The Neuron model simulates the membrane potentials in vertebrate neurons, which are modeled as three serially connected compartments: dendrite, soma, and axon. The model is designed to simulate the dynamic properties of neurons including electrotonic spread between neuronal compartments (dendrite, soma, and axon).
Keywords: parameter, variable, length constant, time constant, electrotonic spread, sodium conductance, potassium conductance, inward rectifier, h current
