This readme file is for the model published in: Doron M, Muller EB, Chindemi G, Markram H, Segev I (2017) Timed synaptic inhibition shapes NMDA spikes, influencing local dendritic processing and global I/O properties of cortical neurons. Cell Reports https://doi.org/10.1016/j.celrep.2017.10.035 We have used the models of Hay et al., 2011 and of Grunditz et al., 2008 to study the effect of timed inhibition over the dendritic NMDA spike. These code scripts, written in a combination of python and NEURON, can be used to reproduce the 6 figures from the main text of the paper (The code for the supplementary figures will be given upon request). Questions on how to use this model should be directed to michael.doron@mail.huji.ac.il Changelog --------- 2022-05: Updated MOD files to contain valid C++ and be compatible with the upcoming versions 8.2 and 9.0 of NEURON.
