Metadata generic

• Authors: J Moyer
• Comments: Transient and low threshold calcium current (t-current). Model used previously in wolf et al. (2005), and moyer et al. (2007), paper also cites mermelstein et al. (1998) for channel parameters. Taken from wolf et al. (2005), model no. 112834, with various changes to the mod file. Modeling study based on several previous studies (mermelstein et al. 1999, wolf et al. 2005), which use rat data.
• Runtime: 7.691
• Temperature: Model has temperature dependence.
