Abstract
Injury to the adult mammalian CNS can have devastating consequences. However, great strides have been made in our understanding of the barriers to regeneration and the mechanisms that enable restoration of function. Such advances have opened up a range of therapeutic avenues that are being explored, raising new hopes for the treatment of CNS injury.
