NEI Center Core Grant for Vision Research
Funds shared core facilities — at least three resource or service cores — that support a group of NEI-funded vision researchers at one institution.
A dozen vision researchers each buying their own imaging rig or histology setup is expensive and redundant. This award pays for the shared version instead — a set of core facilities one institution's NEI-funded investigators use together.
The design has a floor: an administrative core plus three or more resource or service cores, built around a group of investigators who already hold NEI R01 fund…
Institutional core infrastructure combining three or more resource or service cores to support a group of NEI R01-funded vision researchers at one institution, cutting duplicated cost and equipment across independently funded projects; every core sits under one administrative core, and access is open to any researcher at the institution.
