Biological Basis of the Delayed Rectifier K+ Channel Model

The provided code models a delayed rectifier potassium (K+) channel as described in Durstewitz & Gabriel (2006). This type of ion channel is crucial for understanding the repolarization phase of the neuronal action potential and the regulation of neuronal excitability and firing patterns.

Key Biological Concepts
