| Simulations of oscillations in piriform cortex (Wilson & Bower 1992) |
| Accession: 143446 |
"1. A large-scale computer model of the piriform cortex was
constructed on the basis of the known anatomic and physiological
organization of this region.
2. The oscillatory field potential and electroencephalographic
(EEG) activity generated by the model was compared with actual
physiological results. The model was able to produce patterns of
activity similar to those recorded physiologically in response to
both weak and strong electrical shocks to the afferent input. The
model also generated activity patterns similar to EEGs recorded in
behaving animals.

The Wilson and Bower 1992 piriform cortex model is distributed with GENESIS:
http://genesis-sim.org/project/genesis
It is located in the following directory:
./genesis-2.3/genesis/Scripts/piriform
and can be started with the command:
genesis Piriform.g
The below window should appear:
To use the simulator, press the simulate button. After a brief while
the simulation will end (see genesis prompt). Then select desired
displays with the interface, and click the capital Simulate button to
switch to playback mode. Click playback and the display windows will
be refreshed.
More information is also available in the GENESIS book.
