If you're seeing your #NEST simulator builds fail recently, it's because of a new #Cython release:

https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/issues/3495

Workaround: fix `cython<3.1.0` for the moment (until new NEST releases with the fix are made)

Latest Cython release breaks NEST build · Issue #3495 · nest/nest-simulator

Cython 3.1.0 was released on 2025-05-08. It deprecates the "long" data type in favour of "int" (see https://cython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/src/changes.html). This results in the following error du...

🧠 New #preprint! Confavreux et al. use meta-learning to uncover thousands of diverse, local #plasticity rule quadruplets that stabilize #RecurrentSpikingNetworks — and incidentally support #memory functions like novelty detection, replay, & contextual prediction. A striking case of function emerging from stability.

🧠 The #Italian Network of #ComputationalNeuroscience announced its 2025 conference:

📍 Palazzo della Salute, Padova, Italy 🇮🇹
📅 September 22–24, 2025
⏰ Submission deadline: June 7, 2025

In the next version, 0.6.6, all component classes in the #libNeuroML #Python API gain a quick method to list the parameters of their model objects. So, if you load a #NeuroML file/model, you can easily print the parameters of the different model entities. See the test in the pull request for a quick example:

A few weeks ago, I shared a differential equations tutorial for beginners, written from the perspective of a neuroscientist who's had to grapple with the computational part. Following up on that, I've now tackled the first real beast encountered by most computational neuroscience students: the Hodgkin-Huxley model.

While remaining incredibly elegant to this day, this model is also a mathematically dense system of equations that can overwhelm and discourage beginners, especially those with non-mathematical backgrounds. Similar to the first tutorial, I've tried to build intuition step-by-step, starting with a simple RC circuit, layering in Na⁺ and K⁺ channels, and ending with the full spike-generation story.

Feedback is welcome, especially from fellow non-math converts.

Think neurons are simple? Think again. In this article, we tackle the Hodgkin-Huxley model from the ground up and live to tell the tale (barely).
