The proneural wave in the Drosophila optic lobe is driven by an excitable reaction-diffusion mechanism
In living organisms, self-organised waves of signalling activity propagate spatiotemporal information within tissues. During the development of the largest component of the visual processing centre of the Drosophila brain, a travelling wave of proneural gene expression initiates neurogenesis in the...
