Imaging Core Project Summary Over the past decade there has been a revolution in imaging technology and its application to basic biomedical research. The Imaging Core Module will be a critical resource in bringing this technology to the vision research community at Yale. Advanced imaging equipment is expensive and typically cannot be purchased and maintained with the resources of a single investigator. Moreover, with the nearly complete conversion of imaging to advanced optics and digital methods, sophisticated data acquisition and analysis techniques are required to quantitatively examine visual system structure, development and function. The Yale Vision Core Program, through this Imaging module, will provide access to state-of-the-art imaging technologies and the necessary training in advanced imaging approaches for vision investigators at Yale. The Imaging Core module's primary goal is to facilitate the wide use of advanced optical and digital imaging techniques within the Yale vision research community. This is achieved by three means. First, Yale School of Medicine and the Departments of Neuroscience and Ophthalmology & Visual Science have made and will continue to make a significant investment in advanced imaging microscopes, which Vision Core investigators will gain free access to through the Yale Vision Core. Second, a Support Scientist, Dr. Stacy Wilson, who is an expert in optics and digital imaging techniques, will provide technical support in the proper use of the microscopes and digital imaging. Third, the Core module will train Vision Core scientists (students, postdocs) in appropriate microscopy techniques and advanced digital image analysis. We anticipate that the Imaging Core module will play an important role in the research success of vision investigators at Yale University.

成像核心 项目摘要 在过去的十年里，成像技术及其在基础医学中的应用发生了革命性的变化。 生物医学研究成像核心模块将是将该技术引入 耶鲁大学的视觉研究社区。先进的成像设备是昂贵的，并且通常不能 由一名调查员的资源购买和维护。此外，随着近 将成像转换为先进的光学和数字方法，复杂的数据采集和分析 需要技术来定量地检查视觉系统的结构、发展和功能。的 耶鲁视觉核心计划，通过这个成像模块，将提供访问国家的最先进的成像 技术和必要的培训，在先进的成像方法的视觉研究人员在耶鲁大学。 成像核心模块的主要目标是促进先进的光学和数字成像的广泛使用 耶鲁视觉研究社区的技术。这是通过三种手段实现的。第一，耶鲁大学 医学部和神经科学、眼科和视觉科学系已经制定了 我们将继续在先进的成像显微镜方面进行重大投资， 研究人员将通过耶鲁视觉核心获得免费访问。第二，支持科学家，斯泰西博士 威尔逊是光学和数字成像技术方面的专家，他将在适当的时候提供技术支持。 使用显微镜和数字成像。第三，Core模块将培养Vision Core科学家 （学生，博士后）在适当的显微镜技术和先进的数字图像分析。我们 我预计成像核心模块将在视觉研究的成功中发挥重要作用 耶鲁大学的研究人员。
