DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Psychiatric neuroscience is an exciting and burgeoning field that has contributed to many recent major discoveries regarding the relationship between neurobiology and behavior. An enhanced commitment to this research in the next decade holds the promise of major advances in the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric illnesses such as depression, schizophrenia, and substance abuse disorders. The University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) has made a major commitment to this field of medicine over the past 8 years by the recruitment of a number of prominent scientists and clinicians engaged in psychiatric neuroscience research. UMMC proposes to build on this existing strength by establishing the Center for Research Excellence in Psychiatric Neuroscience (CREPN). The CREPN will create and maintain a quality research environment highly conducive to productive and clinically-oriented basic research in the psychiatric neurosciences. A major goal of CREPN will be to nurture the transition of junior faculty neuroscientists to independent researchers through a multi-disciplinary program of cutting-edge psychiatric neuroscience research. The CREPN will foster a diverse and nationally competitive environment that will facilitate research careers of junior faculty and will foster collaborations between psychiatric neuroscientists at UMMC and throughout Mississippi. These goals will be achieved by establishing formal mentoring relationships between junior psychiatric neuroscientists and senior faculty with established records in NIH-funded psychiatric neuroscience research. The CREPN will enhance the methodological sophistication of junior investigators by providing access to state-of-the-art core facilities including a core facility for behavioral studies, a cellular neuroimaging facility, an interactive web-based psychiatric neuroscience resource, and a collection of psychiatrically-characterized post-mortem brains. In addition, a neuroscientist that utilizes predominantly molecular biological approaches to psychiatric neuroscience research will be recruited to the Center. Overall, the establishment of the CREPN will enrich and diversify the academic environment in Mississippi for junior investigators in psychiatric neuroscience and thereby enhance their ability to compete nationally through traditional granting mechanisms.

描述（由申请人提供）：精神病学神经科学是一个令人兴奋且新兴的领域，它为最近关于神经生物学和行为之间关系的许多重大发现做出了贡献。未来十年对这项研究的进一步承诺有望在抑郁症、精神分裂症和药物滥用障碍等精神疾病的诊断和治疗方面取得重大进展。密西西比大学医学中心（UMMC）在过去8年中对这一医学领域做出了重大承诺，招募了一批从事精神神经科学研究的杰出科学家和临床医生。 UMMC 建议通过建立精神神经科学卓越研究中心 (CREPN) 来巩固现有优势。 CREPN 将创建和维护一个高质量的研究环境，非常有利于精神神经科学领域富有成效和面向临床的基础研究。 CREPN 的一个主要目标是通过尖端精神病学神经科学研究的多学科项目，培养初级神经科学家向独立研究人员的转变。 CREPN 将营造一个多元化的全国性竞争环境，促进初级教师的研究生涯，并促进 UMMC 和整个密西西比州精神科神经科学家之间的合作。这些目标将通过在初级精神科神经科学家和在 NIH 资助的精神科神经科学研究中拥有既定记录的高级教师之间建立正式的指导关系来实现。 CREPN 将通过提供最先进的核心设施（包括行为研究核心设施、细胞神经成像设施、基于网络的交互式精神病学神经科学资源以及具有精神病学特征的死后大脑集合）来提高初级研究人员的方法论复杂性。此外，该中心还将招募一名主要利用分子生物学方法进行精神神经科学研究的神经科学家。总体而言，CREPN 的建立将为密西西比州精神神经科学初级研究者提供丰富和多样化的学术环境，从而增强他们通过传统资助机制在全国竞争的能力。
