CENTER FOR NEUROSCIENCE EXCELLENCE

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 佛蒙特大学神经科学卓越生物医学研究中心（COBRE）成立于2001年，其总体目标是通过建立协作知识基础设施，开发尖端共享核心设施，支持招聘新的初级教师，并为多所大学的神经科学系提供研究项目和试点项目资金。神经科学COBRE扩展了跨学科的神经科学研究，并通过增加基础和临床神经科学家之间的互动促进了转化研究。COBRE的资助在发展优秀的研究基础设施方面发挥了重要作用，使神经科学界能够成功地竞争新的机构资金和校外支持。随着神经科学教师企业的发展，神经科学已被指定为UVM的研究和培训重点领域。 下一个资助周期的主要目标是在我们成功的基础上继续支持UVM神经科学研究和培训的基础设施。目标是： 目标一：为了支持在UVM神经科学家的智力环境和研究机会，（1）保持一个有力的指导计划，以促进试点项目资助主任和新招募的初级神经科学研究人员的成功，（2）支持全校神经科学研讨会系列和年度务虚会，（3）支持试点项目赠款，（4）促进全校神经科学研究生课程的发展和生产力;（5）促进基础和临床科学家之间的对话，促进合作和转化研究的发展。 目标2：通过促进两个神经科学COBRE多用户研究核心的持续增长来支持UVM神经科学研究和培训的基础设施：成像/生理学核心和细胞/分子生物学核心。特别是，神经科学COBRE赠款将确保通过成像/生理学核心和细胞/分子生物学核心提供的设备和研究培训的复杂性持续增长。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The overall goal of the Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) in Neuroscience at the University of Vermont (UVM), established in 2001, has been to integrate and expand neuroscience research and training at UVM by building a collaborative intellectual infrastructure, developing cutting-edge shared core facilities, supporting recruitment of new junior faculty, and by providing research project and pilot project funding for neuroscience faculty in multiple colleges. The Neuroscience COBRE expanded interdisciplinary neuroscience research and promoted translational research by increasing the interaction between basic and clinical neuroscientists. COBRE funding has been instrumental in developing an excellent research infrastructure that has allowed the neuroscience community to compete successfully for new institutional funds and extramural support. As the neuroscience faculty enterprise has grown, neuroscience has been designated an area of research and training emphasis at UVM. The primary objective of the next grant cycle is to build upon our success and continue to support the infrastructure of neuroscience research and training at UVM. The goals are: Goal 1: To support the intellectual environment and research opportunities of neuroscientists at UVM by (1) maintaining a vigorous mentoring program to promote success of pilot project grant directors and newly recruited junior neuroscience investigators, (2) supporting a University-wide Neuroscience Seminar Series and Annual Retreat, (3) supporting Pilot Project grants, (4) facilitating the growth and productivity of the university-wide Neuroscience Graduate Program and (5) facilitating dialogue between basic and clinical scientists that promotes development of collaborative and translational research. Goal 2: To support the infrastructure for neuroscience research and training at UVM by fostering the continued growth of two Neuroscience COBRE multi-user research cores: an Imaging/Physiology Core and Cell/Molecular Biology Core. In particular, the Neuroscience COBRE grant will ensure continued growth in sophistication of equipment and research training offered through the Imaging/Physiology Core and Cell/Molecular Biology Core.
