Pyramidal neurons and their dendrites from a mouse brain
Named for their triangular cell bodies, pyramidal neurons reside in the brain and act as the main conduit of information flow, passing on electrical signals from one area of the brain to the next. Pyramidal neurons are known for their many branches of dendrites, the inputs of a neuron that—when efficiently stimulated—trigger a neuron to fire a signal to other neurons. Dendritic branching allows a single neuron to communicate with thousands of others within a network, all within a fraction of a second.
