How to list NEURON section properties/information?

In NEURON simulator, is there a way to list properties of a section other than iterating over each property individually?

If you are using the NEURON GUI, you could also find section properties in the NEURON's control menu:

Tools-> Model View

This will open a ModelView window which has section and segment details such as:

  • Type of cells: real cells/ artificial cells
  • NetCon objects
  • LinearMechanisms objects
  • Density Mechanisms
  • Point Processes

If you click on each property, a drop-down menu appears showing the details of the property selected

You could also view the structure of the model if you click on the cell type (real/artificial cells).

There is the psection() method. Once the section of interest is push()ed. Typing psection() or, from Python, h.psection(sec=your_section) will produce the following example result:

>>> h.psection(sec=h.Granule[0].soma)

Granule[0].soma { nseg=1  L=8  Ra=80
    /*location 0 attached to cell 5*/
    /* First segment only */
    insert morphology { diam=8}
    insert capacitance { cm=4}
    insert pas { g_pas=0 e_pas=-65}
    insert kamt { gbar_kamt=0}
    insert nax { sh_nax=15 gbar_nax=0}
    insert na_ion { ena=60}
    insert kdrmt { gbar_kdrmt=0}
    insert k_ion { ek=-90}
    insert Exp2Syn { tau1=5 tau2=50 e=0}
    insert IClamp { del=50 dur=200 amp=0.09}
}
