A Perl-based visualization software tool that generates circular figures of genome-associated data. Common uses of the tool include: * Displaying the sequence and/or genes in a GenBank flat file. * Highlighting differences and/or similarities in gene content between related organisms. * Comparing SNPs and indels between closely-related strains or serovars. * Comparing gene expression values across multiple samples or timepoints. * Visualizing coverage plots of RNA-Seq read alignments.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on June 8, 2020.Macaque genomic and proteomic resources and how they are providing important new dimensions to research using macaque models of infectious disease. The research encompasses a number of viruses that pose global threats to human health, including influenza, HIV, and SARS-associated coronavirus. By combining macaque infection models with gene expression and protein abundance profiling, they are uncovering exciting new insights into the multitude of molecular and cellular events that occur in response to virus infection. A better understanding of these events may provide the basis for innovative antiviral therapies and improvements to vaccine development strategies.

Interaction database from international collaboration between major public interaction data providers who share curation effort and develop set of curation rules when capturing data from both directly deposited interaction data or from publications in peer reviewed journals. Performs complete curation of all protein-protein interactions experimentally demonstrated within publication and makes them available in single search interface on common website. Provides data in standards compliant download formats. IMEx partners produce their own separate resources, which range from all encompassing molecular interaction databases, such as are maintained by IntAct, MINT and DIP, organism-centric resources such as BioGrid or MPIDB or biological domain centric, such as MatrixDB. They have committed to making records available, via PSICQUIC webservice, which have been curated to IMEx rules and are available to users as single, non-redundant set of curated publications which can be searched at the IMEx website. Data is made available in standards-compliant tab-deliminated and XML formats, enabling to visualize data using wide range of tools. Consortium is open to participation of additional partners and encourages deposition of data, prior to publication, and will supply unique accession numbers which may be referenced within final article. Submitters may send their data directly to any of member databases using variety of formats, but should conform to guidelines as to minimum information required to describe data.

https://simtk.org/home/contrack

An algorithm for identifying pathways that are known to exist between two regions within DTI data of anisotropic tissue, e.g., muscle, brain, spinal cord. The ConTrack algorithms use knowledge of DTI scanning physics and apriori information about tissue architecture to identify the location of connections between two regions within the DTI data. Assuming a course of connection or pathway between these two regions is known to exist within the measured tissue, ConTrack can be used to estimate properties of these connections in-vivo.

https://simtk.org/home/simbody

This project is a SimTK Core toolset providing general multibody dynamics capability, i.e., the capability to solve Newton's 2nd law F=ma in any set of coordinates. The techniques of rigid body mechanics are used to provide results in Order(n) time for any set of n coordinates. This can be used for internal coordinate modeling of molecules, or for coarse-grained models based on larger chunks. It is also useful for large-scale mechanical models, such as neuromuscular models of human gait. Simbody is provided as an open source, object-oriented C++ API and delivers high-performance, accuracy-controlled science/engineering-quality results. Binaries of this software are bundled with other SimTK Core modules.

http://www.cognitiveatlas.org/

Knowledge base (or ontology) that characterizes the state of current thought in cognitive science that captures knowledge from users with expertise in psychology, cognitive science, and neuroscience. There are two basic kinds of knowledge in the knowledge base. Terms provide definitions and properties for individual concepts and tasks. Assertions describe relations between terms in the same way that a sentence describes relations between parts of speech. The goal is to develop a knowledge base that will support annotation of data in databases, as well as supporting improved discourse in the community. It is open to all interested researchers. A fundamental feature of the knowledge base is the desire and ability to capture not just agreement but also disagreement regarding definitions and assertions. Thus, if you see a definition or assertion that you disagree with, then you can assert and describe your disagreement. The project is led by Russell Poldrack, Professor of Psychology and Neurobiology at the University of Texas at Austin in collaboration with the UCLA Center for Computational Biology (A. Toga, PI) and UCLA Consortium for Neuropsychiatric Phenomics (R. Bilder, PI). Most tasks used in cognitive psychology research are not identical across different laboratories or even within the same laboratory over time. A major advantage of anchoring cognitive ontologies to the measurement level is that the strategy for determining changes in task properties is easier than tracking changes in concept definitions and usage. The process is easier because task parameters are usually (if not always) operationalized objectively, offering a clear basis to judge divergence in methods. The process is also easier because most tasks are based on prior tasks, and thus can more readily be considered descendants in a phylogenetic sense.

A disease / disorder relationships explorer and a sample of a map-oriented scientific work. It uses the Human Disease Network dataset and allows intuitive knowledge discovery by mapping its complexity. The Human Disease Network (official) dataset, a poster of the data and related book (Biology - The digital era, ISBN: 978-2-271-06779-1) are available. This kind of data has a network-like organization, and relations between elements are at least as important as the elements themselves. More data could be integrated to this prototype and could eventually bring closer phenotype and genotype. Results should be visual, but also printable. Creating posters can enhance collaborative work. It facilitates discussion and sharing of ideas about the data. This website initiative is an invitation to think about the benefits of networks exploration but above all it tries to outline future designs of scientific information systems.
