NEURONpyxl: fast, flexible, Python-integrated simulation of biophysical neural networks with complex plastic synapses
Curtis L. Neveu
IntroductionNEURON has been widely used as an empirically-based simulation tool, especially for multi-compartment conductance-based neuronal modeling. The network mediating feeding in Aplysia californica has been extensively studied as a model central pattern generator. Understanding the relationship between network parameter values and their effect on animal behavior is of key importance in systems such as the Aplysia feeding apparatus, where detailed biophysical models can be constructed.Objec
