NEI New Space Activation & Commissioning

NEI在三个主要发展领域取得了进展：（1）遗传学;（2）神经科学;（3）转化和临床研究。 为了实施这些计划，我们不得不翻新和设计新的空间，并通过将研究人员与具有互补技能和专业知识的科学家紧密联系来提高他们的效率。 在过去的几年里，6号楼的全面翻新一直在进行中，NEI的研究人员被要求将他们的实验室搬到7号楼。 在此期间，我们还招募了几名新的研究人员，以及一个新的神经变性和遗传学实验室。 最近，Anand Swaroop新招募的实验室搬进了刚刚完工的6号楼。 与此同时，由于7号楼已被拆除，临时被关押在该楼的其他调查人员不得不搬迁。 我们为这些调查人员设计并建造了新的校外空间5625 Fishers Lane（Twinbrook）。 一位新招募的神经科学家已经从7号楼的临时空间搬到了波特神经科学，因为他的工作内容与其他研究所的神经科学家密切重叠。 此外，我们已经将调查人员从10号楼和波特神经科学中心转移到5625号费舍尔巷。 这使我们能够在临床中心附近的10号楼开发空间，用于计算医学的新项目。

NEI intramural is moving forward in three main areas of development: (1) genetics; (2) neuroscience; (3) translational and clinical research. To carry out these programs we have had to renovate and design new space and move investigators to increase their effectiveness by putting them in close physical proximity with scientists of complementary skills and expertise. Over the last several years the complete renovation of building 6 has been going on and the NEI investigators housed in that building were required to move their labs to building 7. In that time we have also recruited several new investigators as well as a new laboratory in neurodegeneration and genetics. Recently the newly recruited laboratory of Anand Swaroop moved into the just completed building 6. At the same time other investigators that were temporarily held in building 7 have had to move since that building has been demolished. We have designed and built new off campus space for these investigators in 5625 Fishers Lane (Twinbrook). A newly recruited neuroscientist has been moved from temporary space in building 7 to Porter Neuroscience since his work closely overlaps in content with neuroscientists from other institutes. In addition, we have moved investigators from building 10 and Porter Neuroscience to 5625 Fishers Lane. This has allowed us to develop space in building 10 near the clinical center for a new program in Computational Medicine.
