Dear NEST Users & Developers! I would like to invite you to our next fortnightly Open NEST Developer Video Conference today *Monday January 26, at 11:30 CET (UTC+0100).* As usual, in the Project team round, a contact person of each team will give a short statement summarizing ongoing and planned work in the team and highlight cross-cutting points that need discussion among the teams. The remainder of the meeting we would go into a more in-depth discussion of topics that came up on the mailing list or that are suggested by the teams. Feel free to join the meeting also if it’s just to bring your own quick questions for direct discussion in the in-depth section.

Please merge master into open PRs to avoid problems with NumPy in the testsuite
by Hans Ekkehard Plesser 08 Jan '26

08 Jan '26

Hi! If you have any open PRs against NEST, please merge current master into them to benefit from the recently merged #3717 (thanks to thomaskroi1996!), which replaces a long-deprecated and now removed NumPy call with its modern counterpart. Without this, tests will currently fail under macOS and are expected to fail on Linux as well once that switches to NumPy 2.4.

Gap junction implementation using NESTML on aeif_cond_beta_neuron model
by Beatrice Baldi 23 Dec '25

23 Dec '25

Hello everyone, I'm writing to ask for advice on how to correctly implement electrical synapses in a custom NESTML neuron model (aeif_cond_beta_nestml). I have attached the relevant NESTML and Python files used to build and install the aeif_cond_beta neuron model with gap junctions enabled. I ran a trial using the "Gap Junctions: Inhibitory network example" script available on the nest website, changing the neuron model to my aeif_cond_beta_nestml, and it does not seem to implement the gap junctions correctly, as changing parameters like gap weight does synchronise the network or influence the output. For reference, I am using NEST version 3.9.0. If you had any advice on how to correctly implement gap junctions using NESTML, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. Best regards, Beatrice

simulation control from a gui
by Peter Mason 03 Nov '25

03 Nov '25

I have a GUI to control and analyse the data from the simulation and it's parameters which uses shared memory to manage the state of the simulation and pass the data to the recipients. It seemed like a good idea to have a simulation restart button to normalise the start position and eventually have more than a single independent simulation. This would require the simulation to run independently of the GUI which up to this point it did not. To implement this I tried running the simulation code in a separate thread having forgotten that Nest is not tread safe and it crashed. The simulation code including Nest currently runs in multiple processes. Before attempting to do it myself i asked CoPilot to produce the code attached which I do not understand in detail but this is normal because it uses python features of which I have no knowledge. Up to now. The code runs apart from some 'hopefully simple' details of the button control lost in this conversion Is this application of interest? Is there a standard way to do this?

Hi Camilo, Thanks a lot for your help ... but problem remains. Now I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "eprop_supervised_regression_handwriting_bsshslm_2020.py", line 545, in <module> readout_signal = readout_signal.reshape((readout_signal[0], n_iter, batch_size, steps["sequence"])) #readout_signal = readout_signal.reshape((n_out, n_iter, batch_size, steps["sequence"])) TypeError: only integer scalar arrays can be converted to a scalar index Xavier ________________________________ From: Camilo Jara Do Nascimento <C.Jara-Do-Nascimento(a)sussex.ac.uk> Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2025 4:56 PM To: NEST User Mailing List <users(a)nest-simulator.org>; Xavier Otazu Porter <xotazu(a)cvc.uab.cat> Subject: Re: [NEST Users] MPI problem with e-prop tutorials Hi Xavier, The problem I see is that the readout first dimension is based on the n_out, and when using mpi to parallelizing it will use this first dimension to parallelize your instances. I quickly fixed it by changing the first dimension to be readout_signal.shape[0] since its already defined before by using the "idc" indexes. readout_signal = readout_signal.reshape((readout_signal.shape[0], n_iter, batch_size, steps["sequence"])) Hope this helps.

I do not know whether it is an e-prop C++ implementation problem or a Python tutorial code problem (in some cases, but not all of them, it looks like the last one). I have two files (hostfile_orig_1 and hostfile_orig_2) to define in what nodes of the cluster to execute the program. The content of these files is: hostfile_orig_1: node0 slots=1 node1 slots=1 hostfile_orig_2: node0 slots=2 node0 slots=2 The 'slots' key tells how many (mpi) processes can be executed on a particular node. Depending on the number of processes, the errors are a bit different. In all the following examples, I use "total_num_virtual_procs": 2 on line 173 of tutorial file.
