Morphology Core

项目摘要 形态学核心的目标是提高个体研究者执行视觉的有效性 通过提供所需的仪器和专业知识进行研究：1）提供设备、培训和支持 进行组织学研究、眼部成像和功能性视觉测试以及最新成像所需的 技术水平超过任何单个实验室的能力; 2）促进合作 基础和临床视觉科学家之间通过共享资源，技术和 专业知识;和3）支持所有视觉研究人员，包括新的教师和经验丰富的和新手 用户.为此，我们配备了最先进的显微镜、眼成像和视觉测试 仪器，加上切片机，低温恒温器和组织学工具。核心是由一个高度管理和运作 经验丰富的经理，具有组织处理和免疫染色以及图像方面的专业知识 组织学评估的采集和解释服务。

PROJECT SUMMARY The Morphology Core’s objective is to increase the effectiveness of individual investigators to perform vision research by providing the instruments and expertise required by: 1) providing equipment, training and support needed for performing histological studies, ocular imaging and functional visual testing, plus the latest imaging technology at a level exceeding the capabilities of any one individual laboratory; 2) promoting collaborations and collegiality amongst basic and clinical vision scientists through the sharing of resources, techniques and expertise; and 3) supporting all vision researchers including new faculty and both experienced and novice users. To this end, we are fully equipped with state-of-the-art microscopes, ocular imaging and visual testing instruments, plus microtomes, cryostats and histology tools. The Core is managed and operated by a highly experienced manager, with specific expertise in tissue processing and immunostaining, as well as image acquisition and interpreting services for histological evaluation.
