From Computer to Brain: Exercises & Models

Nota bene: These simulations require software package Neuron

The models have all been debugged but are not all optimized didactically. Ideas for modifications, enhancements, or further documentation are welcome.

Over 40 exercises cover all of the material in the book. Among them are the following:

Basic neurobiology: Combine inhibitory and excitatory signals at different times to fire a neuron.

Computer science: Programing a simple early computer demonstrates basic computer science concepts.

Neural networks: Use a learning algorithm to understand how the brain stabilizes the eyes during head movement.

Active neural membranes: Explore the Hodgkin-Huxley equations, the classical explanation of neural membrane biophysics.
