Impact of functional synapse clusters on neuronal response selectivity

The formation of functional synaptic clusters (FSCs) and their impact on somatic membrane potential (sVm) in vivo are poorly understood. Here, the authors develop a computational approach to show that FSCs have to form via local rather than global plasticity and be moderately large to impact sVm.
