Using NEURON - Part II
Quickly scripting a grid-search for parameter tuning
Finding the right set of parameters is quite important in a lot of research - machine learning and computational neuroscience are two fields that I know of. I recently had to ascertain the optimal parameter set for my simulations too. I came up with a quick script to do it for me.
Using NEURON - Part I
Tinkering with OpenLayers and JS - Cajal - a hacked up neuroscience research map
I was tinkering with JavaScript and OpenLayers recently and came up with a web application that shows the different Neuroscience labs on the world and some summary information on them. Still needs a lot of data to be really useful, but it's a start.
Checking your LaTeX sources for spelling errors with Hunspell
Some tips and tricks for running simulations on a cluster
I use the cluster here at university to run my simulations in Nest. This post documents some tips and tricks I've come up with to make my cluster tasks easier.
My business card in LaTeX
I finally found the time to make myself a business card, and of course, I did it in LaTeX.
Calliope - helping you keep a diary - in LaTeX!
Most researchers keep a research journal where we note down our musings, notes and so on. While a paper diary is still quite common, I'd really prefer something on my laptop/computer. There are various applications out there for journal writing, but none of them really match up to good old LaTeX. I've written a simple script that makes it really easy to maintain a journal using LaTeX - Calliope.
