San Diego Skeletal Muscle Research Center

圣地亚哥骨骼肌研究中心（SDMRC）由21名科学家组成，他们来自5个研究机构和9个学术部门。SDMRC的使命是双重的：(1)为研究人员提供有效的基础设施和环境，以高效和经济的方式加速他们的前沿研究；(2)提供一个组织结构，加强成员之间的沟通，并为圣地亚哥社区提供教育和培训。该中心的建立将在比目前更正式的基础上整合、教育和协同各实验室。具体来说，该中心将通过创建三个核心：表型、成像和高通量细胞分析，提供一种机制，以最小的时间和金钱开销快速执行所有研究人员所需的常见检测。这将自动提高每个单独的程序，因为最先进的方法将立即提供给会员。获得新方法无疑会伴随着实验数据产生新的想法。SDMRC将提高效率（因为建立了协作和共享信息的机制）和生产力（因为研究通常是多学科的），这将使个人在他们的个人研究项目中产生比孤立的更大的影响。

The San Diego Skeletal Muscle Research Center (SDMRC) is composed of 21 scientists who span five research institutions and nine academic Departments. The mission of the SDMRC is twofold: (1) to provide investigators with an effective infrastructure and environment to accelerate their cutting-edge research in an efficient and cost-effective manner, and (2) to provide an organizational structure that enhances communication amongst members and provides education and training for the San Diego community. The creation of this Center will integrate, educate and synergize laboratories on a more formalized basis than currently exists. Specifically, this Center will provide a mechanism for rapidly performing common assays needed by all investigators with minimal overhead in terms of time and money by creating three Cores: Phenotyping, Imaging, and High Throughput Cell Analysis. This will automatically enhance each of the individual programs since state-of-the-art methods will instantly become available to members. Access to new methods will undoubtedly spawn new ideas that accompany the experimental data. SDMRC will increase efficiency (since a mechanism is in place to collaborate and share information) and productivity (since studies will be routinely multidisciplinary) that will enable individuals to have a larger impact in their individual research programs than would be possible in isolation.
