Models of Neuron Activity

Models of neuron activity describe how neurons transmit signals in the brain. These models explain the process where neurons generate electrical impulses called action potentials, triggered when signals from other neurons reach a certain threshold. Once activated, the neuron sends an electrical spike down its axon to communicate with others. Different models, like the Hodgkin-Huxley or Integrate-and-Fire, provide mathematical ways to predict and analyze this behavior, helping scientists understand brain function, learning, and disorders by simulating how neurons respond to stimuli and how signals propagate through neural networks.
