Mammals Can Be Stimulated To Regrow Damaged Inner Retina Nerve Cells, University of Washington Study

Technology Review (MIT) -- Cells in the retina of mice can be coaxed to create new neurons following an injury, according to new research from the University of Washington. This is the most definitive demonstration to date that such regeneration is possible, given the right cues, for a specific type of neuron in the inner retina of a mammal.
