Genesis: a neuronal simulation system

  • Chapter
Neural Systems: Analysis and Modeling

Abstract

The use of numerical simulation techniques to study neurobiology has grown over the past few years to encompass systems ranging from molecular level processes occurring in real neurons to systems of many thousands of highly abstract neuron-like elements (Touretzky, 1990 Koch and Segev, 1989; Zornetzer et al 1990). It is increasingly apparent that all these levels of analysis are interrelated and may be essential to the understanding of the functioning of the nervous system (Bower, 1991)
