Grant Activity:
Probing the role of dendrites in cortical gain control
Purpose:
The brain needs to adjust its activity to a wide range of external stimuli. It amplifies weak input, but reduces the impact of strong input. The capacity of the brain to work in this way is currently thought to result from complex network interactions involving many neurons. By using a range of novel imaging approaches this project will reveal that subcellular processes of individual nerves cells – call dendrites – contribute to this computation, providing new insights into how our brain works.
