# PYNEURORG
## Python Brain Organoid Simulator

**pyneurorg** is a Python module designed for simulating brain organoids, leveraging the power and flexibility of the Brian2 spiking neural network simulator. It provides a structured framework to model neurons and synapses within organoids, simulate their development and activity, and interact with them using simulated Microelectrode Arrays (MEAs) and calcium imaging techniques.

## Objective

The primary goal of `pyneurorg` is to provide researchers with an accessible, modular, and extensible in-silico platform to:
*   Model the formation and maturation of neural networks in brain organoids.
*   Simulate electrophysiological experiments, including MEA-based stimulation and recording.
*   Simulate calcium imaging experiments to observe network activity with high spatial resolution.
*   Investigate the effects of various stimuli, genetic modifications, or disease states on organoid network dynamics.
*   Facilitate the exploration of structural and synaptic plasticity mechanisms.

## Key Features

*   **Brian2-Powered Core:** Utilizes Brian2 for efficient and accurate simulation of spiking neuron and synapse models.
*   **Organoid Construction:** Flexible tools to create 3D organoid structures with defined neuronal populations and spatial arrangements.
*   **MEA Integration:**
    *   Model MEA geometries.
    *   Simulate targeted electrical stimulation of organoids via MEA electrodes.
    *   Record spike activity and Local Field Potential (LFP) proxies from MEA electrodes.
*   **Calcium Imaging Simulation:**
    *   Neuron models incorporating intracellular calcium dynamics.
    *   Simulation of fluorescent calcium indicator signals (e.g., GCaMP's ΔF/F).
*   **Network Plasticity:** (Module named `plasticity`)
    *   Implement common synaptic plasticity rules (e.g., STDP).
    *   Simulate structural plasticity for activity-dependent network formation and pruning.
*   **Electrophysiology Suite:**
    *   Generate complex stimulus patterns.
    *   Comprehensive data recording capabilities.
    *   Persistent data storage using SQLite for simulation results.
*   **Analysis & Visualization:**
    *   Tools for spike train analysis (firing rates, synchrony, bursting).
    *   Calcium trace analysis (ΔF/F, event detection).
    *   Functional network inference from spike or calcium activity.
    *   Plotting utilities for raster plots, LFP, calcium traces, and connectivity graphs.
*   **Modularity and Extensibility:** Designed to easily add new neuron models, synapse types, plasticity rules, or analysis techniques.
*   **Jupyter Notebook Examples:** A comprehensive suite of examples from basic setup to advanced simulations.

## Installation

There are two primary ways to install `pyneurorg`:

### Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended for users)

If `pyneurorg` is published on the Python Package Index (PyPI), you can install it directly using `pip`. This is the simplest method for end-users.

```bash
pip install pyneurorg
```
*(Note: This requires the package to be uploaded to PyPI by the developers.)*

### Option 2: Install from a local directory (For developers or from source)

If you have cloned the `pyneurorg` repository or have the source code:

1.  **Navigate to the top-level `pyneurorg` project directory in your terminal** (this is the directory that contains the `setup.py` file and the `src/` folder).
    ```bash
    cd path/to/your/pyneurorg_project_root
    ```

2.  **(Recommended) Create and activate a virtual environment:**
    ```bash
    python -m venv venv_pyneurorg
    source venv_pyneurorg/bin/activate  # On macOS/Linux
    # .\venv_pyneurorg\Scripts\activate  # On Windows
    ```

3.  **Install `pyneurorg` in editable mode and its dependencies:**
    The `-e` flag installs the package in "editable" mode. The `.` tells pip to look for `setup.py` in the current directory.
    ```bash
    pip install -e .
    ```
    This command reads `setup.py` (which should be configured for the `src/` layout) and installs dependencies listed in `setup.py` (which ideally reads them from `requirements.txt`).

    For a full development setup, including tools for testing, linting, and documentation:
    ```bash
    pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
    ```
    Or, if you have defined extras in your `setup.py` (e.g., `dev`, `docs`, `test`):
    ```bash
    pip install -e .[dev,docs,test]
   
    ```

## Project Directory Structure

The `pyneurorg` project is organized with a clear separation between the installable package code, documentation, examples, and tests. The main package code resides within the `src/` directory.

*   **`08_Implementing_Synaptic_Plasticity_STDP.ipynb`**: Explains how to incorporate Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity (STDP) rules to modify synaptic strengths based on activity.
*   **`09_Simulating_Structural_Plasticity_Network_Formation.ipynb`**: Covers the simulation of structural changes in the network, such as the activity-dependent formation and pruning of synapses.
*   **`10_Modeling_Calcium_Dynamics_and_Fluorescence_Imaging.ipynb`**: Details how to use neuron models that include intracellular calcium dynamics and simulate the corresponding fluorescence signals from indicators like GCaMP.
*   **`11_Data_Persistence_Saving_and_Loading_with_SQLite.ipynb`**: Demonstrates how to save simulation results (metadata, spikes, state variables) to an SQLite database and load them back for later analysis.
*   **`12_Inferring_Functional_Networks_from_Spike_Data.ipynb`**: Shows how to use analysis tools to infer functional connectivity maps from recorded spike train data (e.g., using STTC or cross-correlation).
*   **`13_Inferring_Functional_Networks_from_Calcium_Data.ipynb`**: Similar to the above, but demonstrates inferring functional networks from simulated calcium imaging data.
*   **`14_Advanced_Analysis_Bursting_and_Synchrony.ipynb`**: Covers more advanced analysis techniques, such as detecting bursting patterns in neuronal activity and quantifying network synchrony.
*   **`15_Example_Modeling_a_Simplified_Disease_Phenotype.ipynb`**: Provides an example of how `pyneurorg` can be used to model and investigate network alterations associated with a simplified disease phenotype.
