🧠 IMBB researchers use computational models to show that clustered synapses strongly activate dendrites, helping neurons learn spatial position with fewer active connections. An elegant, energy-efficient way to map space. @dendritesgr.bsky.social #Neuroscience #BrainResearch

Spiros Chavlis and I are very excited to share our latest #dendritic ANN research published in Nature Comms. @natureportfolio.bsky.social. We show that adopting the structure and sparse sampling features of biological #dendrites makes ANNs accurate, highly efficient and robust to overfitting.
