• Reference: Branco T, Hausser M (2011): Synaptic integration gradients in single cortical pyramidal cell dendrites.

Metadata classes

• Animal Model: rat
• Brain Area: somatosensory cortex, layer 2/3, visual cortex, cortex
• Neuron Region: soma, dendrites
• Neuron Type: pyramidal cell
• Runtime Q: Q1 (fast)
• Subtype: T-type

Metadata generic

• Age: 3-5 weeks old
• Authors: AS, B Kampa
• Comments: T-type ca channel (low threshold), leading to thalamic ca current. Inspired by destexhe and huguenard, modified from as oct 1999, b kampa 2005. From kampa & stuart (2006), model no. 108458, with no modification (identical mod file). These papers feature experimental electrophysiology and imaging, as well as construction of a morphology of a l2/3 pyramidal neuron for modeling. The animal model info here is from the experimental methods, although the experiments may also have been performed in other layers as well.
• Runtime: 6.925
• Temperature: No temperature dependence
