Short Course Announcement
USING THE NEURON SIMULATION ENVIRONMENT
Satellite Symposium, Society for Neuroscience Meeting
9 AM - 5 PM on Friday, Oct. 13, 2006
Speakers to include M.L. Hines and N.T. Carnevale
NEURON is a powerful and convenient simulator that handles realistic models of
biophysical mechanisms, individual neurons, and networks of cells, and runs under
MSWindows, OS X, and UNIX/Linux. This one day course will present information
essential for research and teaching applications of NEURON. The emphasis is on
practical issues that are key to its most productive use.
Topics that will be covered include:
constructing and managing models of cells and networks
parallelizing network models
expanding NEURON's repertoire of biophysical mechanisms
database resources for empirically-based modeling
Each registrant will a comprehensive set of notes.
Registration is limited to 40 individuals on a first-come, first serve basis.
Registration deadline is Friday, September 29, 2006.
