DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Support is requested to integrate the basic research expertise in the chemical senses at the University of Florida (UF) and Florida State University (FSU) by creating the UF/FSU Chemosensory Research Core Center; the first such center in the Southeast. The proposal creates an administrative Core and two research Cores, one in Engineering and one in Genetics, to provide 'value added' to the mostly NIDCD-funded chemical senses research at the two institutions. The research base consists of six qualifying and eight supporting chemosensory investigators, together with three other auditory investigators who will also benefit from the research Cores. Two related research themes unite the research base, chemosensory processing controlling ingestive behavior and the detection and processing of olfactory input. Two scientific leaders in the field who have a proven history of working effectively together anchor the initiative at the respective institutions. Interaction is facilitated by establishing office space at each institution for use by scientists from the other institution, by establishing dedicated videoconferencing facilities at each institution, and by using UF's NIDCD-supported secure data sharing network. The conceptual framework of the Core Center closely aligns it with that of the UF Center for Smell and Taste's NIDCD-supported Chemosensory Clinical Research Program, which focuses on studying the functional role of chemosensory systems in ingestive behavior and its impact on human health.

描述（由申请人提供）：请求支持通过创建佛罗里达大学（UF）和佛罗里达州立大学（FSU）化学感官研究核心中心来整合化学感官方面的基础研究专业知识；东南部第一个此类中心。该提案创建了一个行政核心和两个研究核心，一个在工程领域，一个在遗传学领域，为这两个机构主要由 NIDCD 资助的化学感官研究提供“增值”。该研究基地由六名合格的化学感应研究人员和八名支持性化学感应研究人员组成，以及其他三名听觉研究人员，他们也将从研究核心中受益。两个相关的研究主题将研究基础结合在一起：控制摄取行为的化学感觉处理以及嗅觉输入的检测和处理。该领域的两位科学领导者有着有效合作的历史，他们在各自的机构中主持了这一倡议。通过在每个机构建立办公空间供其他机构的科学家使用、在每个机构建立专用视频会议设施以及使用佛罗里达大学 NIDCD 支持的安全数据共享网络来促进互动。核心中心的概念框架与佛罗里达大学嗅觉和味觉中心的 NIDCD 支持的化学感应临床研究计划紧密结合，该计划重点研究化学感应系统在摄入行为中的功能作用及其对人类健康的影响。
