Description
We should maybe add, expand, and interlink Glossary definitions throughout the textbook. The original Glossary page from the Developer-website is pasted below (and will be removed soon from the Developer-website):
Glossary
The Glossary provides short definitions of HNN-specific vocabulary and
general computational neuroscience concepts. If you think a term is
missing, please consider creating a new issue or opening a pull request
to add it.
:sorted:
drive
An exogenous source of excitatory action potentials that perturbs
the cortical column network.
gid
The "global" cell ID. A gid is assigned to each cell in the
network as well as artificial drive cells. Global refers to the fact
that the cell ID is unique even if the simulation is split across
cores.
distal
Anatomical location that is further away from the soma. Distal
drives refer to extrinsic connections to the distal dendrites of the
cortical column, which often originate from indirect thalamic
nuclei, as well as other cortical regions.
proximal
Anatomical location that is closer to the soma. Proximal drives
refer to extrinsic connections to the proximal dendrites of the
cortical column, which often originate from direct thalamic nuclei.
