http://freesurfer.net/fswiki/HippocampalSubfieldSegmentation

A software package for automatic segmentation of hippocampal subfields in magnetic resonance imges. Given a pair of T1-weighted and T2-weighted images (the latter acquired using a protocol tuned for hippocampus imaging), ASHS will automatically label main subfields of the hippocampus, and some extra-hippocampal structures, using multi-atlas segmentation. The main method is described in the Yushkevich et al. 2011 Neuroimage paper (http://tinyurl.com/cffrp3p). * execution requires: Advanced Normalization Tools, FSL

National clinical trial registry by Ministry of Health of China to join World Health Organization International Clinical Trial Registration Platform (WHO ICTRP Primary Registry), and the approved Primary Registry of WHO ICTRP. It registers both Chinese and global clinical trials, receives data from Partner Registers certified by the WHO ICTRP, and submits data to the WHO ICTRP Central Repository for global search. Moreover, based upon the talent and technical platform, consisting of Chinese Evidence-based Medicine Centre of Ministry of Health of China, Virtual Research Centre of Evidence-Based Medicine of Ministry of Education of China, Chinese Cochrane Centre, UK Cochrane Centre and International Clinical Epidemiology Network Resource and Training Centre in West China Hospital, Sichuan University (INCLEN CERTC), ChiCTR is responsible for providing consultations on trial design, central randomization service, guidance on the writing of clinical trial reports and relevant training. WHO takes the lead in establishing the global clinical trial registration system, which is agreed upon by governments from all over the world. There are both ethical and scientific reasons for clinical trial registration. Trial participants expect that their contributions to biomedical knowledge will be used to improve health care for everyone. Open access to information about ongoing and completed trials meets the ethical duty to trial participants, and promotes greater trust and public confidence in clinical research. Furthermore, trial registration ensures that the results of all trials can be tracked down and should help to reduce unnecessary duplication of research through greater awareness of existing trials and results. The mission of ChiCTR is to Unite clinicians, clinical epidemiologists, biostatisticians, epidemiologists and health care managers both at home and abroad, to manage clinical trials in a strict and scientific manner, and to promote their quality in China, so as to provide reliable evidences from clinical trials for health care workers, consumers and medical policy decision makers, and also to use medical resources more effectively to provide better service for Chinese people and all human beings. Any trial performed in human beings is considered as a clinical trial, and should be registered before its implementation. All the registered clinical trials will be granted a unique registration number by WHO ICTRP.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/LepChorionDB/

A relational database of Lepidoptera chorion proteins. The proteinaceous Lepidopteran chorions are used in our lab, as a model system towards unraveling the routes and rules of formation of natural protective amyloids. Therefore, we constructed LepChorionDB a relational database, containing all Lepidoptera chorion proteins identified to date. Lepidoptera chorion proteins can be classified in two major protein families, A and B. This classification was based on multiple sequence alignments of conserved key residues, in the central domain of, well characterized, silkmoth chorion proteins. These alignments were used to build Hidden Markov Models in order to search various DataBases. This work was a collaboration of the Department of Cell Biology and Biophysics, University of Athens and the Centre of Immunology & Transplantation Biomedical Research Foundation, Academy of Athens.

http://aias.biol.uoa.gr/OMPdb/

A database of Beta-barrel outer membrane proteins from Gram-negative bacteria. The web interface of OMPdb offers the user the ability not only to view the available data, but also to submit advanced queries for text search within the database''s protein entries or run BLAST searches against the database. The most up-to-date version of the database (as well as all past versions) can be downloaded in various formats (flat text, XML format or raw FASTA sequences). For constructing OMPdb, multiple freely accessible resources were combined and a detailed literature search was performed. The classification of OMPdb''s protein entries into families is based mainly on structural and functional criteria. Information included in the database consists of sequence data, as well as annotation for structural characteristics (such as the transmembrane segments), literature references and links to other public databases, features that are unique worldwide. Along with the database, a collection of profile Hidden Markov Models that were shown to be characteristic for Beta-barrel outer membrane proteins was also compiled. This set, when used in combination with our previously developed algorithms (PRED-TMBB, MCMBB and ConBBPRED) will serve as a powerful tool in matters of discrimination and classification of novel Beta-barrel proteins and whole-genome analyses., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://athina.biol.uoa.gr/bioinformatics/GENEVITO/

A JAVA-based computer application that serves as a workbench for genome-wide analysis through visual interaction. GeneViTo offers an inspectional view of genomic functional elements, concerning data stemming both from database annotation and analysis tools for an overall analysis of existing genomes. The application deals with various experimental information concerning both DNA and protein sequences (derived from public sequence databases or proprietary data sources) and meta-data obtained by various prediction algorithms, classification schemes or user-defined features. Interaction with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) allows easy extraction of genomic and proteomic data referring to the sequence itself, sequence features, or general structural and functional features. Emphasis is laid on the potential comparison between annotation and prediction data in order to offer a supplement to the provided information, especially in cases of poor annotation, or an evaluation of available predictions. Moreover, desired information can be output in high quality JPEG image files for further elaboration and scientific use. GeneViTo has already been applied to visualize the genomes of two microbial organisms: the bacterion Chlamydia trachomatis and the archaeon Methanococcus jannaschii. The application is compatible with Linux or Windows ME-2000-XP operating systems, provided that the appropriate Java Runtime Environment (Java 1.4.1) is already installed in the system.

Consortium of 12 Biomedical sciences research infrastructure (BMS RI) partners to develop a shared e-infrastructure to allow interoperability between data and services in the biological, medical, translational and clinical domains (providing a complex knowledge environment comprising standards, ontologies, data and services) and thus strengthen biomedical resources in Europe. The BMS RIs are on the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI). Connecting several European research infrastructures brings a diversity of ethical, legal and security concerns including data security requirements for participating e-Infrastructures that are storing or processing patient-related data (or biosamples): EATRIS, ECRIN, BBMRI, EuroBioImaging and EMBL-EBI. In addition, INSTRUCT is interested in secure sample transport and in intellectual property rights; Infrafrontier stores high-throughput data from mice. BBMRI with its focus on the availability of biomaterials is currently emphasizing aspects like k-anonymity and metadata management for its data. Sharing of imaging data by Euro-BioImaging poses challenges with respect to anonymisation and intellectual property. Therefore, an ethical, regulatory and security framework for international data sharing that covers these diverse areas and different types of data (e.g. clinical trials data, mouse data, and human genotype and DNA sequence data) is of crucial importance. The outcomes will lead to real and sustained improvement in the services the biomedical sciences research infrastructures offer to the research community. Data curation and sample description will be improved by the adoption of best practices and agreed standards. Many improvements will emerge from new interactions between RIs created by data linkage and networking. Ensuring access to relevant information for all life science researchers across all BMS RIs will enable scientists to conduct and share cutting-edge research.
