About Neuronify
Neuronify is an educational tool meant to create intuition for how neurons and neural networks behave. You can use it to combine neurons with different connections, just like the ones we have in our brain, and explore how changes on single cells lead to behavioral changes in important networks.
To build and explore neural networks, you drag neurons and measurement devices onto the screen. In addition, the app comes with several ready-made simulations for inspiration.
We aim to provide a low entry point to simulation-based neuroscience. Most students won't get the opportunity to create their own neural simulator. With Neuronify, these students are still able to build up their intuition by experimenting with neural phenomena.
Neuronify is based on an integrate-and-fire model of neurons. This is one of the simplest models of neurons that exist. It focuses on the spike timing of a neuron and ignores the details of the action potential dynamics. These neurons are modeled as simple RC circuits. When the membrane potential is above a certain threshold, a spike is generated and the voltage is reset to its resting potential. This spike then signals other neurons through its synapses.

Really great for getting a hands on experience in network connectivity. It definitely makes it easy to see why circuits work the way they do, while also providing a good deal of fun tinkering with a network. I hope future updates allow for more dynamic interactions between individual nodes. It'd be really cool if there was a way to make a plastic circuit that could model LTP/LTD!

This app is easy enough to play around with but also seems to be advanced enough to do a lot more. It would be nice if there was an option to copy and paste small networks, and if the grid system were a bit easier to work with.

Hey, the game seems to be pretty nice, but unfortunately the voltmeter isn't working, there is just no plot on it even in the tutorials, though neurons are being activated by electricity source. I think the app would be much better with all its functions enabled...

Your understanding of how the neural networks function reaches a new level with this app that allows you to visualize the process. Ver insightful . Loved it.

Doesn't work. First time it shows a blank screen, if I reopen it says fatal error. Bummer, I really wanted to try this

It's not clear how to remove connections between neurons.

When building your own neural networks it would help to be able to submit the network for review or analysis. The tutorials show some basic networks. But is there any profit in playing with custom networks? For us amateurs we could only discern uninteresting networks from interesting networks with feedback.

I am a neurologist and I love this app. It is perfect for showing students or patients how things work. The interface is lovely. All apps should be this good!

Tutorials apear empty, the only usable elements are comments and touch sensor. No neurons to play :(. App seems promising, can't wait!
