Biophysically realistic neuron models for simulation of cortical stimulation (Aberra et al. 2018)

This archive instantiates the single-cell cortical models used in (Aberra et al. 2018) and sets up extracellular stimulation with either a point-current source, to simulate intracortical microstimulation (ICMS), or a uniform E-field distribution, with a monophasic, rectangular pulse waveform in both cases.

Model Type: Neuron or other electrically excitable cell; Axon

Region(s) or Organism(s): Neocortex; Barrel cortex

Cell Type(s): Myelinated neuron

Model Concept(s): Action Potential Initiation; Detailed Neuronal Models

Simulation Environment: NEURON

Implementer(s): Aberra, Aman [aman.aberra at duke.edu]
