Core
Structure With Contact Links
The following core descriptions contain e-mail links to core
directors and in some case technical directors. IDDRC Administrative
Core can also be used to contact various core components.
Core
A - Administration and Biometry Core
Co-directors: Alan K. Percy, M.D., Bruce
Korf, M.D.,
and Harald Sontheimer, Ph.D.
The
overall objective of the Administrative and Biostatistics Core
(Core A) is to provide administrative support services to investigators
at the UAB IDDRC including scientific and administrative leadership
for the IDDRC as a whole and management of the fiscal and personnel
activities necessary to achieve the objectives of the IDDRC. Detailed
Core A description
Research Core B - Recombinant Technologies
Co-Directors: Michael
Brenner, Ph.D. and Anne
Theibert, Ph.D.
Core Contact: Scott Phillips, Ph.D., Technical
Director, Phone 205-975-2333. Core is located in SHEL 960,962, and 972.
The
Recombinant Technologies Core (Core B) is designed to fulfill critical
gaps in core support for projects related to developmental neurobiology.
Specifically, this core along with Core C has been designed to serve
as a cost-effective, intellectual and technical focal point for the bench
scientists who address issues of nervous system development and function
that are germane or directly related to IDD. Detailed
Core B description
Research
Core C - Developmental Neurobiology Imaging and Tissue
Processing
Director: Lucas
D. Pozzo-Miller, Ph.D.
The
Developmental Neurobiology Imaging and Tissue Processing Core
provides state-of-the-art equipment and technical support for
experimental projects on the assembly and modulation of synaptic,
neuronal, and glial structure and function. By sharing technical
expertise, equipment, facilities, and professional staff, the
Core facilitates cost-effective, cross-project collaborations.
Detailed Core C description
Research
Core D - Developmental Genomics
Co-directors: Bruce
Korf, M.D. and Ludwine
Messiaen, Ph.D.
The
Developmental Genomics Core (Core D) represents a new component
of the UAB IDDRC created by integrating the resources from three
existing groups: the Genomics Core Laboratory of the GCRC, the
Heflin Center for Human Genetics, and the Medical Genomics Laboratory
of the Department of Genetics. Detailed
Core D description
UAB
fMRI Laboratory
Director: David
Knight, Ph.D.
Provides clinical functional magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy capability,
equipment for advanced IDD imaging variants such as functional fMRI and fMRI/EEG,
technical support for data collection, and assistance in study design for researchers
interested in utilizing non-invasive assessments of clinical populations.
