Hotspots of dendritic spine turnover facilitate clustered spine addition and learning and memory
Structural remodeling of dendritic spines is thought to be a mechanism of memory storage. Here, the authors look at how spine turnover and clustering predict future learning and memory performance, and see that a genetically modified mouse with enhanced spine turnover has enhanced learning.
