Dendritic spikes control synaptic plasticity and somatic output in cerebellar Purkinje cells

Neurons receive the vast majority of their input onto their dendrites. Dendrites express a plethora of voltage-gated channels. Regenerative, local events in dendrites and their role in the information transformation in single neurons are, however, poorly understood. This thesis investigates the basi...
