This transduction process is surprisingly complex and has been proposed to involveKeywords: action potential; animal cell; article; brain slice; cerebellum; controlled study; dendrite; dendritic cell; neocortex; nerve cell; nerve cell excitability; nerve fiber; nonhuman; priority journal; Purkinje cell; pyramidal nerve cell; rat; Action Potentia Action potential; Cerebellum; Dendrite; Modeling; NeocortexTargeted dendrotomy reveals active and passive contributions of the dendritic tree to synaptic integration and neuronal output200710.1073/pnas.07015861042015-12-08
