Biological Neuron Models Tutorial 1 Video 3 (Bonus)

Neuromatch Academy (NMA) is a massive, interactive, online summer school experience spanning from hands-on modeling experience to meta-science interpretation skills across just about everything that could reasonably be included in the label "computational neuroscience". We're a group of neuroscientists from around the globe who have run smaller, in-person summer schools in the past, but created NMA in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
