Short Course Announcement
USING THE NEURON SIMULATION ENVIRONMENT
Satellite Symposium, Society for Neuroscience Meeting
9 AM - 5 PM on Saturday, Nov. 4, 2000
Speakers: N.T. Carnevale, M.L. Hines,
J.W. Moore, and G.M. Shepherd
This 1 day course with lectures and live demonstrations will
present information essential for teaching and research
applications of NEURON, an advanced simulation environment
that handles realistic models of biophysical mechanisms,
individual neurons, and networks of cells. The emphasis is
on practical issues that are key to the most productive use
of this powerful and convenient modeling tool.
Features that will be covered include:
importing detailed morphometric data
constructing and managing models of neurons
with the CellBuilder
constructing and managing network models
with the new Network Builder
using the Multiple Run Fitter to optimize models
that have high-dimensional datasets
NEURON's new functions for parallelizing simulations
over a workstation cluster (32-bit MSWindows and/or
UNIX/Linux boxes)
database resources for empirically-based modeling
Each registrant will receive a CD-ROM with software, plus
a comprehensive set of notes that includes material which
has not appeared elsewhere in print.
