DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A Core Center Grant is proposed to support vision research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Investigators in the Department of Ophthalmology recently completed a 5-year infrastructure grant (R24) that supported ocular surface research on our campus. The infrastructure grant was enormously successful and fostered new collaborations and culminated in 69 publications in peer-review journals. We recently received a one-year P30 Core Grant through the ARRA. This unique one-year award has fostered further collaborations among vision researchers from the Departments of Ophthalmology, Psychiatry, Physiology, Neuroscience, and the Center for Developmental Biology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. We have also initiated a number of vision-related projects and seminar series that have enriched vision research activities on this campus. This, along with the acquisition of additional NEl-supported research, prompted us to submit a 5-year P30 Core Grant application to enhance and expand research efforts that rely on three common technologies: 1) tissue culture/hybridoma; 2) imaging; and 3) protein biochemistry and virus-mediated gene transfer. Significant institutional support in the form of additional laboratory space, endowed scholars' awards, and intramural research awards has provided a fertile ground for expansion and enhancement of vision research on our campus. The proposed Core Grant for Vision Research will further this effort and enhance vision research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

描述（由申请人提供）：一个核心中心补助金，建议在得克萨斯大学西南医学中心支持视力研究。眼科系的研究人员最近完成了一项为期5年的基础设施补助金（R24），支持我们校园内的眼表研究。基础设施赠款取得了巨大成功，促进了新的合作，并最终在同行评审期刊上发表了69篇论文。我们最近通过ARRA获得了为期一年的P30核心补助金。这个独特的为期一年的奖项促进了来自眼科，精神病学， 生理学、神经科学和德克萨斯大学西南医学中心发育生物学中心。我们还发起了一些与视觉相关的项目和研讨会系列，丰富了这个校园的视觉研究活动。这一点，沿着获得额外的NEI支持的研究，促使我们提交了一份为期5年的P30核心资助申请，以加强和扩大依赖于三种常见技术的研究工作：1）组织培养/杂交瘤; 2）成像; 3）蛋白质生物化学和病毒介导的基因转移。在额外的实验室空间，捐赠学者的奖项和校内研究奖的形式显着的机构支持提供了一个肥沃的土壤，扩大和增强我们校园的视觉研究。拟议的视觉研究核心补助金将进一步推动这一努力，并加强得克萨斯大学西南医学中心的视觉研究。
