The long-term goal of this proposal is to develop a strong Neuroscience Research Program (SRNP) at Hunter College by bringing together a strong core of Neuroscientists with similar research interests. It is envisaged that the theme of this Neuroscience Program will be "Repairing the Damaged Nervous System". A core of molecular/cellular Neurobiologists will be established, with similar, complementary interests in topics such as neuronal death and survival, axonal regeneration and guidance during development, and myelination, both during development and after disease/injury. By developing this theme in Neuroscience the strengths already at Hunter College will be built upon and expanded. The specific aims of this proposal are: Aim #1: To strengthen the general research theme of "Repairing the Damaged Nervous System" through 3 related projects, which in year 3 of the proposal will be submitted as R01s. It is of note that aspects of these projects are translational and related to health disparities Aim #2: To strengthen and expand technology and its sharing and to promote collaborations via a viral vector core, an electrophysiology core and shared models of regeneration. Aim #3: To develop a sub-theme of Neuroscience within the Biology Department of Hunter College. Funding of this proposal will also allow more outside speakers to be invited to give seminars on Neuroscience. A strong Neuroscience Research Program will also (a) expose undergraduates to Neuroscience at a very early stage of their career and so stimulate an interest in; neuroscience, (b) provide graduate students with more Neuroscience labs to choose from for their PhD research. New ideas would be stimulated and they would be exposed to a variety of state-of-the-art techniques and (c) attract strong post-doctoral fellows.

该提案的长期目标是通过汇集具有相似研究兴趣的强大核心神经科学家，在亨特学院发展一个强大的神经科学研究计划（SRNP）。预计本次神经科学项目的主题为“修复受损的神经系统”。将建立一个分子/细胞神经生物学家的核心，在诸如神经元死亡和存活，发育过程中的轴突再生和引导，以及发育过程中和疾病/损伤后的髓鞘形成等主题上具有相似的，互补的兴趣。通过在神经科学中发展这一主题，亨特学院的优势将得到巩固和扩展。本提案的具体目的是：目的1：通过3个相关项目加强“修复受损神经系统”的总体研究主题，在提案的第三年将作为R01s提交。值得注意的是，这些项目的某些方面是转化的，与健康差距有关。目标2：加强和扩大技术及其共享，并通过病毒载体核心、电生理学核心和共享再生模型促进合作。目标3：在亨特学院生物系内发展神经科学的子主题。这项提案的资金也将允许更多的外部演讲者被邀请来举办神经科学研讨会。一个强大的神经科学研究项目也将(A)让本科生在他们职业生涯的早期阶段接触神经科学，从而激发他们对；(b)为研究生提供更多的神经科学实验室供他们进行博士研究。新的想法将被激发，他们将接触到各种最先进的技术，(c)吸引强大的博士后研究员。
