Hi all!
I want to use investigate the effects of shunting inhibition in one of my experiments. I tried iaf_cond_alpha, but couldn't reproduce the shunting effect. Could someone please suggest which neuron model to use? There should be a way to also change the V_th, V_rest, C_m, tau_m or g_L for this model.
I am working with NEST 2.20.2
Best, Ady
Hi Ady,
First, I would encourage you to switch to NEST 3.3 to be able to make use of a lot of improvements to NEST over recent years.
Then the questions is what model (in terms of equations) you have for shunting inhibition. Once the equations are clear, we can look for a NEST model implementing these equations of generate a new model with NESTML (https://nestml.readthedocs.io/en/v5.1.0/).
