How Do Electric Fields Coordinate Neuronal Migration and Maturation in the Developing Cortex?

During development the vast majority of cells that will later compose the mature cerebral cortex undergo extensive migration to reach their final position. In addition to intrinsically distinct migratory behaviors, cells encounter and respond to vastly different microenvironments. These range from a...
