After all, there are lots of reasons people might share an odor. In one notorious dead end, researchers were convinced there was a smell linked to schizophrenia, and a particular compound called TMHA —said to smell like a goat—was identified and described in the prestigious journal Science.
There was hope this chemical might even be the cause of schizophrenia, which would open up new avenues for treatment. Milne smell all our T-shirts. First, the team is working to chemically identify the molecules involved, which is harder than it looks on CSI. Of the thousands of known volatile compounds, many are not well characterized or data on them exists only within the fragrance industry.
Together, the molecules could create a diagnostic fingerprint for the disease. That brings us back to the question of what you and I can actually smell. While dogs have the most lauded sense of smell and have been tapped to sniff out cancer , research suggests that humans are just as good at detecting many odors.
There are hints, though, that we may be decent illness detectors if we pay attention to the task. All rights reserved. Share Tweet Email. Read This Next Wild parakeets have taken a liking to London.

India bets its energy future on solar—in ways both small and big. Environment Planet Possible India bets its energy future on solar—in ways both small and big Grassroots efforts are bringing solar panels to rural villages without electricity, while massive solar arrays are being built across the country. Epic floods leave South Sudanese to face disease and starvation. We believe that accounts for the second stage, where the olfactory neurons are damaged. Recovery of smell is much slower because the olfactory neurons need time to regenerate from the supply of stem cells within the lining of the nose.
For many parosmics, for instance, the smell of coffee is often described as burnt, chemical, dirty and reminiscent of sewage. Olfaction has been called the Cinderella of the senses because of its neglect by scientific research. But it has come to the forefront in this pandemic. The silver lining is that we will learn a lot about how viruses are involved in smell loss from this. But what hope is there for people with a loss of smell now? The good news is that the olfactory neurons can regenerate.
