The FitzHugh-Nagumo system describes the electrochemical behaviors in nerve fiber and cardiac myocytes. It captures the mathematical properties of excitation and propagation in these tissues and has become a favorite model in excitable media. We will discuss some aspects of recent studies of this system.
