Spiral Ganglion Neurons (green) innervating the mouse organ of Corti must navigate a complex field of cochlear supporting cells (magenta) before reaching their inner and outer hair cell targets. Supporting cells act as trailblazes to provide directional cues that direct peripheral axons of Type II Spiral Ganglion Neurons to turn towards the cochlear base thereby coordinating innervation with cochlear tonotopy.
