A collaborative study in neuroscience, spearheaded by a research team of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), sheds light on new possibilities for treating central nervous system (CNS) injuries, as published in PNAS*. Through the discovery of a novel gene that regulates the regeneration of multiple types of CNS axons, researchers have achieved a significant stride towards repairing damaged neural networks.
