Computational Models of Neural Systems
Download and install the Hodgkin-Huxley simulator
from http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/HHsim.
Note: both source and compiled versions (Windows and MacOS) are
available, so if you can't run the compiled version, just install
MATLAB and run the simulator from source.
Read Channeling
with Bard, an online tutorial
by G. Bard Ermentrout, to
understand the Hodgkin-Huxley parameters m, h,
and n.
Do the following exercises from the list of sample
exercises on the web page. Show your calculations, don't just
write down numbers.
- Part I, questions 1 and 2.
- Part II, questions 1 and 2.
- Part III, questions 1, 2, and 3.
Your answers are due on the date shown in the class schedule. Please
submit them via Canvas if possible. (If you're a cross-registered student
and don't yet have Canvas access, just email them to the instructor.)
