Objective
The mission of the proposed Marie Curie Training Site at the University-Eye-Hospital in Tuebingen "FUNCTION AND DYSFUNCTION OF THE VISUAL SYSTEM" is to apply a multidiscipIinary approach to the understanding of the normal and pathological visual system. To achieve this goal eight research groups are interacting in the fields of cell physiology, molecular biology, retinal and clinical electrophysiology, histology, cell biology , experimental myopia research, psychophysics, colour vision, and molecular genetics. Remarkable recent advances in all of these fields have dramatically improved the prospects for finding new strategies for deciphering the function and dysfunction of the visual system. Indeed, the application of cutting edge interdisciplinary technologies to fundamental visual questions is a driving force behind this proposal. For mutual understanding of the goals and accomplishments in each research discipline, a strong interaction between geneticists, biologists, and ophthalmologists as well as engineers, pharmacologists and physiologists, is imperative. Our training site will allow this goal to be achieved and at the same time provide the opportunity of high impact interactions between the constituent groups in which the fellows will be integrated.
