Biological Basis of the Cerebellum Granule Cell Model Code

The provided code is a computational model of a potassium inward rectifier channel (Kir) within a cerebellum granule cell. These cells are among the smallest and most numerous neurons in the brain, involved in processing information in the cerebellum—a brain region critical for motor control and cognitive functions.

Key Biological Aspects
