Speaking Out for the Blind Episode 380- Mammals Restoring Vision

Popular Mechanics says that mammals may not have ocular regeneration superpowers. But a new study shows that nature might have a couple of tricks up its sleeve. Joining me to talk about the recent study on restoring vision in humans is Athanasios (Thanasis) Alexandris. Thanasis is the study’s lead author and works for Johns Hopkins University.  For more info related to this week’s show, go to: https://speakingoutfortheblind.weebly.com/list-of-episodes-and-show-news/for-more-information-episode-380-mammals-restoring-vision Ways to Connect to Speaking Out for the Blind  Amazon Alexa enabled device (RECOMMENDED) “Alexa, Ask ACB Media to play Media 1”.
