This program is designed to enhance an institution&#8217;s environment and capability to conduct vision research and to facilitate collaborative studies of the visual system and its disorders.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-style: inherit\"><u>Specific Areas\/Review Criteria<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>NEI-supported Center Cores should consist of discrete units or Cores, each devoted to a specific activity that would be impractical or less efficient to support on an individual research project grant.\u00a0 The purpose of each Core is to support a resource or service that enhances or facilitates the research efforts of a group of independent investigators, each having NEI funding. Cores may involve the purchase and maintenance of shared instruments. Sharing of NEI Center Core Grant resources and services with other NIH-funded collaborators and with investigators new to vision research is encouraged.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>The\u00a0Administrative Core:<\/strong>\u00a0Supports the overall management of the Center Core which includes an organizational structure sufficient to coordinate and integrate the activities of the Resource and Service Cores, and to determine the distribution and utilization of funds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resource Cores: <\/strong>\u00a0Facilitate the production of materials for research, or support the purchase, maintenance, and technical support of shared equipment.\u00a0Examples may include, but are not limited to: confocal microscopy, electron microscopy, tissue and cell culture services, genotyping,\u00a0microarray analysis, mass spectrometry, high throughput sequencing, database management, hybridoma production, laboratory animal resources, image analysis, and brain and eye imaging. Resource Cores\u00a0may also help support computer experts, biostatisticians, and other individuals who can assist or collaborate with participating investigators in conducting vision research.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Service Cores:<\/strong>\u00a0Support essential laboratory or technical services provided by one or more highly skilled persons.\u00a0Examples of this type of core include, but are not limited to an electronics shop, a machine shop, and photography services.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Studies involving human subjects are not allowed.<\/strong> However, Core resources and services can be accessed for secondary studies that use human specimens, cell lines, or data provided that these have been stripped of identifiers and appropriate approvals have been obtained through the individual research grants that support collection of human subject material.<\/p>\n<p>Eligibility<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Only one application per institution is allowed.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>The applicant institution must have 8 or more eligible grants.
