Default mode Network modulations during olfactory processing can provide valuable information since both networks are implicated in higher-order cognitive processing. Network deactivation refers to a relatively higher level of neural activity during rest conditions (or low demand tasks) compared to active (or high-demand) conditions. Using olfactory fMRI, we provide direct evidence to 1) support DMN deactivation during odor stimulation and 2) establish a functional connection between olfactory and DMN networks to suggest a role for higher-order cognitive processing for olfaction.
