What does this research mean for the field?

The widely accepted Roy and Sherrington hypothesis of metabolic neurovascular coupling is insufficient to explain cerebral blood flow regulation, and the perivascular nerve supply may instead serve as an alternative control system for rapid parallel changes in flow and neuronal activity.
