Cover Picture: Activity-dependent formation of multi-neurite intersection sites increases presynaptic density and strength. Axons (red, anti-NFM) and dendrites (green, anti-MAP2) in culture grow toward sites of neurite-neurite contact and form multi-neurite intersections (MNIs). MNIs are enriched with presynaptic terminals with a superior release capability than those located elsewhere along dendrites. See Cove et al., pp. 83–92.
