Imaging Core

抽象成像核心 成像核心一直是我们的COBRE的核心组成部分， 生物学在俄克拉荷马州”自第一阶段开始。它的使命是提供最先进的成像技术 仪器，优秀的培训计划，并致力于公平获取研究人员在整个 俄克拉荷马州。在第一阶段和第二阶段，成像核心使COBRE研究人员能够利用 先进的成像方法在其研究数据的采集和分析。成像芯 此外，还为增强OMRF的成像基础设施做出了巨大贡献，从而扩大了 成像能力和他们对所有俄克拉荷马州研究人员的访问。这一贡献将继续通过 第三阶段。我们将通过提供先进的成像技术， 技术，以我们的试点项目调查员和前一期和二期COBRE项目负责人，同时移动 第三阶段后的可持续性。我们将通过以下具体措施实现我们的目标： 目的： 目标1.保持最先进的成像设备。目标2.继续我们的咨询和培训战略 研究人员使用成像核心。目标3.建立可持续的核心预算。 目标4。保持审查、优先排序和支持项目的方法。目标5。维持方法 解决核心使用争议。目标6。继续评价核心的效率和效力。目标7。 制定战略计划，在COBRE第三阶段之后维持成像核心。

ABSTRACT IMAGING CORE The Imaging Core has been a central component of our COBRE, “Expanding Excellence in Developmental Biology in Oklahoma” since the beginning of Phase I. Its mission is to provide state-of-the-art imaging instrumentation, outstanding training programs, and commitment to fair access for researchers throughout Oklahoma. Throughout Phases I and II, the Imaging Core has enabled COBRE investigators to utilize sophisticated imaging approaches in the acquisition and analysis of their research data. The Imaging Core has, in addition, contributed greatly to enhancing imaging infrastructure at OMRF, thereby expanding both imaging capabilities and their access to all Oklahoma researchers. This contribution will continue through Phase III. We will continue to support and develop the Imaging Core by providing advanced imaging technologies to our Pilot Project Investigators and former Phase I and II COBRE Project Leads while moving the Core towards post-Phase III sustainability. We will accomplish our goals through the following Specific Aims: Aim 1. Maintain a state-of-the-art imaging facility. Aim 2. Continue our strategy for advising and training investigators in using the Imaging Core. Aim 3. Establish a sustainable Core budget. Aim 4. Sustain methods for reviewing, prioritizing, and supporting projects. Aim 5. Sustain methods for resolving Core usage disputes. Aim 6. Continue evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of the Core. Aim 7. Make a strategic plan to sustain the Imaging Core beyond COBRE Phase III.
