Grüneberg ganglion

The Grüneberg ganglion, also written as Grueneberg ganglion and Gruneberg ganglion, is an olfactory ganglion at the entrance of the nose of mammals that is involved in the detection of alarm pheromones[1] and cold temperatures.[2] The ganglion was first described by Hans Grüneberg in 1973.[3]
