First, and most importantly, please remember that this is a **work in progress**!

The original Traub et al model was developed in FORTRAN, this was converted to NEURON by Tom Morse and Michael Hines, and this has now been converted to NeuroML & neuroConstruct.

Install NEURON, GENESIS or MOOSE (see project:simulators).

Generate synapse files

----------------------

36 5 Padraig Gleeson
Currently the majority of the synapse models (ChannelML based synapses in **cellMechanism** folder) are not included in the project in the repository.
37 5 Padraig Gleeson

These are generated by a script **makeSyns.sh** in **pythonScripts/netbuild**. This script was manually created from the info in teh Appendix of the original paper (it’s easier to check/update the values in **makeSyns.sh** than through the neuroConstruct GUI).

40 5 Padraig Gleeson
This script (or **makeSyns.bat** on Windows) needs to be run once to generate files **cellMechanisms/Syn\_AMPA\_L4SS\_L4SS/ChannelMLSyn.xml** etc.
