“…Neuroscience researchers doing simulation and modeling often use Python as a programming medium (Antolík and Davison, 2013; Davison et al, 2009; Hines et al, 2009; Muller et al, 2015; Van Geit et al, 2016), whereas researchers on the experimental side often use MATLAB (Baek et al, 2016; Delorme and Makeig, 2004; Englitz et al, 2013; Felice et al, 2016; Lawhern et al, 2013; Schrouff et al, 2013; Shamlo et al, 2015; Vidaurre et al, 2011); there are exceptions to both as well as hybrids. On ModelDB as of February 28, 2016, there were 247 MATLAB models and 104 Python models hosted or linked to; NEURON models numbered 523 (McDougal et al, 2017).…”
