Imaging Core Module Abstract 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 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 Department of Neurobiology has 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.

成像核心模块摘要 在过去的十年中，成像技术及其应用于基本生物医学的革命 研究。成像核心模块将是将这项技术带入愿景的关键资源 耶鲁大学的社区。高级成像设备很昂贵，通常无法购买，并且 用单个调查员的资源维护。此外，几乎完整的转换 对高级光学和数字方法的成像，复杂的数据采集和分析技术是 需要定量检查视觉系统结构，开发和功能所需。耶鲁视觉核心 通过此成像模块的程序将提供对最新成像技术的访问 在耶鲁大学的视觉研究人员的高级成像方法中的必要培训。成像核心模块的 主要目标是促进耶鲁大学中广泛使用高级光学和数字成像技术 视觉研究社区。这是通过三种方法实现的。首先，耶鲁大学医学院和 神经生物学系已并将继续对高级成像进行大量投资 显微镜，视觉核心研究人员将通过耶鲁大学视觉核心获得自由访问。第二，a 支持科学家Stacy Wilson博士，他是光学和数字成像技术的专家，将提供 适当使用显微镜和数字成像的技术支持。第三，核心模块将训练 视觉核心科学家（学生，博士后）采用适当的显微镜技术和高级数字图像 分析。我们预计成像核心模块将在研究成功中发挥重要作用 耶鲁大学的视觉调查员。
