modelling is the Integrate and Fire model Here a neuron is reduced to its most basic function fire action potentials or not Most of the physiological and mathematical richness of the Hodgkin Huxley model and the FHN model as per Question 1 to some extent is removed for the benefit of computational efficiency This becomes important as the number of neurons in a simulation increases to match what is seen in neural tissue about 105 per mm3 In its most basic form the Integrate and Fire nouron above the following DE
