+LFPy is a Python module for simulation of extracellular electrical potentials evoked 
+by activity of multi-compartment model neurons.
+LFPy runs on top of the NEURON-simulator, using the Python interface that is included (\url{http://www.neuron.yale.edu}).
+
+LFPy provides:
+\begin{itemize}[nolistsep, topsep=0em, leftmargin=1pc]
+\item A forward modelling scheme for calculating extracellular potentials from compartmental membrane currents in an infinite homogenous linear extracellular medium.
+\item Simple to use Python-classes for setting up the cells, synapses and recording electrodes.
+\item Easy to use scripting capabilities thanks to NEURON and the Python programming environment.
+\item Functionality to employ or specify biophysically detailed model neurons, add stimulus, and perform simultaneous simulation of the model cell responses and extracellular potentials.
+\item Support for common formats for reconstructed neuronal morphologies, allowing use of publicly available 3D-reconstructions (e.g., \url{http://www.neuromorpho.org}). 
+\end{itemize}
