text: Thus, among the many roles that dendrites may play in the brain, in the context of an online familiarity-based recognition memory, separately thresholded dendrites play the critical role that they downsize the learning units from neuron-sized units (~20,000 synapses) to units containing a few hundred synapses, which are much more numerous, while still containing enough synapses to avoid the capacity costs associated with noise effects and shortened age queues.
