Most of the programs in the MacGregor book are point neuron models
rather than compartmental models. The few compartmental models seem
to depend on hodgkin-huxley parameters and conditions. The following
information described how to get a copy of a somewhat more flexible
neural system compartmental modeling program:

Here's how to get a preliminary copy of NEURON via ftp.
ftp sunjwm.neuro.duke.edu (128.109.232.3)
Name : anonymous
Password: your-name
cd pub/neuron
cd nrn-unix (compressed tar files)
( cd nrn-dos for pkzip files in self extracting .exe form)
dir
prompt
binary
mget *
quit
NEURON now allows users to add their own membrane mechanisms using
a high level model description language. This part is very new however
and I have not yet exercised it thoroughly.
I am interested in your comments and suggestions about the program.
To help me in maintaining a list of users (assuming you want to
be on such a list) send me an email message of the form:
