Action potential reconstitution from measured current waveforms (Alle et al. 2009)

This NEURON code reconstitutes action potentials in a model of a hippocampal mossy fiber from experimentally measured sodium, potassium and calcium current waveforms as described in Alle et al. (2009).

Cell Type(s): Dentate gyrus granule GLU cell

Currents: I Na,t; I K; I Calcium

Model Concept(s): Action Potentials

Simulation Environment: NEURON

Implementer(s): Roth, Arnd ; Alle, Henrik
