Dendritic computation

M London, M Häusser - Annu. Rev. Neurosci., 2005 - annualreviews.org
One of the central questions in neuroscience is how particular tasks, or computations, are
implemented by neural networks to generate behavior. The prevailing view has been that …

Dendritic Na+ Current Inactivation Can Increase Cell Excitability By Delaying a Somatic Depolarizing Afterpotential
