Portal to neuroanatomical information on the Web that helps you identify structures in the brain and provides a variety of information about each structure by porting you to the best of 1500 web pages at 100 other neuroscience sites. BrainInfo consists of three basic components: NeuroNames, a developing database of definitions of neuroanatomic structures in four species, their most common acronyms and their names in eight languages; NeuroMaps, a digital atlas system based on 3-D canonical stereotaxic atlases of rhesus macaque and mouse brains and programs that enable one to map data to standard surface and cross-sectional views of the brains for presentation and publication; and the NeuroMaps precursor: Template Atlas of the Primate Brain, a 2-D stereotaxic atlas of the longtailed (fascicularis) macaque brain that shows the locations of some 250 architectonic areas of macaque cortex. The NeuroMaps atlases will soon include a number of overlays showing the locations of cortical areas and other neuroscientific data in the standard frameworks of the macaque and mouse atlases. Viewers are encouraged to use NeuroNames as a stable source of unique standard terms and acronyms for brain structures in publications, illustrations and indexing systems; to use templates extracted from the NeuroMaps macaque and mouse brain atlases for presenting neuroscientific information in image format; and to use the Template Atlas for warping to MRIs or PET scans of the macaque brain to estimate the stereotaxic locations of structures.

Coordinated and targeted service, training, and research to speed the development and enhance the utility of informatics tools related to neuroimaging. The initial focus will be on tools that are used in fMRI. If NIfTI proves useful in addressing informatics issues in the fMRI research community, it may be expanded to address similar issues in other areas of neuroimaging. Objectives of NIfTI * Enhancement of existing informatics tools used widely in neuroimaging research * Dissemination of neuroimaging informatics tools and information about them * Community-based approaches to solving common problems, such as lack of interoperability of tools and data * Unique training activities and research career development opportunities to those in the tool-user and tool-developer communities * Research and development of the next generation of neuroimaging informatics tools

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 9, 2016. A web server that allows users to efficiently identify and prioritize high-risk SNPs according to their phenotypic risks and putative functional effects. A unique feature is that the functional effect information used for SNP prioritization is always up-to-date, because FASTSNP extracts the information from 11 external web servers at query time using a team of web wrapper agents. Moreover, FASTSNP is extendable by deploying more Web wrapper agents. FASTSNP provides three options for users to submit requests. If users already have some candidate SNPs on a candidate gene, they may use Query by Candidate Gene to select the specific SNPs on the gene to perform prioritization. If users have a specified SNP or a list of SNP rsid's needs to be prioritized, they can use Query by SNP option and upload the SNP list in an Excel-format file. Finally, if users have a novel SNP sequence, FASTSNP provides Novel SNP analysis. FASTSNP will generate a SNP Function Report for each SNP. Users can export SNP data to an excel file for further genotyping processes. Other features of FASTSNP include SNP quality checking and haplotype LD information.

Software automated tool for analysis and determination of Nuclear Localization Signals (NLS). Predicts that your protein is nuclear or finds out whether your potential NLS is found in our database. The program also compiles statistics on the number of nuclear/non-nuclear proteins in which your potential NLS is found. Finally, proteins with similar NLS motifs are reported, and the experimental paper describing the particular NLS are given.

A multidisciplinary and multi-institutional research consortium to develop and evaluate the most effective early interventions possible for the detection, prevention, and treatment of combatrelated posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in activeduty military personnel and recently discharged veterans. Complementary investigations are focused on the root causes of PTSD, including biological factors that influence PTSD susceptibility and recovery; the influence of comorbid physical and psychological ailments; and the interaction of cognitive-behavioral therapies and pharmacologic treatments. The full cohort of STRONG STAR trials include: Treatment Studies, Biological Studies, Epidemiological Studies, and Preclinical Studies. STRONG STAR is currently conducting three clinical treatment trials at Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center (CRDAMC). The studies are examining the effectiveness of Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) with active duty service members. Treatments are offered in individual, group, and online formats, and last from two to eight weeks. Study participants must be active duty service members who will remain in the Ft Hood area for at least 34 months to complete initial assessments and treatment programs. Referrals to the treatment studies can be made through a behavioral health provider or through selfreferral., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

FRAXA's mission is to accelerate progress toward effective treatments and ultimately a cure for Fragile X, by directly funding the most promising research. FRAXA also supports families affected by Fragile X and raises awareness of this important but relatively unknown disease. FRAXA was founded in 1994 by three parents of children with Fragile X, Katie Clapp, Michael Tranfaglia MD, and Kathy May, to support scientific research aimed at finding a treatment and a cure for Fragile X. Fragile X research is drastically underfunded, considering its high prevalence, prospects for a cure, and the promise that this research holds for advancing understanding of other disorders like autism, Alzheimer's disease, and X-linked mental retardation. FRAXA funds grants and fellowships at universities all over the world. We have funded more than $17 million dollars in top-notch science. FRAXA's management expenses have always been just 4% or less of income, as we have just one full-time staff, three part time staff, and hundreds of volunteer parents. Since FRAXA was founded, the Fragile X field has grown tremendously, due in large part to our grass-roots efforts. You can help us accomplish much more. FRAXA is a 501c3 tax-exempt organization; Tax ID 04-3222167
