Computing Transient Gating Charge Movement of Voltage-Dependent Ion Channels
The opening of voltage-gated sodium, potassium, and calcium ion channels has a steep relationship with voltage. In response to changes in the transmembrane voltage, structural move...

Neuronal ion-channel dynamics in silicon
Abstract— We present a simple silicon circuit for modelling voltagedependent ion channels found within neural cells, capturing both the gating particle’s sigmoidal activation (...
