Model files in the NEURON simulation environment from the paper "Effects of synapse location, delay and background stochastic activity on synchronising hippocampal CA1 neurons" by Alessandro Fiasconaro and Michele Migliore Chaos Solitons and Fractals X 2024 Usage: Auto-launch from ModelDB or: Compile the mod files with `mknrndll` (mswin or graphical mac) or `nrnivmodl` (windows/mac/unix/linux)). Start the simulation by (windows/mac/unix/linux) typing on the command line: ``` nrngui mosinit.hoc ``` or (mac os x) drag and dropping the `mosinit.hoc` file on the nrngui icon or (mswin) double clicking on the `mosinit.hoc` file. After selecting the e-type and the corresponding input current, simulation will run a typical simulation as calculated in the paper. The main parameters of the simulation can be changed inside the `mosinit.hoc` file: ``` Nexp = 1 // Nr of simulations wi = 0.05 // synapse inhibition weight ws = 5e-4 // synapse excitatory weight Nsyn = 20 // Nr of synapses in each soma ds[0] = 100 // proximal synapse distance (fixed in the paper) ds[1] = 150 // distal synapse distance (variable) Dsd = 20 // width of the synapse distribution aroud their mean values ds[0] and ds[1] chnoise = 1 // 1=Poisson distributed pulsed synaptic inputs FreqInp = 60 // mean input frequency of the pulsed inputs del = 2 // delay on the activation of the inhibitory response ```
