This model simulates the effects of CRH on sharp waves in a rat CA1/CA3 model. It uses the frequency of the sharp waves as an output of the network.

It was written by Conor D Cox
The figures were generated by serverizing the code (not included here for simplicity)
Pyramidal cells were modelled by the two-compartment Pinsky-Rinzel model (Pinsky & Rinzel, 1994) adapted from ModelDB 
accession no 35358; Migliore et al, 2003) which was written in Neuron.
Interneurons were modelled on the single-compartment Wang-Buzsaki model (Wang & Buzsaki, 1996) found on the Brian simulator website.
This model is an implementation of:

complexes through a CA3-CA1 network model with chemical synapses. Hippocampus 22, 995-1017.

Code should be set in high RAM mode. the StateMonitors use approx 1 GB of RAM per second of simulation.
These lines can be commented in and out but related figures should also be turned off.
