biophysics_fitting.setup_stim.setup_soma_step(cell, amplitude=None, delay=None, duration=None, dist=0)

Setup up a step current at the soma, or a given dist from the soma.

Parameters:

  • cell (Cell) – The cell object.

  • amplitude (float) – The amplitude of the step current.

  • delay (float) – The delay of the step current.

  • duration (float) – The duration of the step current.

  • dist (float) – The distance from the soma to the recording/injection site.

Returns:

None. Adds a step current pipette to the cell under the name ‘iclamp’.
