商品描述

Although the sense of smell is often taken for granted, approximately 20% of the population experiences some degree of olfactory dysfunction, ranging from partial impairment (hyposmia) to complete loss (anosmia). These individuals find that their olfactory dysfunction not only handicaps them in their daily life, but also affects their physical and psychological health. Various paradigms exist for restoring the sense of smell, but these methods are not effective for all patients, leaving many to suffer a degraded quality of life. These patients are seeking solutions, including prosthetic technology. While implants and prostheses already exist for other sensory modality such as hearing, developing an olfactory prosthesis technology is more complex, as it must overcome the dual obstacles of the detection of odorous molecules and neural stimulation.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the art. Tackling existing challenges through an interdisciplinary approach, Olfactory Prosthesis: From Concept Towards Reality brings together researchers in nanotechnology to develop appropriate olfactory sensors, in microtechnology, medicine and neuroscience to develop neural stimulators capable of targeting the olfactory system, in biotechnology and machine learning to combine sensor and stimulator technologies, and in mechanical design and cognitive sciences to make these integrated devices usable in real life. Finally, the book presents an initial proof of concept for an olfactory substitution prosthesis.

儘管嗅覺常常被視為理所當然，但約有20%的人口經歷某種程度的嗅覺功能障礙，範圍從部分喪失（嗅覺減退，hyposmia）到完全喪失（嗅覺喪失，anosmia）。這些人發現，嗅覺功能障礙不僅在日常生活中造成困擾，還影響他們的身體和心理健康。雖然存在各種恢復嗅覺的模式，但這些方法對所有患者並不有效，導致許多人生活品質下降。這些患者正在尋求解決方案，包括義肢技術。雖然聽覺等其他感官的植入物和義肢已經存在，但開發嗅覺義肢技術更為複雜，因為它必須克服檢測氣味分子和神經刺激的雙重障礙。

本書提供了最先進技術的全面概述。通過跨學科的方法解決現有挑戰，《嗅覺義肢：從概念到現實》匯聚了納米技術領域的研究人員，以開發合適的嗅覺傳感器；微技術、醫學和神經科學領域的專家，以開發能夠針對嗅覺系統的神經刺激器；生物技術和機器學習領域的研究者，以結合傳感器和刺激器技術；以及機械設計和認知科學領域的專家，以使這些集成設備在現實生活中可用。最後，本書展示了一個嗅覺替代義肢的初步概念驗證。

作者簡介

Moustafa Bensafi is a CNRS Research Director at the Lyon Neuroscience Research Center, where he leads pioneering research on the psychology and neurobiology of olfaction. His research bridges neuroscience, cognitive sciences, and clinical applications, addressing a critical gap in understanding how the brain interprets smells and their emotional significance. He earned his PhD on the affective processing of odors under the supervision of André Holley and Catherine Rouby, and further expanded his expertise during a post-doctorate at the University of California at Berkeley, before joining the CNRS in 2004. In 2008, Moustafa Bensafi was awarded the CNRS Bronze Medal, recognizing his outstanding early-career contributions to neuroscience. He is the author of over 150 scientific publications and the book "Brain and Smell". From 2021 to 2025, he coordinated the European ROSE project, a multidisciplinary effort to develop the first proof of concept for an olfactory prosthesis. He is a leading figure in olfactory cognition research, with a career marked by innovation, leadership, and a commitment to both scientific discovery and societal impact.
