Geometry shapes propagation: assessing the presence and absence of cortical symmetries through a computational model of cortical spreading depression

Cortical spreading depression (CSD), a depolarization wave which originates in the visual cortex and travels towards the frontal lobe, has been suggested to be one neural correlate of aura migraine. To the date, little is known about the mechanisms which can trigger or stop aura migraine. Here, to s...
