title: Fat2 and Lar Dance a Pas de Deux during Collective Cell Migration.
abstract: What coordinates the internal leading and trailing edges in collectively migrating cells is largely unknown. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Barlan et al. (2017) delineate a Fat2/Lar planar signaling pathway at the basal, motile cell-cell contacts of Drosophila egg chamber follicle cells.
