A Matlab toolbox for fMRI data analysis using Independent Component Analysis (ICA). It provides an integrated environment to manage, process and analyze fMRI data in a single framework so that users can complete the analysis without switching between software. In addition, it provides an interactive Matlab graphic user interface (GUI). All the necessary processes to apply ICA to fMRI data and review its results can be run from the graphic interface. The FMRLAB processing flow is straightforward. Custom analyses can be performed with Matlab scripts using the FMRLAB functions and data structure. Since fMRI data analysis is a complex enterprise, including digital image processing, statistical analysis and data visualization, an integrated framework combining processing elements is desired eagerly by users in the neuroimaging community. Recently, large number of software tools for data analysis and visualization have been developed for this purpose. However, most of these tools use model-based statistical methods which assume that the users know the hemodynamic response (HR) for their paradigm in advance and can specify a reasonable HR model. Often, however, accurate or reasonable response HR models are unavailable. An alternative data-driven method, infomax ICA (McKeown et al., 1998), does not require that an a priori HR model, instead deriving HRs of spatially independent components of the entire data set from the higher-order statistics of the data themselves. FMRLAB is a toolbox running under Matlab containing necessary components for data-driven fMRI data analysis using the highly reliable infomax ICA algorithm (Bell & Sejnowski, 1995), normalized (Amari, 1999), extended (Lee, Girolami and Sejnowski, 1999) and automated by Makeig et al. FMRLAB has been developed under Matlab 6.1 running on Red Hat Linux. FMRLAB Features * Graphic user interface * Flexible data importing * Interactive data plotting * Computationally efficient * Defined FMRI data structure * Independent component browser * Smooth, transparent component exporting and spatial normalization process * Interface with other software for further analysis or visualization. * SPM-style component plots (MIP, 2-D slice overlay and 3-D)

Tropical Botanic Garden & Research Institute (TBGRI) is an autonomous Institute established by the Government of Kerala on 17th November 1979 and registered on 23rd November 1979 under the Travancore-Cochin Literary, Scientific and Charitable Societies Registration Act, 1955. It functions under the umbrella of the Science, Technology and Environment Department, Government of Kerala. Prof. A. Abraham, a visionary and a great Botanist, conceived the idea of establishing a Botanic Garden and Research Institute to study and conserve the rare and vanishing wild plant genetic resources of the country. Kinded by the spirit of his concept, the Government of Kerala took a far sighted decision resulting in the establishment of Tropical Botanic Garden & Research Institute (TBGRI) as an autonomous organization at Thiruvananthapuram, the capital City of Kerala. In the beginning, the Institute functioned at Thiruvananthapuram city on a rented duplex building. Thanks to the Forests & Wildlife Department, the land for establishment of the garden was allotted in 1983 and the foundation stone was laid on 27th May 1983 by the then Chief Minister, Shri K. Karunakaran. The then Education Minister, the late C. H. Mohammed Koya laid the foundation stone for the construction of the Visiting Scientists'' Guest House. The meeting was presided over by the Minister for Forests, Shri K. P. Noorudeen. With the recruitment of a skeletal scientific and technical staff, the Institute made a modest beginning. Biotechnology and Taxonomy were the two subjects considered to have immediate relevance to the development of the garden. While taxonomists prepared a flora of the garden documenting the native plant wealth before mass introduction and face lift which subsequently followed, the bio-technologists mass multiplied plants of commercial importance, especially orchids for cultivation and distribution to the public. The Royal Botanic Gardens (RBG), Kew played an exemplary and significant role in shaping and design of garden lay out of TBGRI in its formative stages. RBG, Kew not only lent its best men to train our technical staff in gardening and landscaping but also generously supplied books and living plants as gifts to enrich the respective collections. Undoubtedly, the continuing support of RBG, Kew is of special mention in the development of the Garden.

A set of Ruby modules to annotate consequence terms, defined by the Sequence Ontology, of variants (SNP/SNVs, INDELs, SVs, CNAs) using Ensembl gene sets. Prior to annotation of variants an Ensembl gene set and reference coding sequences are loaded into memory from a database file, which can be downloaded or generated by the user from reference files. This allows rapid annotation of variants, making it suitable for annotation of whole genome scale calls. Annotation is performed on a transcript level basis, identifying associated sequence ontology terms for affected and nearby transcripts. Default output can be obtained on a gene basis, summarising the consequences for each gene affected, or on a transcript level basis. Output information is also readily customisable using user-generated scripts.
