The issues I am talking about are all TA2, so the breakdown doesn't help. It's just a completely different technology readiness level.
Edit: Just looked at the video. There is ONE THIRD OF A SLIDE described for less than 90 seconds (28:27) that addresses the issues I raise. They just list random things people might try like "stem cells". Just bizarre
I have downgraded my respect for ARPA-H. Hopefully this is just some fluke to have gotten approved.
- CuriousCosmic 2y agoI was linking the proposers day video not as a direct answer but rather to try and show how that specific aspect is connected to all the other research going on on this topic as well. And they even mentioned in that video that TA2 is the particularly hard problem. And to address your question I linked the teaming page which does go into what the teams are pursuing to solve that problem. One of the teams addressing the specific issue you brought up is the USC team. They are developing electric field stimulus systems to drive regeneration of optic nerves along with real time imaging/monitoring equipment so that they can control said stimulus to drive regeneration along the paths they want. TA2 is very big/broad and a lot of different teams are taking quite different approaches at how to address aspects of TA2.
