These technologies enable the investigation of the functions of dendritic spikes in behaving animals, and thus, help uncover the causal relationship between dendritic spikes, and sensory information processing and synaptic plasticity.

Claim 2field limitationsupports2017Source 1DOI PubMed

A major reason the physiological relevance of dendritic spikes remains unclear is that most dendrite studies have been performed in vitro.
