项目摘要

We propose renewal of our COBRE at NDSU. Our research focus is Visual and Cognitive Neuroscience. We describe four thematically Interrelated primary projects directed by promising junior and senior investigators, which examine the neural mechanisms and functional significance of visual perception, visual attention, visual cognition and action. Our Specific Aims are: SPECIFIC AIM #1: To develop successful, independent, self-sustaining research projects for COBRE Project Directors to enable future success in obtaining R01 funding. This aim will be accomplished by obtaining COBRE support for thematically articulated research projects and by establishing an Administrative Core consisting of the PI/PD, a two-member Internal Advisory Committee, a three-member External Advisory Committee, as well as a group of five Project Mentors. SPECIFIC AIM #2: To enhance research infrastructure at NDSU through maintenance of multiuser Core laboratory facilities. The projects of the COBRE utilize state-of-the-art EEG neuroimaging to measure relationships between the structure and function of the nervous system and the behavior it governs. We will continue to enhance research infrastructure by supporting the Core laboratory for High-Density EEG, staffed by a full-time EEG laboratory technician and two full-time computer programmers. SPECIFIC AIM #3: To expand NDSU's research capability in visual and cognitive neuroscience by recruiting an additional faculty member with research expertise in translational neuroscience. We propose to recruit a visual or cognitive neuroscientist during the first year of the COBRE project. This new recruit will augment our critical mass of research talent that will sustain the Center beyond the initial years of COBRE support. This newly recruited faculty member will be eligible for CVCN support through a Pilot Project mechanism. SPECIFIC AIM #4: To establish a nationally recognized Center for Visual and Cognitive Neuroscience at NDSU. The realization of Specific Aims 1-3 will create a center of research excellence at NDSU which is guaranteed to attract additional quality faculty, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students committed to cutting-edge research in visual and cognitive neuroscience. The NDSU Center for Visual and Cognitive Neuroscience will be competitive for Institutional Training Grants (T32), Research Project Grants (R01), and Infrastructure Development Grants (R24) which will sustain the Center beyond the initial years of support.

我们建议更新 NDSU 的 COBRE。我们的研究重点是视觉和认知神经科学。我们描述了由有前途的初级和高级研究人员指导的四个主题相互关联的主要项目，这些项目研究视觉感知、视觉注意力、视觉认知和行动的神经机制和功能意义。我们的具体目标是：具体目标#1：为 COBRE 项目总监开发成功、独立、自我维持的研究项目，以便未来成功获得 R01 资金。这一目标将通过获得 COBRE 对主题明确的研究项目的支持以及建立一个由 PI/PD、一个由两名成员组成的内部咨询委员会、一个由三名成员组成的外部咨询委员会以及一个由五名项目导师组成的小组组成的行政核心来实现。具体目标#2：通过维护多用户核心实验室设施来加强 NDSU 的研究基础设施。 COBRE 的项目利用最先进的脑电图神经影像来测量神经系统的结构和功能及其控制的行为之间的关系。我们将继续加强研究基础设施，支持高密度脑电图核心实验室，该实验室配备一名全职脑电图实验室技术人员和两名全职计算机程序员。具体目标#3：通过招募一名具有转化神经科学研究专业知识的额外教员来扩大 NDSU 在视觉和认知神经科学方面的研究能力。我们建议在 COBRE 项目的第一年招募一名视觉或认知神经科学家。这位新招募的人员将增加我们关键的研究人才数量，从而使该中心在 COBRE 支持的最初几年之后继续维持下去。这位新招募的教员将有资格通过试点项目机制获得 CVCN 支持。具体目标#4：在 NDSU 建立国家认可的视觉和认知神经科学中心。具体目标 1-3 的实现将在 NDSU 创建一个卓越研究中心，保证吸引更多致力于视觉和认知神经科学前沿研究的优质教师、博士后研究员和研究生。 NDSU 视觉和认知神经科学中心将竞争机构培训补助金 (T32)、研究项目补助金 (R01) 和基础设施发展补助金 (R24)，这些补助金将在最初几年的支持之后继续维持该中心。
