The overarching scientific goal of the Delaware Center for Neuroscience Research is to support and bring together neuroscientists working at multiple scales, from human subjects to animal models, to improve our understanding of the dynamic function of the human brain. The University of Delaware has made a significant investment into building a capability in human neuroimaging—purchasing a cutting edge 3T MRI scanner with advanced capabilities to map brain structure and function, and the establishment of the Center for Biomedical and Brain Imaging, which is planned to expand to encompass small animal MRI and other imaging technologies. By combining animal and human neuroimaging, our Core will serve to bring together biologists, psychologists, kinesiologists and others who image the human brain, with molecular, cellular and behavioral neuroscientists who use animal models, and will support collaborations focusing on multi-scale investigations of the architecture and functional activity of the brain. To achieve these objectives, there are three specific aims: 1) To provide state-of-the-art neuroimaging of human subjects and rodent models to serve the research needs of COBRE-supported investigators. 2) To provide neuroscience researchers in Delaware with consultation and coordination, technical assistance, and educational opportunities in functional neuroimaging in humans and animals in support of experimental design, data acquisition and analysis. 3) To advance cutting-edge neuroimaging research and grow the user base in Delaware by serving as a resource for current investigators and recruitment of outstanding new hires.

特拉华州神经科学研究中心的首要科学目标是支持 并汇集了在多个尺度上工作的神经科学家，从人类受试者到动物模型， 提高我们对人脑动态功能的理解。特拉华州大学 在建立人类神经成像能力方面进行了重大投资-购买了尖端技术， 3 T MRI扫描仪具有绘制大脑结构和功能的先进功能， 生物医学和脑成像中心，该中心计划扩大到包括小动物MRI 和其他成像技术。通过结合动物和人类的神经成像，我们的核心将有助于 汇集了生物学家，心理学家，运动学家和其他谁的形象人脑， 使用动物模型的分子、细胞和行为神经科学家，并将支持合作 专注于大脑结构和功能活动的多尺度研究。实现 这些目标有三个具体目标：1）提供最先进的人类神经成像 受试者和啮齿动物模型，以满足COBRE-supported调查人员的研究需求。2)提供 特拉华州的神经科学研究人员提供咨询和协调，技术援助， 在人类和动物的功能性神经成像的教育机会，以支持实验 设计、数据采集和分析。3)推进尖端的神经影像学研究并扩大用户 基地在特拉华州作为一个资源，为目前的调查和招聘优秀的新 雇用。
