85 85  PyNN comes with a selection of integrate-and-fire models. We're going to use the IF_curr_exp model, where "IF" is for integrate-and-fire, "curr" means that synaptic responses are changes in current, and "exp" means that the shape of the current is a decaying exponential function.

87 -This is where we set the parameters of the model: the resting membrane potential is -65 millivolts, the spike threshold is -55 millivolts, the reset voltage after a spike is again -65 millivolts, the refractory period after a spike is one millisecond, the membrane time constant is 10 milliseconds, and the membrane capacitance is 1 nanofarad. We're also going to inject a constant bias current of 1.1 nanoamps into these neurons, so that we get some action potentials.

357 357  Of course, PyNN allows you to create much more complex networks than this, with more realistic neuron models, synaptic plasticity, spatial structure, and so on. You can also use other simulators, such as Brian or SpiNNaker, and you can run simulations in parallel on clusters or supercomputers.
