What is it

Neuronvisio is a Graphical User Interface for NEURON simulator environment <http://www.neuron.yale.edu/neuron/>_. Neuronvisio connect with NEURON using the new python NEURON interface.

Features

  • 3D visualization of the model with the possibility to change it runtime
  • Creation of vectors to record any variables present in the section
  • Pylab integration to plot directly the result of the simulation
  • Exploration of the timecourse of any variable among time using a color coded scale
  • the GUI runs in its own thread so it's possible to use the console (integrated with IPython)
  • automatically download and load models from ModelDB <http://senselab.med.yale.edu/modeldb/>_

More info are available on the homepage: http://neuronvisio.org
