Is biophysical modelling in neuroscience dead?Note I do this all the time. Colleague suggested that however yes, it is dead, mainly due to the findings of Eve Marder et al: that neurons properties are massively degenerate. So no point in modelling various ion channel dynamics in detail.I have to admit this keeps me awake at night wondering if I should pack it all in and just boot up a convolutional neural network, like the rest of computational neuroscientists seem to be doing these days.
