High-resolution imaging, 3D computer modeling reveal the fractal nature of neurons High-resolution imaging and 3D computer modeling show that the dendrites of neurons weave through space in a way that balances their need to connect to other neurons with the costs of doing so. The discovery, reported in Nature Scientific Reports Jan. 27, emerged as researchers sought to understand the fractal nature of neurons as part of a University of Oregon project to design fractal-shaped electrodes to connect with retinal neurons to address vision loss due to retinal diseases. The challenge in our research has been understanding how the neurons we want to target in the retina will connect to our electrodes. Essentially, we have to fool the neurons into thinking that the electrode is another neuron by making the two have the same fractal character.
