For each feature (or mean of feature), the median and interquartile range are given. Org, organized recordings (target, spiral, or straight wave); Dis, disorganized activity (wavelets); IQ, interquartile; Myo, cultures of myocytes; Co, cocultures of myocytes and neurons.
Features that differ significantly between the respective groups.
