1. Follow Your Nose
Daniel talks with AHR editor Mark Bradley about the changes coming to the journal in March, in particular a new section called the AHR History Lab that will showcase collaborative projects that challenge us to rethink how history is done in the 21st century. Then a conversation with contributors to the Odeuropa project, an EU grant funded research endeavor that seeks to excavate, and bring back to life, the smells of Europe's past.

Addendum
When Sofia Ehrich notes that it is only International Flavors and Fragrances that deals with the chemical components of developing scents, this applied specifically in the case of the Museum Ulm scent tour. More broadly, members of University College London (UCL) are also a part of making scent reconstructions within the Odeuropa project.
