description: "Louis Édouard Lapicque was a French neuroscientist, socialist activist, antiboulangist, dreyfusard and freemason who was very influential in the early 20th century. One of his main contributions was to propose a model of neural input integration that later lead to the integrate-and-fire model of the neuro Today, this model of the neuron is still one of the most popular models in computational neuroscience for both cellular and neural networks studies, as well as in mathematical neuroscience because of its simplicity. A review article was published for the centenary of Lapicque's original 1907 paper, which also includes an English translation of it."
