Abstract
Dendritic processing multiplies the computational power of a single neuron by enabling the processing of inputs in a spatio-temporally differentiated manner. Recently, the development of new and refined optical, electrophysio logical and molecular-biological techniques has led to new insights into de ndritic function and revealed an astonishing plethora of computational mech anisms.
