Re: Any simple way to identify parent segment of point porce

ramcdougal , thank you, for the suggestion! That is a very neat solution. But if we start from accuracy and electrical length, the number of segments is a constant, unless my dendrites start growing. From this point of view, the best strategy to minimize the amount of computation is to be sure that...

Re: Any simple way to identify parent segment of point porce

Thank you, Ted, unless they belong to instances of an event-driven point process class (synaptic mechanism) that can be driven by multiple input streams, and you want to exploit that property in order to reduce model complexity and speed up simulations. Which apparently is rth's aim. As you know fro...

Any simple way to identify parent segment of point porcess

Dear All, I apologize for a very trivial question. I have a python class which reconstructs neuron morphology from an SWF file, sets channels and so on. Now with such a nice reconstruction, I need to create 6k - 10k synapses on dendrite tree. Moreover, there are about 5 different synapses classes, w...

Re: Gradual change of synaptic weights for mimicking neuromo

A vector instance can play into only one reference variable. So if there are a lot of them and only a few modulation instances, it may be more efficient to modify the synapse so the NET_RECEIVE block multiplies the weight argument by a POINTER to one of a small number of modulation values per threa...

Gradual change of synaptic weights for mimicking neuromod...

I want to model a gradual change in synaptic conductance due to changing in concentration of some neuromodulator. I have a list of connections. Each element of the list is a tuple of (NetCon, presynaptic index, postsynaptic indexes). Now I'm trying to use Vector.play, to change synaptic weight durin...

Re: h.fadvance() stops python threading, why?

Thank you, for reply. Well, it isn't fortune. I'm trying to run a quite long simulation (minutes) and of course memory couldn't hold all generated data. So the idea was to run a simulation for one second, copy all vectors into python and resume a simulation, while python saves data on disk. It isn't...

h.fadvance() stops python threading, why?

Hi all, I have a bit strange problem with using threading Python module with NEURON. I run NEURON -- Release 7.4 (1370:16a7055d4a86) 2015-11-09 from Python 2.7.12 (default, Nov 19 2016, 06:48:10) script under Linux 4.4.0-53-generic #74-Ubuntu SMP Fri Dec 2 15:59:10 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/...

NEURON implementation of Compte et al 2003 pyramidal cell

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for implementation of two compartment pyramidal cell model from Compte et al 2003 in NEURON.
http://jn.physiology.org/content/89/5/2707.long

Couldn't find anything, even similar, in Model DB.
Thank you,

Re: Choosing random dendrite

Thank you Ted! I've got your idea to make a uniform distribution over the surface. I like it more than my previous one. We try to place synapses randomly at some distance from soma to mimic experimental data. So I have bunch of segments trunk[0] ... trunk[79] and apical[1]... apical[98], each of whi...

Re: Choosing random dendrite

Ted, But code above ensures that one section will have ONLY ONE synapse. It is not truly randomly chosen section from list. For example I want 50 synapses in random sections from SectionList and random position within each section. Position isn't problem, but how I can randomly choose section in Sec...

Re: Apply extracellular stimulation using electric field

Dear Hyeon, We also tried to use Pashut et al. (2011) TMS model. After few days working with model posted on modeldb, I have found two horrible bugs in the 2D code. The first is that: matlab part of this model generates two matrices 4001x4001 points of Ex and Ey components of electric field. Matlab ...
