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.

图像处理核心模块摘要 在过去的十年里，成像技术及其在基础生物医学中的应用发生了一场革命 研究。成像核心模块将是将这项技术带入视野的关键资源 耶鲁大学的社区。高级成像设备价格昂贵，通常无法购买 仅靠一名调查员的资源进行维护。此外，随着几乎完全转换为 从成像到先进的光学和数字方法，先进的数据采集和分析技术 需要定量检查视觉系统的结构、发育和功能。耶鲁愿景的核心 计划，通过这个成像模块，将提供访问最先进的成像技术和 耶鲁大学视觉研究人员在高级成像方法方面的必要培训。成像核心模块的 主要目标是促进先进的光学和数字成像技术在耶鲁大学的广泛使用 视觉研究社区。这是通过三种方式实现的。首先，耶鲁大学医学院和 神经生物学系已经并将继续在先进成像方面进行重大投资 显微镜，愿景核心研究人员将通过耶鲁愿景核心免费获得这些显微镜。第二，一个 支持科学家、光学和数字成像技术专家Stacy Wilson博士将提供 为正确使用显微镜和数码成像提供技术支持。第三，核心模块将进行培训 视觉核心科学家(学生、博士后)掌握适当的显微技术和先进的数字图像 分析。我们预计成像核心模块将在成功的研究中发挥重要作用 耶鲁大学的视觉研究人员。
