Mystery Spice
The tantalizing scents of spices come from special chemicals that interact in specific ways with neuron receptors in our nose. Each spice has a unique blend of various scent and taste specific molecules. Can your neurons identify which scent chemicals belong to which spice?
Let’s find out! Participants will smell various spices in their native state and then attempt to identify each spice by smelling the oil of the spice, which has a high concentration of the scent molecules. The structure of the scent chemicals impacts how our neurons detect its scent, and models will be available so participants can connect the microscopic molecular structures to the macroscopic scents.
