Lecture

Adding a dendrite

Description

This lecture introduces the concept of adding a dendrite to a single compartmental model, explaining the process of creating and connecting the dendrite to the soma. The instructor demonstrates the impact of adding a dendrite by running simulations with and without it, highlighting the changes in action potentials and the role of resistances in the dendrite and soma. The lecture also includes a question for the audience to analyze the effects of adding a dendrite and an exercise to modify parameters for saving action potentials.
