Computational neuroscientists use many software tools, and NEURON has become the leading tool for biophysical modeling of neurons and neural network.
Today’s guest has been the leading developer of NEURON since the infancy almost 50 years ago.
We talk about how the tool got started and the development up until today’s modern version of the software, including CoreNEURON optimized for parallel execution of large-scale network models on multicore supercomputers.
