DESCRIPTION:This seminar is part of the Tissue Systems seminar series.   
                                                                         
                                                                         
                               Neurons are the cellular basis of the circ
 uits of our nervous system that allow us to sense the environment\, cont
 rol our muscles and\, sometimes\, even to think. In these circuits\, neu
 rons fulfill very different functions at different part of the cells\, i
 ncluding signal reception\, integration and propagation. This is possibl
 e because neurons have a high degree of asymmetry (or polarity). We want
  to understand how neurons develop their polarity. How do neurons genera
 te an axon? While this is an interesting question by itself\, answers wi
 ll also allow us to reactivate the polarity program under pathological c
 onditions\, such as a spinal injury\, to induce axon regeneration.
