23 -Describe the audience of this collab.
21 +
22 +The tutorial is composed of three parts in which the user learns to simulate with NEST step by step.

31 +=== ===
32 +
33 +=== 1) NEST Desktop ===
34 +
35 +The first part of the tutorial, we look at NEST Desktop.  As a goal we will create and analyze a balanced two-population network.
36 +

38 +
39 +
40 +=== 2) NEST Simulator ===
41 +
42 +The tutorial will then turn to Jupyter (Python) notebooks where we will start by creating a spiking neurons. Here, we learn advanced steps to write code with NEST Simulation syntax. The scripting codes allow us to customize sophisticated use cases with NEST simulations. Examples are:
43 +
44 +* neuronal dynamics
45 +* large scale networks,
46 +* networks of spatial neurons
47 +* using plasticity
48 +
49 +
50 +=== 3) NESTML ===
51 +
52 +The last part is using NESTML to create custom neuron and synapse models for NEST Simulator. A functional plasticity rule will then be introduced into the balanced E/I network to implement a biologically realistic version of reinforcement learning. This will be done by formulating the learning model in the NESTML language syntax, and using the associated toolchain to generate code for NEST [4].
