Re: Updating extracellular values for all segments!

That's true. Thank you for your comment and help Dr. Carnevale.

Re: Updating extracellular values for all segments!

Thank you Dr. Hines,

It works perfectly now! Thank you for your time and help!

Side note to other Neuron users: You may need to use "mknrndll" tool to recompile some of your mod files before you can run your models with the new version of Neruon!

Re: Updating extracellular values for all segments!

Great! Thank you Dr. Hines for the fix.
Just a novice question. How should I update this NEURON file on a MAC? Should I uninstall Neuron and reinstall it with the MAC installer tool?
Is the NEURON installer package also updated?

Thank you!

Re: Updating extracellular values for all segments!

I should also mention that I could set the xraxial values for each segment individually in a for loop: h.finitialize() for seg in Soma: seg.xraxial[0]=100 print(seg.xraxial[0], seg.xraxial[1], seg.diam) h.psection(sec=Soma) and I get the following results: 100.0 1000000000.0 500.0 100.0 1000000000.0...

Updating extracellular values for all segments!

Dear Ted, I created a section in Python with 7 segments and inserted an extracellular mechanism. Soma=h.Section() Soma.nseg=7 Soma.insert('extracellular') Soma.xraxial[0]=100 Soma.xg[0]=1e10 Soma.xc[0]=0 However, when I print xraxial values for each segment, I see that only one segment's xraxial val...

Re: How to make multiple segments with different length?

Dear Ted, Thank you for taking the time and helping me. Don't. Enforce a nonzero minimum length. So, let's assume that I have a long axon and I have a section (Length=L) in somewhere in the middle of my axonal model that I want to split it into two smaller sections. 1- All properties of these two se...

Re: How to make multiple segments with different length?

Dear Ted, Thanks for your reply and help. I really appreciate it. However, I have a question regarding splitting my section into different sections. In my application, my initial intent was to change the diameter (and some other range variables) of part of a section(s) in my axonal model based on my...

How to make multiple segments with different length?

Dear Ted, I was wondering if it is possible to have a section with multiple segments such that the length of each segment is not equal to the other segments's length? For example, let's assume that I have an internode section in my neuron model. Its length is 100um. I would like to have 5 segments. ...

Re: what is the minimum value that can be assigned to a sect

Dear Dr. Carnevale, Thank you very much for your reply. Here I explain my rational for using this method and I would appreciate it if you could let me know which part is wrong: Each section is a cylinder in my model. As far as I know, the surface area in terminal nodes (x=0,1) is zero. Therefore, th...

what is the minimum value that can be assigned to a section

Dears, I was wondering what is the minimum value that can be assigned to a section in NEURON without inducing computational problems? I want to model a kind of injury in neurons. I have a model of an axon with three (types) sections in internodal regions like this: Type 1 : A section with user-defin...

Recording Ionic concentrations

Dear Ted, I have a model of an axon with some membrane mechanisms (NMODL files of Fast K, Na and ...) added to that. In every NMODL file, I use "USEION x READ xi,xo,enx WRITE ix " to actually force NEURON keep track of ionic concentrations (xi,xo). These mechanisms are added to different s...

Recording membrane voltage along an axon

Dear Ted, I have made a simple model of an axon with 21 nodes. I use Clamp() to stimulate the first node of my axon. All nodes (and the same idea for internode) have similar properties (Passive + HH mechanisms). I recorded membrane voltage at all nodes (node[1].v(0.5),node[2].v(0.5),...). Surprising...
