Passive, multi-compartment conductance-based model of a T4 cell. The model reproduces the neuron's response to moving stimuli via integration of spatially offset fast excitatory and slow inhibitory inputs.
Region(s) or Organism(s): Drosophila

Model Concept(s): Invertebrate
Simulation Environment: NEURON
Implementer(s): Gruntman, Eyal [ gruntmane at janelia.hhmi.org]; Romani, Sandro [ romanis at janelia.hhmi.org]
