Abstract:
For expressing the condolences on the passing away of Dr. Hsiang-Tung Chang, one of the distinguished members of theChinese Academia of Sciences, the pioneer studies on cortical dendritic potentials that Dr. Chang carried out in the 1950s and theprosperous progresses since then, especially, concerning the modifications of synaptic plasticity by the dendritic back-propagatingaction potentials were briefly reviewed.
