Dendritic patch-clamp recordings from cerebellar granule cells demonstrate electrotonic compactness

Cerebellar granule cells (GC), the smallest neurons in the brain, have on average four short dendrites that receive high-frequency mossy fiber inputs conveying sensory information. The short length of the dendrites suggests that GCs are electrotonically compact allowing unfiltered integration of den...
