Modeling and Simulation of Neocortical Micro- and Mesocircuitry. Part I: Anatomy

Henry Markram, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, James Gonzalo King, Lida Kanari, Ying Shi, Armando Romani, Adrien Michel Achille Devresse

The function of the neocortex is fundamentally determined by its repeating microcircuit motif, but also by its rich, hierarchical, interregional structure with a highly specific laminar architecture. The last decade has seen the emergence of extensive new ...

Assemblies, synapse clustering and network topology interact with plasticity to explain structure-function relationships of the cortical connectome

Eilif Benjamin Muller, Michael Reimann, James Gonzalo King, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Giuseppe Chindemi, András Ecker, Sirio Bolaños Puchet, James Bryden Isbister, Daniela Egas Santander

Synaptic plasticity underlies the brain’s ability to learn and adapt. While experiments in brain slices have revealed mechanisms and protocols for the induction of plasticity between pairs of neurons, how these synaptic changes are coordinated in biologica ...

Modeling and simulation of neocortical micro- and mesocircuitry. Part II: Physiology and experimentation

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, James Gonzalo King, Rajnish Ranjan, Armando Romani, Mustafa Anil Tuncel, Aleksandra Zuzanna Teska, Polina Litvak

Cortical dynamics underlie many cognitive processes and emerge from complex multi-scale interactions, which are challenging to study in vivo. Large-scale, biophysically detailed models offer a tool which can complement laboratory approaches. We present a m ...

Community-based reconstruction and simulation of a full-scale model of region CA1 of rat hippocampus

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, James Gonzalo King, Lida Kanari, Ying Shi, Armando Romani, Davide Bella, Felix Schürmann

The CA1 region of the hippocampus is one of the most studied regions of the rodent brain, thought to play an important role in cognitive functions such as memory and spatial navigation. Despite a wealth of experimental data on its structure and function, i ...

STEPS 4.0: Fast and memory-efficient molecular simulations of neurons at the nanoscale

Felix Schürmann, James Gonzalo King, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Christos Kotsalos, Tristan Mathieu Carel, Iain Hepburn, Samuel Marie A Melchior, Weiliang Chen, Baudouin Paul Michel Maria Joseph Del Marmol

Recent advances in computational neuroscience have demonstrated the usefulness and importance of stochastic, spatial reaction-diffusion simulations. However, ever increasing model complexity renders traditional serial solvers, as well as naive parallel imp ...

Modernizing the NEURON Simulator for Sustainability, Portability, and Performance

James Gonzalo King, Felix Schürmann, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Ioannis Magkanaris

The need for reproducible, credible, multiscale biological modeling has led to the development of standardized simulation platforms, such as the widely-used NEURON environment for computational neuroscience. Developing and maintaining NEURON over several d ...

A calcium-based plasticity model for predicting long-term potentiation and depression in the neocortex

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Rodrigo de Campos Perin, James Gonzalo King, Vincent Delattre, Mustafa Anil Tuncel, Werner Alfons Hilda Van Geit, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Giuseppe Chindemi

Pyramidal cells (PCs) form the backbone of the layered structure of the neocortex, and plasticity of their synapses is thought to underlie learning in the brain. However, such long-term synaptic changes have been experimentally characterized between only a ...

An Optimizing Multi-platform Source-to-source Compiler Framework for the NEURON MODeling Language

Felix Schürmann, James Gonzalo King, Michael Lee Hines, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Jorge Blanco Alonso, Liam Roger George Keegan

Domain-specific languages (DSLs) play an increasingly important role in the generation of high performing software. They allow the user to exploit domain knowledge for the generation of more efficient code on target architectures. Here, we describe a new c ...
