NEI Audacious Goal Initiative: Addressing Technical Needs and Opportunities for Imaging the Visual System (U01)
The NEI Audacious Goal Initiative (AGI) strategic planning process (see http://www.nei.nih.gov/audacious) selected the single audacious goal (AG) of regenerating neurons and neural connections in the eye and visual system.
This AG speaks to two conditions, loss of photoreceptor cells (PRC) by
disease or injury and damage to retinal ganglion cells (RGC) as occurs in glaucoma or optic neuropathy.
The AGI process also identified two areas of high programmatic priority, developing new treatments for eye disease using molecular approaches and understanding the intersection of aging and the biologic mechanisms of eye disease.
