I am updating the package.py script a bit so that it can build; though I wonder who are the maintainers of the Spack package currently?

NEST developer documentation

by Cristiano Alessandro

Dear all, I am new to developing NEST neuron models. I am aware I should use NEST-ML and I started that way, but I now need to modify the (successfully) generated C++ code. To do so, I would like to understand the details of the C++ implementation, including the overall logic of the class NEST-ML created (what is the functionality of the methods and attributes). Where can I find documentation about this? I would also like to take a look at the description of the NEST C++ developers library. I could not find these aspects in the Nest Developer Space. Thank you in advance. Best Cristiano

by Dennis Terhorst

Dear NEST Users & Developers! I would like to invite you to our next fortnightly Open NEST Developer Video Conference today Monday 07 December, 11.30-12.30 CET (UTC+1). In the Project team round, a contact person of each team will give a short statement summarizing ongoing work in the team and cross-cutting points that need discussion among the teams. The remainder of the meeting we would go into a more in-depth discussion of topics that came up on the mailing list or that are suggested by the teams. Agenda Welcome Review of NEST User Mailing List Project team round In-depth discussion To squash, or not to squash The agenda for this meeting is also available online, see https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/wiki/2020-12-07-Open-NEST-Developer-… Looking forward to seeing you soon! best, Dennis Terhorst ------------------ Log-in information ------------------ We use a virtual conference room provided by DFN (Deutsches Forschungsnetz). You can use the web client to connect. We however encourage everyone to use a headset for better audio quality or even a proper video conferencing system (see below) or software when available.

Combining neuron model features

by d.standage＠bham.ac.uk

Hi all - I'm aiming to run simulations using Izhikevich's neuron model (or another efficient model with spike generation), two dendritic compartments, two glutamate receptor subtypes, and temporal synaptic dynamics. My understanding is that Nest supports the Izhikevich neuron model with instantaneous current injection (i.e. no synaptic dynamics), the iaf_cond_alpha_mc neuron model for multiple compartments, the aeif_cond_alpha_multisynapse model for multiple receptor subtypes, and any of the _psc_ or _cond_ neuron models for synaptic dynamics. Am I looking at multiple choice here? I.e. I can't use a single neuron model with all of these features? If so, does anyone know of any Nest add-ons that efficiently handle all the features above? I'd be grateful for any advice. Best Dominic

Reset Spike Detector

by feldotto

Dear all,I am running a large simulation where I need to evaluate the spike frequency of large populations in several elapsed time frames. In order to keep this procedure efficient and memory efficient, is it possible to reset the spikeDetector (delete all events)?Thanks in advance!Best,Benedikt

NEST network object

by alehr

Dear NEST developer, I would like to initialize a network with neurons and connections and then run many simulations with it. It would be great if I could build the network one time and then deepcopy (or something similar) for each simulation. Is something like this possible? Thanks, Andrew Lehr
