# Core Grant for Vision Research

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON · 2020 · $612,000

## Abstract

SUMMARY
The overall goal of our Center Core is to provide expertise, facilities, and equipment to foster and expand
vision research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. This will be accomplished by four Cores. The Vector
and Gene Delivery/Quantitative Molecular Biology Core will facilitate the use of gene delivery methods, qPCR
and other molecular methods by core users. The Pathology and Imaging Core will facilitate the use of confocal
microscopy, fluorescent and light microscopy, histopathology, specialized tissue staining methods, and image
analysis by core users. The Animal Models and Organ Culture Core will facilitate the use of non-human
primate, rodent and other animal models of ocular disease, the use of OCT, ERG, VEP to assess visual
function, and the use of other visual structure and function outcome measures. The Biostatistics and
Epidemiology Resource Core will facilitate proper study designs, the use of power calculations, proper use of
statistical measures of significance, and proper data analysis methods for Core users.
