The passage around this formula
where m , h , and n are voltage- and time-dependent gating variables each obeying their own first-order kinetics. This is worth stating in full because it is the paradigm the rest of the field either extends or reacts against: a biophysical mechanism, expressed as a dynamical system, fit to directly measured…
