The Terry Fox Foundation is responsible for supporting close to $20 million in discovery based research each year in Canada - all monies raised outside Canada must be distributed to (a) an institute approved by the Foundation and its advisors or (b) remitted to Canada. The Terry Fox Research Institute (TFRI) is a recipient of TFF funding for translational research. TFRI is an exciting new initiative whose goal is to translate rapidly today''s best science into better cancer treatment and diagnosis for all Canadians. The Institute will bring scientists and clinicians together across the country into a functionally integrated, geographically dispersed Institute with nodes in several provinces. Terry Fox was diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma (bone cancer) in his right leg in 1977 and had his leg amputated 15 cm (six inches) above the knee. While in hospital, Terry was so overcome by the suffering of other cancer patients that he decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. He called his journey the Marathon of Hope. Terry''s Marathon of Hope took place in 1980 with the simple objective of informing Canadians of the importance of finding a cure for cancer. With fierce determination, he ran an average of 42 kilometres (26 miles) every day for 143 days. Terry was forced to end his run on September 1, 1980 when the cancer spread to his lungs. By February 1, 1981, Terry''s dream of raising $1 for every Canadian was realized - the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope fund totaled $24.17 million. Terry died in June 1981. On May 26, 1988, The Terry Fox Run became a Trust, independent from the Canadian Cancer Society, and received tax-exempt charitable registration as a public foundation. In addition to our signature and long-standing National Terry Fox Run Day in September of each year, The Terry Fox Foundation is proud to include in its events portfolio The National School Run Day. The Foundation recognizes the duality of its mandate. Not only does it raise money for research, but it also continues to share the story of Terry Fox. The Terry Fox Foundation strives to maintain the heroic effort and integrity that Terry embodied. It is a grassroots organization that does not allow the Terry Fox name or likeness to be commercialized or conjoined with other worthy causes. To date, over $600 million has been raised worldwide for cancer research in Terry''s name.

The Characterized Protein Database, CharProtDB, is designed and being developed as a resource of expertly curated, experimentally characterized proteins described in published literature. For each protein record in CharProtDB, storage of several data types is supported. It includes functional annotation (several instances of protein names and gene symbols) taxonomic classification, literature links, specific Gene Ontology (GO) terms and GO evidence codes, EC (Enzyme Commisssion) and TC (Transport Classification) numbers and protein sequence. Additionally, each protein record is associated with cross links to all public accessions in major protein databases as ��synonymous accessions��. Each of the above data types can be linked to as many literature references as possible. Every CharProtDB entry requires minimum data types to be furnished. They are protein name, GO terms and supporting reference(s) associated to GO evidence codes. Annotating using the GO system is of importance for several reasons; the GO system captures defined concepts (the GO terms) with unique ids, which can be attached to specific genes and the three controlled vocabularies of the GO allow for the capture of much more annotation information than is traditionally captured in protein common names, including, for example, not just the function of the protein, but its location as well. GO evidence codes implemented in CharProtDB directly correlate with the GO consortium definitions of experimental codes. CharProtDB tools link characterization data from multiple input streams through synonymous accessions or direct sequence identity. CharProtDB can represent multiple characterizations of the same protein, with proper attribution and links to database sources. Users can use a variety of search terms including protein name, gene symbol, EC number, organism name, accessions or any text to search the database. Following the search, a display page lists all the proteins that match the search term. Click on the protein name to view more detailed annotated information for each protein. Additionally, each protein record can be annotated.

We are in process of collecting PDB datasetsfrom literature and maintaining at ccPDB. We are also requesting community to suggest datasets. In addition, we generate datasets from PDB, these datasets were generated using commonly used standard protocols like non-redundant chains, structures solved at high resolution. * Creation of datasets: This module developed for creating customized datasets where user can create a dataset using his/her conditions from PDB. This module will be useful for those users who wish to create a new dataset as per ones requirement. This module have six steps, which are described in help page. * Web Services: We integrated following web services in ccPDB; i) Analyze of PDB ID service allows user to submit their PDB on around 40 servers from single point, ii) BLAST search allows user to perform BLAST search of their protein against PDB, iii) Structural information service is designed for annotating a protein structure from PDB ID, iv) Search in PDB facilitate user in searching structures in PDB, v)Generate patterns service facility to generate different types of patterns required for machine learning techniques and vi) Download useful information allows user to download various types of information for a given set of proteins (PDB IDs). * Important Links: One of major objectives of this web site is to provide links to web servers related to functional annotation of proteins. In first phase we have collected and compiled these links in different categories. In future attempt will be made to collect as many links as possible.

TrED is a database of Trichophyton rubrum, a fungus. The database contains strains, cDNA libraries, pathways, and microarray data as well as a directed set of literature. Trichophyton rubrum is the most common dermatophyte species and the most frequent cause of fungal skin infections in humans worldwide. It''''s a major concern because feet and nail infections caused by this organism is extremely difficult to cure. A large set of expression data including expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and transcriptional profiles of this important fungal pathogen are now available. Careful analysis of these data can give valuable information about potential virulence factors, antigens and novel metabolic pathways. We intend to create an integrated database TrED to facilitate the study of dermatophytes, and enhance the development of effective diagnostic and treatment strategies. All publicly available ESTs and expression profiles of T. rubrum during conidial germination in time-course experiments and challenged with antifungal agents are deposited in the database. In addition, comparative genomics hybridization results of 22 dermatophytic fungi strains from three genera, Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton, are also included. ESTs are clustered and assembled to elongate the sequence length and abate redundancy. TrED provides functional analysis based on GenBank, Pfam, and KOG databases, along with KEGG pathway and GO vocabulary. It is integrated with a suite of custom web-based tools that facilitate querying and retrieving various EST properties, visualization and comparison of transcriptional profiles, and sequence-similarity searching by BLAST. TrED is built upon a relational database, with a web interface offering analytic functions, to provide integrated access to various expression data of T. rubrum and comparative results of dermatophytes. It is devoted to be a comprehensive resource and platform to assist functional genomic studies in dermatophytes.

The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation currently makes grants in five core program areas: * Higher Education and Scholarship * Scholarly Communications and Information Technology * Art History, Conservation, and Museums * Performing Arts * Conservation and the Environment Within each of its core programs, the Foundation concentrates most of its grantmaking in a few areas. Institutions and programs receiving support are often leaders in fields of Foundation activity, but they may also be promising newcomers, or in a position to demonstrate new ways of overcoming obstacles to achieve program goals. Our grantmaking philosophy is to build, strengthen and sustain institutions and their core capacities, rather than be a source for narrowly defined projects. As such, we develop thoughtful, long-term collaborations with grant recipients and invest sufficient funds for an extended period to accomplish the purpose at hand and achieve meaningful results.

SIMILE, a joint project conducted by the MIT Libraries and MIT CSAIL, was focused on developing robust, open source tools that empower users to access, manage, visualize and reuse digital assets. SIMILE seeks to enhance interoperability among digital assets, schemata/vocabularies/ontologies, metadata, and services. A key challenge is that the collections which must inter-operate are often distributed across individual, community, and institutional stores. We seek to be able to provide end-user services by drawing upon the assets, schemata/vocabularies/ontologies, and metadata held in such stores. SIMILE will leverage and extend DSpace, enhancing its support for arbitrary schemata and metadata, primarily though the application of RDF and semantic web techniques. The project also aims to implement a digital asset dissemination architecture based upon web standards. The dissemination architecture will provide a mechanism to add useful views to a particular digital artifact (i.e. asset, schema, or metadata instance), and bind those views to consuming services. To guide the SIMILE effort we will focus on well-defined, real-world use cases in the libraries domain. Since parallel work is underway to deploy DSpace at a number of leading research libraries, we hope that such an approach will lead to a powerful deployment channel through which the utility and readiness of semantic web tools and techniques can be compellingly demonstrated in a visible and global community. The SIMILE Project and its members are fully committed to the open source principles of software distribution and open development and for this reason, it releases the created intellectual property (both software and reports) under a BSD-style license. The SIMILE Project Team Members gladly welcome community efforts.
