CAAM 499, Section 1, VIGRE Seminar, Fall 2005
Neuronal Networks of the Hippocampus
When & Where: Wednesday 5-6pm in KH 105
Recommended Text:
Neuronal Networks of the Hippocampus, R.D. Traub and R. Miles
Prereqs: CAAM 415 or CoI.
Schedule:
August 31: Cox. Overview of Pinsky & Rinzel 2-compartment CA3 paper.
September 7: Cox. Intro to model with code
September 14: Toby Isaac. Section 3.1, Dissection of Burst Waveform
September 21: Jesse Chan, 3.1, Response to Steady Somatic Injection
and Response to Steady Dendritic Input
September 28: GroupThink, Section 3.3, Network Behavior
October 5: Section 3.3, More Network Behavior, and Introduction
to the network model of Meeter & Co.
And a visit to neuromod.org
October 12: Neel will introduce integrate-and-fire cells and
Cox will dig further into the Meeter work.
October 19: Frank will rewind us back to the start of the
Meeter work.
October 26: Nan will carry on.
November 2: Nan & poster prep.
November 9: I recommend we jetison Macgregor cells and adopt
the standard iaf cell . The associated code is
iaf1.m and
iaf2.m and
iaf2net.m
Code:
- The active soma from the 1982 paper of Traub.
In Matlab, traub1.m, or C,
traub1.c
- A demo of graded synaptic connections in a simple 3 cell net.
In Matlab, tricirc.m only.
- A shotgun wedding of Matlab and
C
Resources:
- Two C-packages: linear solver and
better linear solver .

- Rice Baylor Archive of Neuronal Morphology
