Exploring Developmental Mechanisms and Function of Drosophila Motoneuron Dendrites with Targeted Genetic Manipulation of Dscam

abstract: Specific dendritic morphologies are a hallmark of neuronal identity, circuit assembly, and behaviorally relevant function. Despite the importance of dendrites in brain health and disease, the functional consequences of dendritic shape remain largely unknown. This dissertation addresses two...
