The C++ code of this repository gave rise to the results presented in :
nicotine_program
The C++ code allows to simulate nicotine exposures to the
VTA. One can loop over different applied nicotine (Nic loop) concentrations, different
constant cholinergic input levels (ACh loop) and different constant
glutamatergic input levels (Glu loop). The VTA and nAChR models are
specified in the motif.cpp
file.
The code can be complied using the g++ complier with the make
command using the Makefile
. Compliation will generate the executable program nicotine
.
Execution of the program requires the par_nicotine.par
file in the same directory which contains and specifies all model parameters.
