DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term objective of this application is to support current and future vision research endeavors at Indiana University, Bloomington. This infrastructure grant provides support for three shared resource modules: electronics, machine shop and scientific computing. The modules will expand the seamless integration of mechanical, electronics and software components in custom research equipment and new clinical technology, plus provide new coordination of activity across numerous inter-related laboratories and a sustained interaction with sophisticated supercomputing and 3D visualization resources on campus. The applications to our vision research projects are broad, including microscopic and ocular fluorimetry, cell physiology and molecular biology, advanced measurement and modeling of the optics of the eye. Novel imaging of the structures of the normal and pathological living human eye, studies of the normal and abnormal developing human visual system, and the development of new quantitative strategies to assess visual function in a clinical setting. The local research environment has expanded to include seven new active laboratories during the past eight years and at least three more are anticipated in the next three years.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的长期目标是支持印第安纳大学伯明顿分校当前和未来的视觉研究工作。该基础设施拨款为三个共享资源模块提供支持：电子、机械车间和科学计算。这些模块将扩展定制研究设备和新临床技术中机械、电子和软件组件的无缝集成，并在众多相互关联的实验室之间提供新的活动协调，以及与校园内复杂的超级计算和 3D 可视化资源的持续交互。我们的视觉研究项目的应用非常广泛，包括显微和眼部荧光测定、细胞生理学和分子生物学、眼睛光学的高级测量和建模。对正常和病理活体人眼结构的新颖成像，对正常和异常发育的人类视觉系统的研究，以及开发新的定量策略来评估临床环境中的视觉功能。在过去的八年里，当地的研究环境已经扩大到包括七个新的活跃实验室，预计未来三年至少还会有三个实验室。
