Input-dependent regulation of excitability controls dendritic maturation in somatosensory thalamocortical neurons

Sensory input and neuronal activity are crucial for proper morphological development of neurons. Here, Frangeul and colleagues show that membrane excitability is a critical component of dendritic development in mouse somatosensory thalamocortical neurons.
