public interface MuscleSpindle
- extends Node
A model of a muscle spindle receptor. A muscle spindle is embedded in
a skeletal muscle, and has both efferent and afferent innervation. It
receives excitatory drive from gamma motor neurons, which parallels the
excitation of the surrounding muscle. It has two neural Origins which
provide different information about stretch dynamics.
