Ipsilateral odors are encoded faster than contralateral odors in piriform cortexBi-nostril odors are encoded in two non-overlapping epochs within a single sniffRobustness of odor coding correlates with improved odor identification across subjectsThe timing of odor coding determines when piriform responses inform odor identification.
