NEURON is a simulation environment for modeling individual neurons and networks of neurons. It provides tools for conveniently building, managing, and using models in a way that is numerically sound and computationally efficient. It is particularly well-suited to problems that are closely linked to experimental data, especially those that involve cells with complex anatomical and biophysical properties.

Please describe here any common settings, configurations or conventions that would make the usage of this resource (library or tool) more interoperable or scalable across the HP-SEE resources. These recommendations should include anything that is related to the resource and is agreed upon by administrators and users, or across sites and applications. These recommendations should emerge from questions or discussions opened by site administrators or application developers, at any stage, including installation, development, usage, or adaptation for another HPC centre.

Features

NEURON is a simulation environment for modeling individual neurons and networks of neurons. It provides tools for conveniently building, managing, and using models in a way that is numerically sound and computationally efficient. It is particularly well-suited to problems that are closely linked to experimental data, especially those that involve cells with complex anatomical and biophysical properties.
