lobe is related to olfaction, but his study was fragmentary. We thus faced many important but unresolved problems regarding olfactory nervous pathways. |
