DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Evelyn F. and William L. McKnight Vision Research Center (MVRC) is the research arm of the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. The MCVR draws together 48 eye and vision research investigators across the University of Miami and nearby institutions. Forty-two investigators hold primary appointments in the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. This P30 core center grant is specifically directed towards MVRC investigators to integrate expertise on cellular, molecular, functional, anatomical, biophysical, computational, and clinical aspects of the visual system and its disorders, as well as share core resources and educational programs. The MVRC Team includes 21 NEI-funded Principal Investigators holding 19 qualifying NEI grants as well as 27 Principal Investigators holding non-NEI funded grants. Most of the research space is located within the eight-story MVRC. Additional space is located in the adjacent Biomedical Research Building, Rosenstiel building, Lois Pope LlFE center, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Clinical Research Building. We request continuing support for a Vision Research Core Grant whose specific aims are, 1) to provide and sustain core resource facilities to enhance the pace and quality of research, 2) to foster collaborative research among investigators from various disciplines, 3) to attract investigators to research on the visual system and its diseases, 4) to help investigators gathering data for new NIH grant proposals. The core grant will support four modules: I) Shared Equipment: to provide access to instrumentation beyond the reach of single labs, II) Experimental Models: to provide expertise and services on in-vivo procedures and testing. III) Biological imaging: to support the processing of biological specimens for quantitative microscopy analysis, IV) Biostatistics: to provide expertise on research design and data analysis. The Bascom Palmer Eye Institute supports additional shared resources including, V) Ophthalmic Biophysics Center: for consultation, maintenance and construction of ad-hoc instrumentation; VI) Clinical Microbiology Laboratory: providing services for clinical and basic research heeds; Vll) The Mary & Edward Norton Library: housing the world's largest collection on the subject of ophthalmology.

描述（由申请人提供）：Evelyn F.和William L. McKnight Vision Research Center（MVRC）是迈阿密米勒大学医学院的Bascom Palmer Eye Institute的研究部门。 MCVR汇集了迈阿密大学和附近机构的48眼和视觉研究调查员。 42名调查人员在Bascom Palmer眼科研究所任命主要任命。该P30核心中心赠款专门针对MVRC研究人员，旨在整合视觉系统及其疾病的细胞，分子，功能，解剖学，生物物理，计算和临床方面的专业知识，以及共享核心资源和教育计划。 MVRC团队包括21名由NEI资助的首席调查员，持有19条合格的NEI赠款，以及27名持有非NEI资助赠款的首席调查员。大多数研究空间位于八层楼高的MVRC内。额外的空间位于邻近的生物医学研究大楼，罗森斯托尔大楼，路易斯·波普·洛夫中心，西尔维斯特综合癌症中心和临床研究大楼。我们要求对视觉研究核心赠款的持续支持，其特定目标是：1）提供和维持核心资源设施，以提高研究的步伐和质量，2）促进来自各个学科的研究人员之间的合作研究，3），以吸引研究人员对视觉系统及其疾病的研究，以及其疾病，以及其疾病，以及其疾病的研究， 4）帮助调查人员收集数据以获取新的NIH赠款建议。核心赠款将支持四个模块：i）共享设备：提供超出单个实验室的仪器的访问，ii）实验模型：在体内程序和测试中提供专业知识和服务。 iii）生物成像：支持生物标本的加工进行定量显微镜分析，iv）生物统计学：提供研究设计和数据分析的专业知识。 BASCOM PALMER EYE Institute支持其他共享资源，包括，V）眼科生物物理中心：用于临时仪器的咨询，维护和建设； vi）临床微生物学实验室：为临床和基础研究提供服务； vll）玛丽和爱德华·诺顿图书馆：在眼科主题上拥有世界上最大的藏品。
