🚨Paper Alert! Check out our latest work, now published in @FrontiersNeuroscience. We show how this remarkable fish surprisingly displays mammalian-like injury responses after optic nerve transection. 🔗 doi.org/10.3389/fnin... @JulieDeSchutter @StevenBergmans @lucamasin.bsky.social @AnyiZhang

Frontiers | Fibrotic scarring prevents optic nerve regeneration despite preserved axonal growth potential in adult killifish

Adult mammals exhibit limited regenerative capacity in the central nervous system (CNS), leading to irreversible deficits following injury or disease. Effect...

Frontiers | Differential retinal ganglion cell resilience to optic nerve injury across vertebrate species

Optic neuropathies comprise a diverse group of disorders that ultimately lead to retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. Despite varying etiologies, these ...
