RESUMO
Automation of the process of developing biophysical conductance-based neuronal models involves the selection of numerous interacting parameters, making the overall process computationally intensive, complex, and often intractable. A recently reported insight about the possible grouping of currents into distinct biophysical modules associated with specific neurocomputational properties also simplifies the process of automated selection of parameters. The present paper adds a new current module to the previous report to design spike frequency adaptation and bursting characteristics, based on user specifications. We then show how our proposed grouping of currents into modules facilitates the development of a pipeline that automates the biophysical modeling of single neurons that exhibit multiple neurocomputational properties. The software will be made available for public download via our site cyneuro.org.
