The spiny relationship between parallel fibers, climbing fibers, and Purkinje cells.
Paper summary
Reviews Purkinje-cell spine structure, formation, stabilization, and interactions with parallel and climbing fibers. It distinguishes mechanisms of protrusion from contact-dependent maintenance and examines uncertain estimates of spine abundance.
Relevance to the project
Supports separating candidate discovery, contact formation, and retention in the rewiring model. Geometry and signaling need not be identical relations.
A specialized neuronal morphology does not dictate the project's degree cap.
