TITLE ihsgc-apical.mod - Spiral Ganglion Cell Ih current for Apical Region

COMMENT
Ih for Spiral ganglion cells.
Kinetcs are based on average fits to mouse SGCs,
This model is for just the apical cell group.
Data used to establish the kinetic parameters were collected by
Qing Liu and Robin Davis (Rutgers).
Data were taken at room temperature.
Kinetic parameters were extracted by curve fitting for fast and
slow components from activation and deactivation (using
the program Ihfit4b.py).

Implementation by Paul B. Manis, January-April, 2012.
Revised December 2013, January 2014.
        # of parameters in the fit were decreased (tau uses one v and scale factor).
Parameters are shown in the tables in Liu et al., JARO 2014.

March 13, 2014: Corrected version with boltzmax for slow component
July 2014: made threadsafe, changed solver

Note: vshift parameter is nominally 0. This parameter can
shift the entire activation and rate curves, keeping them
in register for each component of the conductance.
