After injury some RGCs survive but do they thrive? In this collaboration with Jonathan Demb's lab (Yale), we looked into the physiology of resilient RGCs after axon injury. Their visual responses largely remain intact but they exhibit reduced intrinsic excitability, coincident with AIS disassembly.
