Constructing New Models

Abstract

You have now explored several tutorials intended to both provide some insights into fundamental concepts in neurobiology and to introduce you to the use of neural simulations. The remainder of this book is intended to guide you in the creation of your own simulations. In general, we have found that the most efficient way to develop new simulations is to modify one that already exists and that you understand well. We would encourage you to consider starting with a tutorial most similar to the simulation you would like to build, after having learned a few basics of GENESIS programming from the following chapters.
