Editing Adult neurogenesis (section)

=== Chick ===
Though avians have been used primarily to study early embryonic development, in recent decades the developing [[Chicken|chick]] has played a critical role in the examination of neurogenesis and regeneration as the young chick is capable of neuronal-turnover at a young age, but loses the neurogenerative capacity into adulthood.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Fischer|first=Andy J.|date=March 2005|title=Neural regeneration in the chick retina|journal=Progress in Retinal and Eye Research|volume=24|issue=2|pages=161–182|doi=10.1016/j.preteyeres.2004.07.003|issn=1350-9462|pmid=15610972|s2cid=43652371}}</ref> The loss of neuroregenerative ability over maturation has allowed investigators to further examine genetic regulators of neurogenesis.
