## Abstract

Stanford Vision Research Core: Overall Component
PROJECT SUMMARY
 The Stanford vision research community is comprised of an impressive array of faculty
bridging all levels of vision research, from molecular to cellular to circuits to systems, from
development to adult to disease. The Stanford Vision Research Core grant will bring 4 modules
to this community: (1) Advanced Computing/Computational Core, (2) Device Design and
Development, (3) Neurogenetics of Vision, and (4) Imaging Structure and Function. These cores
will be positioned to amplify the considerable resources Stanford University is devoting to the
growth of vision research, including new faculty recruiting in the Department of Ophthalmology
and the Stanford Neurosciences Institute and new space allocation to wet- and dry-lab vision
research, as well as commitments from the Department of Ophthalmology for additional
administrative capacities. Bringing these 4 cores to this community will help us achieve a number
of specific outcomes. 1) We will extend the reach of vision research among the NEI-funded
investigators at Stanford: by providing core resources and services to investigators, this grant
will centralize specialty capacity, allowing faculty to benefit from the ready availability of such
expertise. 2) We will accelerate discoveries in these laboratories: the availability of new
resources that specifically target areas of need across the vision research community at Stanford
will allow research to move more quickly into new, cutting edge areas of innovation. 3) We will
promote inter-disciplinary collaboration that bridges molecular through systems level
vision research: The selection of these 4 cores also carries a specific intention to bring vision
research at Stanford into a “next-generation” position bridging across disciplines. Offering these
tools, with cell- and species-compatible vectors, device development, advanced imaging, and the
computational power to extract relevant data from these, will facilitate this bridging. Finally, 4) We
will attract new faculty at junior through senior levels into vision research: by providing
tools specific to vision research, and making these tools available broadly to the Stanford research
community, we will facilitate entry into vision research by both seasoned investigators in other
fields, and newly recruited junior investigators poised to become the next generation of leaders in
vision research.
