Just read a fantastic paper showing how dendritic morphology defines local computational subunits—letting neurons process synaptic input locally before it ever reaches the soma.
Dendrites are the brain of the neuron. 🧠✨

Dendritic plasticity in the retrosplenial cortex plays a key role in linking contextual memories formed close in time. This study reveals how overlapping neuronal ensembles & branch-specific plasticity integrate memories. doi.org/10.1038/s415... #Neuroscience #Memory #Dendrites

Compartmentalized dendritic plasticity in the mouse retrosplenial cortex links contextual memories formed close in time - Nature Neuroscience
Sehgal et al. show that branch-specific dendritic plasticity mechanisms in the retrosplenial cortex link memories acquired close in time such that, unlike independent memories, linked memories are encoded by many of the same dendritic branches.

How to migrate from X to Bluesky without losing your followers
This extension lets you easily migrate your follows and block list from X (formerly Twitter) to Bluesky, but you need to act fast because its functionality may be short-lived. Here's why.

‘Use the force,’ Mickey: Study suggests that ‘Jedi’ rodents remotely move matter using sound to enhance their sense of smell
It’s so far off the scale of what we know … it almost seems like magic,’ says University at Buffalo researcher Eduardo Mercado III.
