In this paper, a new auxiliary equation method is used to find exact travelling wave solutions to the (1+1)-dimensional KdV equation. Some exact travelling wave solutions with parameters have been obtained, which cover the existing solutions. Compared to other methods, the presented method is more direct, more concise, more effective, and easier for calculations. In addition, it can be used to solve other nonlinear evolution equations in mathematical physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Loss of cone function in the central retina is a pivotal event in the development of severe vision impairment for many prevalent blinding diseases. Complete achromatopsia is a genetic defect resulting in cone vision loss in 1 in 30,000 individuals. Using adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy, we show that it is possible to target cones and rescue both the cone-mediated electroretinogram response and visual acuity in the Gnat2 cpfl3 mouse model of achromatopsia.
