Dendritic shaft constrictions shape synaptic integration in neurons
For nearly 150 years, textbooks have described dendritic morphology as optimized for efficient synaptic voltage transfer from spines to the soma, implemented as a tubular design respecting Rall’s 3/2 rule for impedance matching at branch points. Here, we reveal that this view is an oversimplification. Using multiple hi...
