Many laboratory scientists in our group use animal models for some phases of their work, and sometimes their animal studies are conducted in collaboration with clinical faculty in Ophthalmology. The Animal Resource Module performs the essential function of providing shared space, with equipment dedicated for animal use, where ophthalmic procedures can be conducted. This Module was formerly called the 'Animal Surgery Module', but the name was changed during this budget cycle to reflect the fact that it is less frequently used for surgery than in the past. Now it serves as a multi-purpose resource for conducting animal research with a primary emphasis on ocular examination and image collection, tissue collection for morphologic and molecular analysis, and performance of minor procedures. Access to well-designed space within the institution's vivarium, where the Module is located, assures that we fulfill the requirements for the appropriate care and handling of research animals. Further, having a centralized facility avoids duplication of expensive equipment and encourages interaction among members of the group with different skills in animal examination and manipulation. If the Module with its specialized instruments were not available, we would be unable to perform the ocular procedures and examinations on the multiple animal species that our group uses.

我们小组中的许多实验室科学家使用动物模型进行某些阶段 他们的工作，有时他们的动物研究是与临床教师合作进行的 眼科。动物资源模块执行提供共享空间的基本功能， 用于动物使用的设备可以进行眼科手术。这个模块以前是 称为“动物手术模块”，但在此预算周期中名称已更改，以反映以下事实。 与过去相比，用于手术的频率少。现在它是用于传导动物的多功能资源 主要重点是眼检查和图像收集，形态学的组织收集 和分子分析以及次要程序的性能。访问精心设计的空间 模块所在的机构的Vivarium确保我们满足适当护理的要求 和处理动物。此外，拥有集中式设施避免重复昂贵的设备 并鼓励小组成员之间的互动，在动物检查方面具有不同的技能和 操纵。如果没有专用仪器的模块，我们将无法执行 我们小组使用的多种动物物种的眼镜程序和检查。
