This is the readme for the model associated with the papers: 1. Zhu JJ, Uhlrich DJ, Lytton WW (1999) Burst firing in identified rat geniculate interneurons. Neuroscience 91:1445-60 2. Zhu JJ, Lytton WW, Xue JT, Uhlrich DJ (1999) An intrinsic oscillation in interneurons of the rat lateral geniculate nucleus. J Neurophysiol 81:702-11 These model files were supplied by Bill Lytton with the following disclaimer: This is an attempt to recreate a set of simulations originally performed in 1994 under NEURON version 3 and last tested in 1999. When I ran it now it did not behave exactly the same as previously which I suspect is due to some minor mod file changes on my side rather than due to any differences among versions. After playing around with the parameters a little bit I was able to get something that looks generally like a physiological trace in J Neurophysiol, 81:702--711, 1999, fig. 8b top trace: This sad preface is simply offered in order to encourage anyone who is interested in this model to make and post fixes. I'm happy to help out.
