巴斯科姆·帕尔默眼科研究所是一个综合性的、专注于疾病的学术单位，它是 迈阿密大学米勒医学院眼科。安妮·贝茨的教学 眼科医院是巴斯科姆·帕尔默的主要眼科护理机构。相邻的Evelyn F.和William L. 麦克奈特视力研究中心(MVRC)是巴斯科姆·帕尔默的研究机构，也协调所有 巴斯科姆·帕尔默研究任务的方方面面。此外，MVRC将NEI资助的眼睛和视力结合在一起 迈阿密大学和附近机构的研究人员组成了迈阿密眼科团队。这 P30核心中心拨款申请是专门针对这群调查人员进行分享的 研究活动、协作专业知识、核心资源和教育计划。 这项P30提案的长期目标是加强 迈阿密眼科团队调查人员，从而扩大和加强他们对知识和 了解眼睛、视力和致盲眼病。我们要求继续为 P30EY014801视觉研究核心助学金支持以下核心资源模块：(1)共享 设备，(2)实验模型，(3)生物成像，(4)生物统计学。生物成像 结合了前面的两个模块-组织学和组织处理以及分析成像-因为它们 方法论上的关联性。

Bascom Palmer Eye Institute is a comprehensive, disease-focused academic unit that serves as the Department Of Ophthalmology, for the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. The Anne Bates Leach Eye Hospital is Bascom Palmer's main facility for ophthalmic care. The adjacent Evelyn F. and William L. McKnight Vision Research Center (MVRC) is Bascom Palmer's research arm, and also coordinates all aspects of Bascom Palmer's research mission. Moreover, MVRC draws together NEI-funded eye and vision research investigators across the University of Miami and nearby institutions as the Miami Eye Team. This P30 core center grant application is specifically directed towards this group of investigators to share in research activities, collaborative expertise, core resources, and educational programs. The long-term goal of this P30 proposal is to strengthen the conceptual and methodological capabilities of Miami Eye Team investigators, thus expanding and enhancing their contributions to knowledge and understanding of the eye, vision, and blinding eye diseases. We request continued funding of the P30EY014801 Core Grant for Vision Research to support the following core resource modules: (1) Shared Equipment, (2) Experimental Models, (3) Biological Imaging, (4) Biostatistics. Biological Imaging combines two previous modules —Histology & Tissue Processing and Analytical Imaging— because of their methodological interrelatedness.
