MUSCLE SPINDLE FEEDBACK CIRCUIT MODEL by Marco Capogrosso and Emanuele Formento Published in: Mechanisms Underlying the Neuromodulation of Spinal Circuits for Correcting Gait and Balance Deficits after Spinal Cord Injury. Moraud EM, Capogrosso M, Formento E, Wenger N, DiGiovanna J, Courtine G, Micera S. Neuron. 2016 Feb 17;89(4):814-28. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2016.01.009. Epub 2016 Feb 4. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% To run this program it is required to have Neuron with python installed. For faster simulations it is also suggested to install Neuron with the parallel option. Once Neuron is properly installed compile the mod files in ./hoc_files/mod_files by executing in the terminal: cd ./hoc_files/ nrnivmodl ./mod_files Then you can run the program by executing in the terminal: cd ./hoc_files python ../python_files/main.py # to run the program with a single process mpiexec -np 8 python ../python_files/main.py # tu run the program in with mpi (8 is the number of processes) mpiexec -np 8 nrniv -mpi -python ../python_files/main.py # as before but running the program from nrniv
