项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Dendrites play a central role in neuronal information processing by integrating thousands of synaptic inputs to generate a meaningful action potential output. Recent advances in molecular, electrophysiological and in vivo imaging techniques have led to a rapid enhancement in our understanding of the mechanisms that shape dendritic structure, function and connectivity. Such multifaceted approaches have further demonstrated the extent to which dendrite structure and function may undergo plastic changes that contribute to development, learning and neurodegenerative disease. This Gordon conference will bring together researchers whose latest findings help clarify how the molecular and cellular properties of dendrites enable them to perform complex computations important for sensory processing and higher cognitive function. The conference will be of interest to researchers and students in neuroscience, as well as to anyone interested in normal and abnormal brain function.

描述（由申请人提供）：树突通过整合数千个突触输入来产生有意义的动作电位输出，在神经元信息处理中起着核心作用。分子，电生理和体内成像技术的最新进展导致我们对塑造树突状结构，功能和连通性的机制的理解迅速增强。这种多方面的方法进一步证明了树突结构和功能可能在多大程度上发生塑性变化，从而有助于发育，学习和神经退行性疾病。这次戈登会议将汇集研究人员，其最新发现有助于阐明树突的分子和细胞特性如何使他们能够执行对感觉处理和更高认知功能重要的复杂计算。该会议将引起神经科学的研究人员和学生的感兴趣，以及对正常和异常大脑功能感兴趣的任何人。
