项目摘要

The overarching scientific goal of the Delaware Center for Neuroscience Research is to support and bring together neuroscientists working at multiple scales, from human subjects to animal models, to improve our understanding of the dynamic function of the human brain. The University of Delaware has made a significant investment into building a capability in human neuroimaging—purchasing a cutting edge 3T MRI scanner with advanced capabilities to map brain structure and function, and the establishment of the Center for Biomedical and Brain Imaging, which is planned to expand to encompass small animal MRI and other imaging technologies. By combining animal and human neuroimaging, our Core will serve to bring together biologists, psychologists, kinesiologists and others who image the human brain, with molecular, cellular and behavioral neuroscientists who use animal models, and will support collaborations focusing on multi-scale investigations of the architecture and functional activity of the brain. To achieve these objectives, there are three specific aims: 1) To provide state-of-the-art neuroimaging of human subjects and rodent models to serve the research needs of COBRE-supported investigators. 2) To provide neuroscience researchers in Delaware with consultation and coordination, technical assistance, and educational opportunities in functional neuroimaging in humans and animals in support of experimental design, data acquisition and analysis. 3) To advance cutting-edge neuroimaging research and grow the user base in Delaware by serving as a resource for current investigators and recruitment of outstanding new hires.

特拉华州神经科学研究中心的总体科学目标是支持并将从人类受试者到动物模型到动物模型的多个尺度上工作的神经科学家聚集在一起提高我们对人脑动态功能的理解。特拉华大学有为建立人类神经影像的能力做出了重大投资 3T MRI扫描仪具有绘制大脑结构和功能的高级功能，并建立生物医学和脑成像中心计划扩展以包含小动物MRI 和其他成像技术。通过结合动物和人类神经影像学，我们的核心将有助于将生物学家，心理学家，运动机业学家和其他人汇集使用动物模型的分子，细胞和行为神经科学家，并将支持合作专注于大脑结构和功能活性的多尺度研究。实现这些目标，有三个具体的目的：1）提供人类的最先进的神经影像学受试者和啮齿动物模型可满足毛绒支持的研究人员的研究需求。 2）提供特拉华州的神经科学研究人员通过咨询和协调，技术援助以及人类和动物功能神经影像学的教育机会，以支持实验设计，数据获取和分析。 3）提高最先进的神经影像学研究并发展用户通过作为当前调查人员的资源并招募杰出新的新的，在特拉华州的基础雇用。
