## Abstract

Abstract (Enrichment Program)
Extraordinary developments in optical imaging technologies and digital image analysis have opened new
opportunities to study physiology and pathophysiology in ex vivo specimens as well as the live animal.
Techniques such as multiphoton microscopy, FLIM and quantitative 3D cytometry extend our probing reach to
encompass both high resolution subcellular details and large-scale quantitative volume analysis. Dissemination
of these technologies and their application in renal and urologic research has the potential to provide important
new insight that cannot be obtained using other approaches. Therefore, the Enrichment Program serves the
O'Brien Center and the national and international community of researchers in renal and urologic diseases by
making available the technologies and resources developed in the Center to the widest possible range of
investigators. Three specific activities of the Core will accomplish this goal: 1) instructional workshops in years
1, 3 and 5 to bring investigators in the renal and urologic field together with the leading authorities in optical
imaging to obtain hands-on training in advanced methods of optical microscopy in a forum that facilitates
dialogue and problem solving; 2) a visiting speakers program to bring leaders in imaging to interact with Center
investigators and staff and with the local research base; and 3) development of a comprehensive web resource
for dissemination of methods, educational materials and software. These activities of the Core will
complement and extend other informal outreach activities of the other cores comprising this Center. The
Enrichment Program, therefore, is an essential component of the Center that facilitates its service to the
national and international community of investigators in renal and urologic diseases.
