Dendrites are intricately designed neuronal compartments that play a vital role in the
gathering and processing of sensory or synaptic inputs. Their diverse and elaborate …

Neuronal dendrites acquire complex morphologies during development. These are not just
the product of cell-intrinsic developmental programs; rather they are defined in close …

During development, neurons achieve a stereotyped neuron type-specific morphology,
which relies on dynamic support by microtubules (MTs). An important player is the augmin …

Neuronal dendrites receive, integrate, and process numerous inputs and therefore serve as
the neuron's “antennae”. Dendrites display extreme morphological diversity across different …

Branching allows neurons to make synaptic contacts with large numbers of other neurons,
facilitating the high connectivity of nervous systems. Neuronal arbors have geometric …

Dendritic morphology is typically highly branched, and the branching and synaptic
abundance of dendrites can enhance the receptive range of neurons and the diversity of …

Nociception, the process of encoding and processing noxious or painful stimuli, allows
animals to detect and avoid or escape from potentially life-threatening stimuli. Here, we …

The branched architecture of neuronal dendrites is a key factor in how neurons form ordered
networks and discoveries continue to be made identifying proteins and protein–protein …

The Neural Development Simulator, NeuroDevSim, is a Python module that simulates the
most important aspects of brain development: morphological growth, migration, and pruning …

Dendritic morphology underlies the source and processing of neuronal signal inputs.
Morphology can be broadly described by two types of geometric characteristics. The first is …
