Chronic 2P-STED imaging reveals high turnover of dendritic spines in the hippocampus in vivo

Rewiring neural circuits by the formation and elimination of synapses is thought to be a key cellular mechanism of learning and memory in the mammalian brain. Dendritic spines are the postsynaptic structural component of excitatory synapses, and their experience-dependent plasticity has been extensi...
