## Abstract

ALTERATION & RENOVATION
 Project Summary/Abstract
The Translational Hearing Center (THC) has established two functional cores: The Drug
Discovery & Delivery Core (DDDC) and Auditory & Vestibular Technology Core (AVTC) to
promote and enhance translational research on therapeutics for hearing loss. Currently all core
facilities and equipment are located in close proximity to or within the Creighton University Core
Facilities in the Criss I/II/III building complex, with additional satellite AVTCs located in
neighboring institutions: University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) and Boys Town
National Research Hospital (BTNRH). To further empower our services for the Research Project
Leaders (RPLs) and Center Investigators, we plan to align our facilities with our strength by
creating new laboratory spaces through renovation of existing laboratories within first year of the
COBRE award. To facilitate efficient chemical synthesis and analysis and facilitate new
advanced imaging, we seek to renovate medicinal chemistry laboratory Criss II 326 and a new
space for auditory hearing test laboratory Criss I 304. With these renovation projects completed,
THC will have new, centralized laboratories for each core. These can be easily further
expanded and integrated into the Creighton University Core Facilities. These will significantly
enhance our services outlined in our proposal.
