CA1 PV+ fast-firing hippocampal interneuron (Ferguson et al. 2013)


This two-variable simple model is derived based on patch-clamp recordings from the CA1 region of a whole hippocampus preparation of PV+ fast-firing cells. Since basket cells, axo-axonic cells and bistratified cells can be PV+ and fast-firing, this model could be representative of these cell types. The model code will also be made available on OSB.
