Here is a direct follow-up on this, now showing how to implement #GapJunctions in a network of #spiking #neurons (#SNN) using the #NESTsimulator. We simulate a network of 500 inhibitory neurons with gap junctions and analyze the effects on #synchrony and #oscillations. The code is also available on GitHub. Feel free to modify and expand upon it π€

π New blog post: #GapJunctions (#ElectricalSynapses) enable direct electrical and chemical communication between #neurons, synchronizing activity and supporting rapid signal propagation. Their #modeling is crucial for understanding #NeuralNetworkDynamics, #oscillations, and #brain π§ function. Here is a brief summary including a small #PythonTutorial using the #NESTsimulator.
