Definition
The globus pallidus is a part of the basal ganglia in the vertebrate brain. Cellular models of the globus pallidus are computer representations of the specific dynamics of globus pallidus neurons.
Detailed Description
Goals of Globus Pallidus Cellular Models
Detailed cellular models of globus pallidus (GP) neurons are typically constructed to better understand how they integrate synaptic input and how their intrinsic properties contribute to the input–output function of the GP. The exploration of GP function in larger network models is typically carried out using less detailed cell models. The level of complexity and biological realism best used for a GP neuron model depends on the questions one wants to address (Herz et al. 2006) and ranges from simple integrate and fire models to complex full-morphological reconstructions with a full complement of ion channel types found in these neurons.
