**How to cite the V1 models:**

Development of BMTK and SONATA was driven to a large degree by our efforts to model cortical circuits. Models of the mouse primary visual cortex (area V1) are `publicly available here <https://portal.brain-map.org/explore/models/mv1-all-layers>`_ and should be cited as follows:
