Firing patterns in stuttering fast-spiking interneurons (Klaus et al. 2011)

This is a morphologically extended version of the fast-spiking interneuron by Golomb et al. (2007). The model captures the stuttering firing pattern and subthreshold oscillations in response to step current input as observed in many cortical and striatal fast-spiking cells.

Model Type: Neuron or other electrically excitable cell

Cell Type(s): Neostriatum fast spiking interneuron

Currents: I Na,t; I K; I A, slow

Model Concept(s): Activity Patterns; Stuttering

Simulation Environment: GENESIS; PGENESIS

Implementer(s): Klaus, Andreas
