Both hodgkin and huxley have stated that, following the failed attempts with the mercury droplets, it was the other who made the suggestion that a fine capillary electrode might be inserted inside the nerve fibre fig. The hodgkin huxley model is based on the parallel thought of a simple circuit with batteries, resistors and capacitors. The hodgkinhuxley model, or conductancebased model, is a mathematical model that describes how action potentials in neurons are initiated and propagated. It is a set of nonlinear differential equations that approximates the electrical characteristics of excitable cells such as neurons and cardiac myocytes. They carried out an elegant series of electrophysiological experiments on the squid giant axon in the late 1940s and early 1950s. This page was last edited on 4 october 2019, at 21.
