Abstract
Realistic mathematical models of single neurons are significant in assessing the contribution of specific ionic conductances to neuronal excitability. This study presents a detailed computational model of the Cerebral Giant Cells (CGCs), a pair of serotonergic neurons in the feeding network of Lymnaea stagnalis, which are critical for the expression of motor behaviour (feeding) and the formation of long-term memory.
