ABSTRACT: Biophysically detailed models of single neurons which draw
on a wide variety of experimental and theoretical foundations are
increasingly important in the understanding of the functional role of
various cellular mechanisms. In this paper, such an approach is
detailed for pyramidal neurons of the hippocampus. Included is a
review of the experimental literature, descriptions of biophysical
models appropriate for the analysis of single cell behaviour, a
comparative review of several published models, and parameters for an
updated model of this cell type.
