Caption
A cultured neuronal network with directional intermodular coupling. (Left) Schematic diagram of rat cortical neurons cultured on a microfluidic device. (Centre) Microscopic photograph. Scale bar = 100 µm. (Right) Schematic diagram of directional coupling. By connecting the modules using asymmetric microchannels, the direction in which neurites are likely to penetrate is created, and directional coupling can be reproduced in that direction.
