项目摘要

ABSTRACT The Cell and Tissue Microscopy Core (CTMC) will support the DC-IDDRC researchers in their work that relies on the use of high-resolution optical and electron microscopic approaches to study cells and tissues. CTMC will offer access to state-of-the-art microscopy imaging and analytical tools to support research focused on pediatric diseases with an emphasis on neurodevelopmental disorders, fetal and neonatal brain injury and genetic diseases. CTMC will extend its services to researchers at Children’s National Hospital, George Washington University, Georgetown University and Howard University. Among these users, there is a growing need for tools that enable imaging at greater spatial and temporal resolution while also allowing functional imaging and deep as well as large area imaging. To support these needs CTMC continues to expand its services including widefield, confocal, live and multiphoton microscopy with optogenetic manipulation, light sheet microscopy, super resolution, correlative light and EM as well as large field 3D-EM. With these developments the core will continue to meet and also expand its mission to enable structural and functional imaging from nanoscale to organismal scale that are aimed at understanding and treating defects leading to IDDs. The core will also help develop and implement quantitative analytical approaches for image visualization and data analysis. The core will also participate in collaborative IDD-relevant projects that heavily rely on the use of newer technologies. A significant mission of the core will be to train next generation of researchers in the use of advanced microscopy approaches through offering hands on training, educational workshops organized by the core in collaboration with other companies and researches in the greater DC region. CTMC will also collaborate with other DC-IDDRC cores including the Human and Animal Imaging Core, Neurobehavioral Core and Genomics and Bioinformatics Core to serve projects with cross disciplinary needs. Through above endeavors CTMC aims to continue leveraging technological developments in microscopy to enable conception, design, and implementation of these developments to tackle challenges in the field of IDD research and further the mission of DC-IDDRC.

抽象的细胞和组织显微镜核心 (CTMC) 将支持 DC-IDDDRC 研究人员的工作使用高分辨率光学和电子显微镜方法研究细胞和组织。将提供最先进的显微镜成像和分析工具，以支持重点研究儿科疾病，重点是神经发育障碍、胎儿和新生儿脑损伤以及 CTMC 将向乔治国家儿童医院的研究人员提供服务。其中华盛顿大学、乔治城大学和霍华德大学的用户数量不断增长。需要能够以更大的空间和时间分辨率成像的工具，同时还允许功能为了满足这些需求，CTMC 不断扩展其业务范围。服务包括宽场、共焦、活体和多光子显微镜，具有光遗传学操作、光片状显微镜、超分辨率、相关光和 EM 以及大视场 3D-EM。核心将继续满足并扩大其任务发展，以实现结构和功能从纳米尺度到生物尺度的成像，旨在理解和治疗导致 IDD 核心还将帮助开发和实施图像可视化的定量分析方法。核心还将参与严重依赖于 IDD 的协作项目。该核心的一项重要使命是培训下一代研究人员。通过提供实践培训、教育研讨会来使用先进的显微镜方法由核心与大 DC 地区的其他公司和研究机构合作组织。还将与其他 DC-IDDRC 核心合作，包括人类和动物成像核心，神经行为核心以及基因组学和生物信息学核心为具有跨学科需求的项目提供服务。通过上述努力，CTMC 旨在继续利用显微镜技术的发展，实现这些开发的构思、设计和实施，以应对 IDD 领域的挑战研究并进一步履行 DC-IDDRC 的使命。
