Why Is Wilfrid Rall Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Wilfrid Rall was a neuroscientist who spent most of his career at the National Institutes of Health. He is considered one of the founders of computational neuroscience, and was a pioneer in establishing the integrative functions of neuronal dendrites. Rall developed the use of cable theory in neuroscience, as well as passive and active compartmental modeling of the neuron.
