 rative conditions\, some neurons are more affected or degenerate earlier t
 han others\, this is a phenomenon called selective vulnerability. So why d
 o some neurons die\, while others are resilient to the same injury or cond
 ition? Our lab uses the retina as an approachable system to investigate th
 e cellular mechanisms that underlie type-specific resilience to axonal dam
 age. I will introduce how we have been using single-cell genomic approache
 s to parse how different retinal cell types are affected by injury and how
  they respond to different interventions. Our work reveals endogenous mech
 anisms that support neuronal survival and axon growth\, which can be lever
 aged to develop novel neuroprotective and regenerative treatments.\n
