bmtool

A collection of modules to make developing Neuron and BMTK models easier.

In depth documentation and examples can be found here

Getting Started

Installation

pip install bmtool

For developers who will be pulling down additional updates to this repository regularly use the following instead.

git clone https://github.com/cyneuro/bmtool.git
cd bmtool
python setup.py develop

Then download updates (from this directory) with

git pull

BMTool provides several modules to simplify the development of computational neuroscience models with NEURON and the Brain Modeling Toolkit (BMTK). It offers functionality for:

• Single Cell Modeling: Analyze passive properties, current injection, FI curves, and impedance profiles
• Synapse Development: Tools for tuning synaptic properties and gap junctions
• Network Construction: Connectors for building complex network structures
• Visualization: Plot connection matrices, network positions, and more
• Simulation Management: Run simulations on SLURM clusters with parameter sweeps
• Analysis: Process simulation results efficiently
