Computational modeling by integrating compartmental neural technique and detailed kinetic description of pharmacological modulation of transmitter – receptor interaction is offered as a method to test the electrophysiological and behavioral effects of putative drugs. Even more, an inverse method is suggested as a method for controlling a neural system to realize a prescribed temporal pattern. Generation and pharamcological modulation of theta rhytm related to anxiety is analyzed. Integrative modeling might help to find positive allosteric modulators of GABA
