Facts (generated by robot; please edit if you find it inaccurate)

  • Neural Regeneration is considered one of the strategies for functional recovery after spinal cord injury.
  • We have shown that when an incision severs all stromal trunks, the neural regeneration is insufficient for functional recovery of corneal sensitivity at the center of an 8-mm keratotomy.
  • Another strategy for CNS neural regeneration is to create environments that encourage axonal growth.
  • The Third Asia Pacific Symposium on Neural Regeneration is planned for D e c e m b e r, 2002 in Perth, Australia, and program and registration information will be available in the June, 2002 issue of this n e w s l e t t e r.
  • We shall develop this technology in a model animal system (the freshwater crawfish) where the nervous system is experimentally accessible and 887 more importantly, in which neural regeneration is thought to occur by a novel mechanism (axonal fusion).
