Attention: Due to an upgrade beginning on Friday, the 22nd August 2025, any new collabs, groups and any changes to teams will not be kept beyond the weekend. User creation will also be disabled during this time. The actual upgrade will take place on Wednesday, 27th August. On that day, any service requiring a Keycloak login will be unavailable for the duration of the upgrade. Thank you for your understanding as we complete this important work.

1 -PyNN (//pronounced 'pine'//) is a simulator-independent language for building neuronal network models.
1 +This collab is currently being used to plan tutorials for PyNN. Once we have completed at least one of the "Installing PyNN" tutorials and the "Building and simulating a simple model" tutorial, we will make it public.

3 -In other words, you can write the code for a model once, using the PyNN API and the Python programming language, and then run it without modification on any simulator that PyNN supports (currently [[NEURON>>url:http://www.neuron.yale.edu/neuron/]], [[NEST>>url:http://www.nest-initiative.org/?page=Software]], and [[Brian>>url:http://briansimulator.org/]]), and on the [[SpiNNaker>>url:http://apt.cs.manchester.ac.uk/projects/SpiNNaker/]] and [[BrainScaleS>>url:https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/en/silicon-brains/]] neuromorphic hardware systems.
