Dendritic branch intersections are structurally regulated targets for efficient axonal wiring and synaptic clustering.

Synaptic clustering on dendritic branches enhances plasticity, input integration and neuronal firing. However, the mechanisms guiding axons to cluster synapses at appropriate sites along dendritic branches are poorly understood. We searched for such a mechanism by investigating the structural overla...
