The '''Hodgkin–Huxley model''', or '''conductance-based model''', is a [[mathematical model]] that describes how [[action potential]]s in [[neuron]]s are initiated and propagated. It is a set of [[nonlinear]] [[differential equation]]s that approximates the electrical characteristics of excitable cells such as neurons and [[cardiac muscle|cardiac myocytes]]. It is a continuous-time [[dynamical system]]. | The '''Hodgkin–Huxley model''', or '''conductance-based model''', is a [[mathematical model]] that describes how [[action potential]]s in [[neuron]]s are initiated and propagated.
