 ====== The TIFGroup ======
-The TIFGroup is a [[NeuronGroup]] which implements a group of conductance based neurons with exponentially decaying AMPA and GABA conductances. The model has an absolute refractory period and tries to implement the in every aspect to implement the conductance based neuron model used in [[http://www.jneurosci.org/content/25/46/10786.short|Vogels and Abbott (2005)]].

It is used in at least one of our [[examples:sim_coba_benchmark|examples]].
 In contrast to other neuron models in Auryn like for example the [[IFGroup]] the ''evolve()'' function of the [[TIFGroup]] does not use vector operations, but is implemented in a simple for-loop. In the particular case of absolute refractoriness this allows to save to time in the evolve function. When a neuron is refractory the integration of membrane variables can be skipped.
 TIFGroup implements the problably simples and fastest neuron model that comes with Auryn.
