A research repository of human brains with neurological disorders and normal controls, recruited through the Autopsy and Brain Donation Program coordinator. The Kathleen Price Bryan Brain Bank contains brains from patients with Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Muscular Dystrophy, and other neurological and dementing disorders. The brain tissue is subjected to a detailed neuropathological evaluation and then stored as fixed and frozen hemispheres, paraffin blocks and histological slides. After receipt of an IRB approved request, tissue is supplied to investigators at Duke University, major medical centers and pharmaceutical companies across the United States and worldwide.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. The Neurologic AIDS Research Consortium (NARC) is supported by the National Institutes of Health to design and carry out clinical trials to improve the therapy for HIV induced neurologic disease, and neurologic conditions associated with the AIDS virus. This consortium was established in 1993 when the NARC grant submitted by David B. Clifford, M.D. of Washington University School of Medicine was funded by the National Institute of Neurologic Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to establish the consortium. Since that time the grant has supported studies of the natural history of neurologic performance in advanced AIDS, treatment of HIV associated peripheral neuropathy, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, and cytomegalovirus.

Nationwide organ and tissue donor registry that is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to the enhancement of organ and tissue donation. They educate the community about the urgent need for donors so no one dies or suffers for lack of donation, honor donors and support organ recipients, living donors and their families. They are cognizant of the many challenges ahead before the day comes when no one will die because a donor organ was not available at the time of need. The Board and Staff of The Living Bank dedicate their efforts to increase the number of registered-informed donors. The programs and services of The Living Bank are: # The Living Donor Bank Program advocates and supports living donors before, during and after the donation process. # Travel Stipend/Donor Support Program assists living donors in arranging transportation and provides stipends if they must travel to donate. # Donor Education Program educates the public regarding the donation and use of organs and tissues and provide donor cards.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on June 28,2022. A network of several university centers in Germany that classifies neurological and psychiatric disorders neuropathologically and collects and provides brain tissue for research. The aim and task of the Brain-Net are: the collection of clinically and neuropathologically well-characterized brain tissue samples; the standardization of neuropathological diagnoses according to internationally accepted criteria; and providing a basis for future research projects using genetic, epidemiological, biometric and other issues to neurological and psychiatric disorders.

The Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) is a Java program for clustering, comparing, and visualizing short time series gene expression data from microarray experiments (~8 time points or fewer). STEM allows researchers to identify significant temporal expression profiles and the genes associated with these profiles and to compare the behavior of these genes across multiple conditions. STEM is fully integrated with the Gene Ontology (GO) database supporting GO category gene enrichment analyses for sets of genes having the same temporal expression pattern. STEM also supports the ability to easily determine and visualize the behavior of genes belonging to a given GO category or user defined gene set, identifying which temporal expression profiles were enriched for these genes. (Note: While STEM is designed primarily to analyze data from short time course experiments it can be used to analyze data from any small set of experiments which can naturally be ordered sequentially including dose response experiments.) Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

A brain bank which collects brain tissue from patients who died from various neurological and psychiatric diseases. These tissues are available for biochemical, molecular biological, and other work groups with the aim of supporting research on the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapy of these diseases. Collected brains are clinically and neuropathologically well-characterized. The collection and distribution of brain tissue samples is an ongoing process. NeuroBiobank Munich offers help with the organization and implementation of autopsies as well as with the neuropathologic diagnostics. The thematic emphasis of the NeuroBiobank Munich is Parkinson's disease and demential degenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. NeuroBiobank Munich coordinates the German national brain tissue bank (BrainNet) and the European brain tissue bank (BrainNet Europe).
