Run this script to simulate and plot the IS3 models (code also available at https://github.com/FKSkinnerLab/IS3-Cell-Model/tree/master/RhythmTests). Note that this code was written for use with python 2.7 but has been adapted here for use in python 3.
Directories
-----------
1 /SWR/ - Simulates in vivo-like inputs + SWR-timed inputs and plots results
2 /Theta/ - Simulates in vivo-like inputs + theta-timed inputs and plots results
3 /Theta_DoubledInputs/ - Simulates in vivo-like inputs + theta-timed inputs + doubling specific inputs and then plots results
4 /Theta_RemovedInputs/ - Simulates in vivo-like inputs + theta-timed inputs + removing specific inputs and then plots results
5 /Theta_NoiseTests/ - Simulates in vivo-like inputs + theta-timed inputs + effects of noise and then plots results

Model invocation
----------------
Before running the simulations you must first compile the mod files using the following command:
nrnivmodl
To run simulations, first cd into the directory of interest and then use python as a command-line argument as follows:
python init.py
