Cover Story: Migraine aura consists of sensory hallucinations that are thought to result from a tsunami-like wave of neural activity that spreads through the cortex. Reaction diffusion equations can model the hallucinations, depending on the balance between excitation and inhibition. This review shows how these models can provide a theoretical framework to relate mechanisms of excitability to empirical evidence from electrophysiological recordings. View this paper
