此应用程序寻求心理上的核心支持 美国国立卫生研究院发育迟缓/发育障碍分会 威斯康星州智障儿童健康与人的发展 研究中心(MRRC)。威斯康星大学的威斯康星州MRRC 威斯康星-麦迪逊分校是威斯康星大学的中心 关于精神发育迟滞和智力低下的新知识的发展 相关的发育障碍。该应用程序寻求对 行政核心和六个研究支助核心。六大研究核心 是计算、数据管理和统计核心、 通信/图形核心、动物护理和繁育核心、 仪器核心、细胞生物学核心和评估核心。 这些核心提供基本的、高质量的，有时甚至是独特的服务 以低于这些服务价格的价格购买 在MRRC外面。 这笔拨款将为37个研究项目提供核心支持， 由四个生物医学研究小组的35名研究人员进行 和行为研究。这四个研究小组是分子和 遗传科学单位(MGSU)、感觉和运动处理单位(SMPU)、 通信处理单元(CPU)与社会和情感 进程单元(SPU)。这项研究旨在提供新的信息 关于该病的原因、性质和可能的有效干预 导致精神发育迟滞和其他形式发育障碍的障碍 残疾人士。在37个项目中，35个项目要么通过 来自NIH、NSF或NIMH的现有赠款的外部资金或 在其中一个机构有一个悬而未决的提案；其中一个得到了 肌肉营养不良协会；剩余的项目正在提出中 作为新程序开发。

This application seeks Core support from the Mental Retardation/Developmental Disabilities Branch of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development for the Wisconsin Mental Retardation Research Center (MRRC). The Wisconsin MRRC, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is the focal point for the University of Wisconsin System in the development of new knowledge about mental retardation and related developmental disabilities. The application seeks support for an administrative core and six research support cores. The six research cores are the Computing, Data Management, and Statistics Core, the Communication/Graphics Core, the Animal Care and Breeding Core, the Instrumentation Core, the Cell Biology Core, and the Assessment Core. These cores provide essential, high-quality, and sometimes unique services at costs that are below the rates for those services if purchased from outside the MRRC. This grant will provide Core support for 37 research projects to be conducted by 35 investigators in four research groups pursuing biomedical and behavioral research. The four research groups are the Molecular and Genetic Sciences Unit (MGSU), the Sensory and Motor Processes Unit (SMPU), the Communication Processes Unit (CPU), and the Social and Affective Processes Unit (SPU). This research is designed to provide new information about the causes, nature, and possible efficacious intervention in disorders that cause mental retardation and other forms of developmental disabilities. Of the 37 projects, 35 are either supported through extramural funding by current grants from the NIH, the NSF, or the NIMH or have a pending proposal at one of these agencies; one is supported by the Muscular Dystrophy Association; and the remaining project is being proposed as New Program Development.
