The National Eye Institute (NEI) is offering the NEI Center Core Grant, designed to significantly enhance institutional environments for vision research. This grant combines three or more Resource and/or Service Cores, providing a crucial platform for R01 investigators. Its primary purpose is to consolidate resources, avoid duplication, and improve cost-effectiveness in research efforts. By offering shared facilities and access to expensive instrumentation, the grant boosts the productivity of independent projects. It facilitates collaborative studies of the visual system and its disorders, fostering new research aligned with the NEI’s mission and Strategic Plan, thereby strengthening an institution’s capability to conduct high-quality vision research.

| Description: | The NEI Center Core Grant combines three or more Resource and/or Service Cores for a group of R01 investigators to enhance their research, consolidate resources, avoid duplication of efforts, and/or contribute to cost effectiveness by providing a service with lower costs or higher quality than could be attempted for independent projects by several individual Program Directors/Principal Investigators (PD(s)/PI(s)). Shared resources and facilities that are accessible to a group of independently funded investigators lead to greater productivity for the separate projects and can provide instrumentation and facilities that are too costly to be maintained by an individual investigator. The design and purpose of each Center Core may vary in how it serves its users. This program is designed to enhance an institution’s environment and capability to conduct vision research and to facilitate collaborative studies of the visual system and its disorders and promote new research within the NEI mission and Strategic Plan. |
