Neurons in the adult nervous system lose their capability to regenerate their axon. And still, neurons are experts in axonal growth and extension at a very specific point in time: during development. This lecture will set forth how neurons initially polarize and form an axon. Exploiting the underlying mechanisms of this process enables activating neuronal regenerative programs under pathological conditions, such as spinal cord injury.
