Dear Benedict,
NEST comes with a simple conductance-based three-compartment integrate and fire neuron model. Its name is iaf_cond_alpha_mc. The model has compartments for the soma, the distal dendrite and the proximal dendrite. An example of how to connect it can be found here:
https://nest-simulator.readthedocs.io/en/latest/guides/connection_management...
The source code of the model is here:
https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/blob/master/models/iaf_cond_alpha_mc.... https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/blob/master/models/iaf_cond_alpha_mc....
If you should need much more complex or realistic multi-compartment models, NEST might not be the right tool for you and you should have a look at Arbor:

Best regards, Jochen!

Dear nest developer,
Is there a pre-implemented nest model allowing multiplicative aggregation of compartments/dendritic branches. I am looking for a model that will allow multiplicative aggregation of two dendritic branches at the soma.
I very much appreciate any support provided. Best regards, Benedikt _______________________________________________ NEST Users mailing list -- users@nest-simulator.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@nest-simulator.org
