Neurons in Action 2 is the second version of a unique CD-ROM-based learning tool that combines hyperlinked text with NEURON simulations of laboratory experiments in neurophysiology. Version 2 features nine new tutorials introducing new channel types, single-channel simulations, and a redesigned interface. Neurons in Action s moving graphs provide insight into nerve function that is simply not possible with conventional, static text and figure presentations. Students discover how changing parameters such a neuronal geometry, ion concentrations, ion channel densities, and degree of myelination affects the generation of action potentials, synaptic potentials, and the spread or propagation of voltages within a neuron. For instructors, minimovies of NEURON simulations are provided for use in lectures.

Product description

Review

In this carefully designed book, John Moore and Ann Stuart demystify the basics of nerve function through a series of logical and well-written text-based tutorials with accompanying computer simulations... The computer-based format is ideal for professors and teaching assistants to use in the classroom. The inclusion of classic experimental papers on the CD also makes the experience somewhat of a history lesson as well... The entire simulation environment is contained on the CD, can be easily installed locally on a PC or Mac, and runs quickly using Mozilla Firefox... Overall, Moore and Stuart certainly have created a highly recommendable method for learning and teaching neurophysiology. Readers can now, from the comfort of their own homes, finally vanquish those former physiology demons in a fun and interactive manner and learn a bit of history, too. --Arjun V. Masurkar, Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine

A delightful introduction to the properties of various types of nervefibers. The simulations allow you to explore the effects of varying the axon diameter, degree of multinational (insulation) ,and other variables on nerve impulse initiation and propogation

easy to learn and easy to use.

I am a PHD of neuroscience now. Electrophysiology is one of my project, also the most difficult one. This book help me to understand the basic knowledge, and also open a door of how to make a simulation.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great if you can get it installed properly

I'm not commenting on the contents of the program because I gave up on trying to get the program to load. I'm not the most tech savvy, but I can install wireless routers and set up receivers to multiple zones with less difficulty than I've had installing this program. The CD incorrectly installs so that the user has to modify the folders in the C drive (using Windows). Tech support is condescending and far more technical in their explanations than customer friendliness should allow. I'm sure the content is great, but if you can't make a CD that installs itself properly without action on the part of the user, I'm out.

Wonderful program for teaching cellular neurophysiology. Unfortunately it has not been updated to be used with windows 10. Otherwise I would have rated it with 5 stars.
