CORE GRANT FOR VISION RESEARCH

巴斯科姆眼科系教师的目标 帕尔默眼科研究所，是促进眼科研究，教育 和病人护理。 在这三个领域中的每一个方面都取得了卓越的成绩， 奋进帮助进步，反过来又被促进， 另外两个 研究进展丰富了知识， 在教育中共享，并形成进步的基础， 病人护理 研究工作是由调查促进的 那些在训练中提出新问题的人的头脑， 具有丰富临床经验的人的观察力。 教育培养下一代研究工作者， 临床医生，并保持当代最新。 患者 护理提供了宝贵的观察和必要的标本， 研究，作为研究有效性的最终测试 发现，并通过同情心提供的动机， 研究工作。 巴斯科姆眼科的核心设施 帕尔默眼科研究所，迈阿密大学医学院， 位于威廉L。麦克奈特视觉研究中心，是一个 是我们研究的重要组成部分 教学病人护理的努力。 他们作为共享资源 作为扩大联合国 研究他人，并作为一个重要的催化剂， 跨学科的合作，其中一些已经移动了所有的 从试管到动物模型再到对照临床试验。 建议继续现有的核心设施：（1）纸巾 培养，（2）动物区，（3）形态学研究（电子 显微镜，以及现在的组织学），（4）生物统计学 服务，（5）研究摄影服务，服务，和（6） 研究管理。

The goal of the faculty of the Department of Ophthalmology, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, is to promote ophthalmic research, education and patient care. Excellence in each oF these three areas of endeavor aids the advancement of, and in turn is facilitated by, the other two. Research progress enriches the knowledge which is to be shared in education and forms the basis for advances in patient care. The research effort is fostered by the inquiring minds of those in training who ask new questions, and by the observant minds of those with extensive clinical experience. Education prepares the next generation of research workers and clinicians, and keeps the present generation up to date. Patient care provides valuable observations and essential specimens for research, serves as the ultimate test of the validity of research findings, and provides through compassion the motivation for the research effort. The Core Facilities of the Department of Ophthalmology, Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami School of Medicine, housed in the William L. McKnight Vision Research Center, are an important component of the cement that holds together our research- teaching-patient care effort. They have served as shared resources for their major users, as resources for the extension of the research of others, and as an essential catalyst for interdisciplinary collaborations, some of which have moved all the way from the tube to animal models to controlled clinical trials. It is proposed to continue the existing Core Facilities: (1) Tissue Culture, (2) Animal Quarters, (3) Morphological Studies (electron microscopy, and now histology as well), (4) Biostatistical Services, (5) Research Photographic Service, Services, and (6) Research Administration.
