Extracellular fields for a three-dimensional network of cells using NEURON (Appukuttan et al 2017)

" ... In the present work, we demonstrate a technique to couple the extracellular fields of individual cells within the NEURON simulation environment. The existing features of the simulator are extended by explicitly defining current balance equations, resulting in the coupling of the extracellular fields of adjacent cells. ..."
