Optogenetics enables real-time spatiotemporal control over spiral wave dynamics in an excitable cardiac system

Propagation of non-linear waves is key to the functioning of diverse biological systems. Such waves can organize into spirals, rotating around a core, whose properties determine the overall wave dynamics. Theoretically, manipulation of a spiral wave core should lead to full spatiotemporal control ov...
