项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The most compelling features of daily life include the ability to navigate through our environment and to communicate with each other. These functions are fundamental to survival, but are also among the first to encounter trouble in the diseased or aging nervous system. The University of Rochester holds a set of NIH-supported research programs dedicated to the sensory, motor, integrative, and cellular mechanisms underlying navigation and communication. Research ranges from molecular and genetic approaches to cellular neurophysiology in awake animals to human perception, and includes strong translational and clinical elements. These characteristics provide a compelling framework for our P-30, Center for Navigation and Communication Sciences (CNCS). New this past grant period, the CNCS is now operating at a steady-state that exceeds all expectations, largely due to committed leadership matched by a dedicated and engaged faculty and staff, cooperative and shared Core services, a strong advisory and quality assurance process, and an infrastructure and community that has proven attractive to new collaborations and new investigators. The CNCS allows investigators to efficiently share costly, time-consuming, essential but cumbersome, and innovative research services. The CNCS includes three Cores: 1) a Human Subjects Core to consolidate and coordinate the recruitment, screening, scheduling, and databasing of subjects across projects; 2) a Research Services Core that includes a Histology & Imaging Unit (tissue preparation, image analysis & reconstruction), an Electronic/Mechanical Shop (repair and construction of lab components and devices), an Animal Research Unit (mutant and knockout preparations, husbandry and screening), and a Proteomics Unit (specialized protein analysis); and 3) a Technology and Computation Core, including a Lab Technology Unit (automated lab systems for stimulus and behavioral control, data and analysis) and a Computation Unit to support PC and network operations, software library, web support, and staff training. Some service Units share support with the Department of Neurobiology & Anatomy, the Center for Visual Science (an NEI-P30), and two program projects (an NIA-P01 and an NINDS-P01). The CNCS exploits our inherently collegiate ecology and augments our lab capabilities through outstanding Core personnel and facilities in dedicated space. All Cores and Units operate efficiently and balance the combined goals of providing both needed though sometimes-mundane services as well as novel and innovative solutions that transform into tomorrow's capabilities. This ensures high-quality, efficient, and diverse services to all, in a robust infrastructure that enriches the productivity of our research, promotes collaborations among investigators, attracts new faculty and students to our research mission, facilitates further institutional support, and ultimately contributes to the health of the community and the nation.

描述（由申请人提供）：日常生活中最引人注目的特征包括在我们的环境中导航和相互交流的能力。这些功能是生存的基础，但也是患病或老化的神经系统中最先遇到麻烦的功能之一。罗切斯特大学拥有一套NIH支持的研究计划，致力于导航和通信的感觉，运动，整合和细胞机制。研究范围从分子和遗传方法到清醒动物的细胞神经生理学到人类感知，包括强大的翻译和临床元素。这些特征为我们的P-30导航和通信科学中心（CNCS）提供了一个引人注目的框架。新的过去的补助金期间，CNCS现在运行在一个稳定的状态，超出了所有的预期，主要是由于致力于领导与敬业和敬业的教职员工，合作和共享的核心服务，强大的咨询和质量保证过程相匹配，以及基础设施和社区已被证明对新的合作和新的调查人员有吸引力。 CNCS使研究人员能够有效地共享昂贵，耗时，必要但繁琐的创新研究服务。CNCS包括三个核心：1）人类受试者核心，以巩固和协调跨项目受试者的招募、筛选、时间安排和数据库; 2）研究服务核心，包括组织学和成像单元（组织制备、图像分析和重建），电子/机械车间（实验室部件和设备的维修和建造），动物研究单位（突变体和敲除制备、饲养和筛选）和蛋白质组学单位（专业蛋白质分析）;以及3）技术和计算核心，包括实验室技术单元（用于刺激和行为控制、数据和分析的自动化实验室系统）和一个支持PC和网络操作、软件库、网络支持和员工培训的计算单元。一些服务单位与神经生物学与解剖学系，视觉科学中心（NEI-P30）和两个计划项目（NIA-P01和NINDS-P01）共享支持。CNCS利用我们固有的学院生态，并通过在专用空间中的优秀核心人员和设施增强我们的实验室能力。所有核心和单元都高效运行，并平衡了提供所需但有时平凡的服务以及转变为未来能力的新颖和创新解决方案的综合目标。这确保了向所有人提供高质量，高效和多样化的服务，在一个强大的基础设施中，丰富了我们的研究生产力，促进了研究人员之间的合作，吸引了新的教师和学生到我们的研究使命，促进了进一步的机构支持，并最终有助于社区和国家的健康。
