Printing the NetCon.syns was illuminating. Some of my NetCons contained other targets than expected. I supppose this is a blessing in disguise because it clearly showed the difference between what I thought my code was doing and what it actually did.

Thanks!

Dear Michael,

That is not quite what I want. I think I would like to get my hands on the first name printed by the StringFunctions references method, which seems to be the name of the references in which the list was first stored in the global namespace.

Ronald

According to the NetCon documentation http://www.neuron.yale.edu/neuron/static/docs/help/neuron/neuron/classes/netcon.html it should be possible to use a construction in hoc like: w = netcon.weight netcon.weight = w i=1 x = netcon.weight[i] netcon.weight[i] = x Where, as I understand it, for values ...

I have a GUI-element which uses an object passed as an argument during creation. I would like to be able to store the window in a session file, including the name of the objref passed when creating it. My code is something like this: begintemplate myGUI objref myObject proc init{ myObject =$o1 } // ...

Try begintemplate aT create d1 proc many(){ create d1[20] } endtemplate aT The information inside the functions is ignored when allocating space for an object of the class defined by the template, so you need to indicate outside a function but within the template that space for d1 should be allocated.

for(x) a=a+area(x) This bit of code iterates over all segments in the current section and adds up the contribution from each segment to calculate the area as specified by the pyramidal cell reconstruction. F = (L*spine_area*spine_dens + a)/a Calculate with which factor the area needs to be increase...

with W values such as W=0.1 and W=1 the cell goes from one state of insensitivity to other one of apparent Hyper excitability, but not linearly as it was my initial hypotheses To see the linear behavior you will have to keep the cell in voltage clamp, away from the reversal potential of the synapse...

You might want to try the grapher:

Abring, Do you want to make a model network or "merely" analyze data from an experiment? In the latter case octave, matlab or python are better choices for doing your work and you will probably need a good image processing toolbox. In the first case it depends on how much detail you want t...

Does it compile?
If not what are the error messages?

The ModelDB decision tree looks like a good guide line, and fits my gutfeeling that the code I have available is suitable for personal communication only.

Anyway I believe the changes I indicated are sufficient to change Bill's implementation into an artificial cell.

Well if that is helpfull I have an implementation, but it also includes clamp currents and Tsodyks plasticity model (adapted from Ted's implementation tmgsyn) and the only documentation is given in comments in the file, so it is not fully transparent and I am hesitant to put it on the website. If yo...

The implementation of Izhikevich's model in ModelDB is using the NetReceive block for resetting the model after a spike. Because no flag is used to indicate a self event every other mechanism that connects to it will also reset the model. As a result the model as given on ModelDB http://senselab.med...

Ted,

There is a nice example why you might want to do this available on ModelDB:
