Trying to Simulate a Nerve!

Hello all!

I work for a company that creates realistic anatomical models for military training. We are currently working on a fasciotomy trainer which includes the superficial peroneal nerve. I was hoping I could pick your brains (well those of you who have taken gross anatomy) on what materials you think might simulate a nerve well? I have also taken gross anatomy, but I seem to be a little stumped on this one and would appreciate serious input!

Make sure the linguini is over cooked so it's mushy, not al dente.

In real life they're more al dente.

A nerve stimulator might do the trick (if I had to make a wild guess).
