Core Grant for Vision Research

罗切斯特大学视觉科学中心寻求更新其NEI P30 核心补助金，用于支持21名参与视觉研究的研究人员。第14页，共14页 参与调查的人员共持有17个符合条件的NEI R01奖助金，这些 调查人员将拥有对核心资源的最高优先级访问权限。额外的21 附属调查人员，从事视觉研究，但得到其他人的支持 来源，完成Rochester愿景社区，并将可以访问Core 降低了优先级的资源。罗切斯特大学的视觉研究涉及四大科学领域 主题：用于视力矫正和视网膜成像的先进光学技术，细胞 正常和疾病眼的生物学，视觉的神经机制，以及 行为。每个主题所代表的调查员将由四人担任 核心：确保公平、财政负责和 科学高效地分配核心技术服务，这是一种计算核心 为硬件控制、刺激生成、数据提供应用程序编程 分析和建模，一个为组织学提供专业知识的成像核心， 小鼠、猴子、猫、兔的显微镜和低、高分辨率活体成像 和人类，以及一个仪器核心，提供机械和 电气工程，开发用于视觉研究的新型仪器。

The Center for Visual Science at the University of Rochester seeks to renew its NEI P30 Core Grant to support 21 participating investigators engaged in vision research. 14 of the participating investigators hold at total of 17 eligible NEI R01 grants and these investigators will have highest priority access to Core resources. An additional 21 affiliated investigators, who are engaged in vision research but are supported by other sources, complete the Rochester vision community and will have access to Core resources at reduced priority. Vision research at Rochester involves four major scientific themes: Advanced optical technology for vision correction and retinal imaging, cell biology of the normal and diseased eye, the neural mechanisms of vision, and vision in behavior. Investigators represented by each of these themes will be served by four Cores: An Administrative Core to ensure the equitable, fiscally responsible, and scientifically productive distribution of Core technical services, a Computing Core that provides applications programming for hardware control, stimulus generation, data analysis, and modeling, an Imaging Core that provides expertise for histology, microscopy, and low- and high-resolution in vivo imaging in mouse, monkey, cat, rabbit and human, and an Instrumentation Core that provides expertise in mechanical and electrical engineering to develop novel instrumentation for vision research.
