This $397,500 Project Grant awarded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the Extramural Research Programs in the Neurosciences and Neurological Disorders (CFDA 93.853) program will support research to study fundamental principles connecting neurodevelopmental processes to the functional organization of neural circuits, with the goal of enabling network-scale regeneration.

The research, conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), will systematically ablate genetically defined neural subnetworks in a new animal model to determine their regenerative capabilities, investigate the origins and migration patterns of newborn neurons, and examine the molecular mechanisms by which network damage is sensed and regenerative programs are initiated. The findings are expected to provide insights into the rules that connect injury sensing, cell migration, and functional integration to enable regeneration at the systems level.
