# UW Vision Research Core

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON · 2021 · $622,000

## Abstract

SUMMARY
The overall goal of our Vision Research 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 Eye Organ Culture Core will facilitate the use of
non-human primate, feline, 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.
