BrainCell User Manual — Version 4.0 Now AvailableWe’re excited to announce the release of the BrainCell User Manual v4.0, now available for download on the official Neuroalgebra website
.
This new edition provides a major update, reflecting the latest advances in BrainCell v1.0 and introducing expanded documentation for the newest simulation modules.
What’s New in Version 4.0Multi-cell simulation support — load and simulate multiple cells within a shared extracellular environment.
Dynamic extracellular diffusion — coupled ionic exchange between astrocytes and neurons in real time.
New biophysical mechanism panels — unified control of ion channels, transporters, and signaling pathways across all cells.
Inside–Out Diffusion module — full workflow for defining grids, setting diffusion parameters, and animating extracellular dynamics.
Integration with NSG (Neuroscience Gateway) — seamless access to HPC resources for large-scale simulations.
Testing Suite and Diagnostics — verify module integrity and ensure consistent performance across systems.
Updated figure legends, workflow diagrams, and parameter tables for improved clarity.
