Model overview

==============

[Vogels et al 2011](http://www.sciencemag.org/content/334/6062/1569.short) provides an extension of the model described in [Vogels and Abbott 2005](http://www.jneurosci.org/content/25/46/10786.short) mainly in order to evaluate the role of inhibitory synapse plasticity in recovering an asynchronous network state after a manifestation of some memory pattern (i.e., highly correlated activity of some neuron group).

Downloading and running a simulation
====================================

Install [PyNN](http://neuralensemble.org/trac/PyNN/wiki/Installation). Make sure to use the latest v0.8 version from [GitHub](https://github.com/NeuralEnsemble/PyNN), which includes the required Vogels2011Rule synapse. Note: NEURON is the only supported simulator for this model at the moment. As they showed …

[Install Git](http://www.opensourcebrain.org/projects/gitintro/wiki/Wiki) and type:

> git clone https://github.com/OpenSourceBrain/VogelsEtAl2011.git

> cd VogelsEtAl2011/PyNN

To run a simulation type:

> python vogelsEtAl2011.py neuron
