It aims to help researchers to utilize information more efficiently from the published association data. This database is freely accessible only for academic users under the GNU GPL PADB indexes the sentences containing "associat*" or "case-control*" or "cohort*" or "meta-analysis" or "systematic review" or "odds ratio*" or "hazard ratio*" or "risk ratio*" or "relative risk*" from PubMed abstracts and automatically extracts the numeric values of odds ratios, hazard ratios, risk ratios and relative risks data when available. PADB automatically identifies HUGO official symbols of human genes using NCBI Entrez Gene data, and each gene is linked to the UCSC genome browser and International HapMap Project database. Furthermore, molecular pathways listed in BioCarta or KEGG databases can be accessed through the link using CGAP gene annotation data. Also, each record in PADB is linked to GAD or HPLD if it is available from those databases. Currently, (Last Update of Database Contents : Dec. 20, 2006) PADB indexes more than 1,500,000 abstracts including about 190,000 risk values ranging from 0.00001 to 4878.9 and 3,442 human genes related to 461 molecular pathways.

VA provides Internships, Postdoctoral Fellowships, and Practicum Training in many sites across the U.S. With about 470 internship positions at 93 locations and 260 postdoctoral fellowship positions at 65 sites funded each year, VA is the largest provider of training in Psychology in the nation. We have continued to expand our training opportunities and added 70 additional positions for the 2011-2012 academic year. These positions included additional internship and postdoctoral positions within existing training programs and the development of new internship programs in Boise ID, Canandaigua NY, Columbia SC, Huntington WV, Indianapolis IN, Madison WI, Philadelphia PA, Tuscaloosa AL, and West Palm Beach FL. In the meantime, the four internships started in 2008 (Anchorage AK, Asheville NC, Iowa City IA, and Richmond VA) have graduated their second classes and have now begun their third year. The internship program in Richmond is accredited through 2017. The other three programs do not yet have APA accreditation, but all have begun the accreditation process. In the interim, graduates of these programs will be eligible for employment as psychologists within the Department of Veterans Affairs just as are graduates from accredited programs. All existing VA Internship and many Postdoctoral Psychology training programs hold APA accreditation status.

A freely accessible on-line systems biology resource devoted to all aspects of protein modification, as well as other post-translational modifications. It provides valuable and unique tools for both cell biologists and mass spectroscopists. PhosphoSite is a human- and mouse-centric database. It includes features such as: viewing the locations of modified residues on molecular models; browsing and searching MS2 records by disease, tissue, and cell line; submitting lists of peptides to identify previously reported genes; searching by sub-cellular localization, treatment, tissues, cell types, cell lines and diseases, and protein types and protein domains; searching for experimentally-verified kinase substrates and viewing preferred substrate motifs; and viewing MS2 spectra for peptides and sites not previously published.

An integrated software system for storing, managing, analyzing, and querying biological pathways at different levels of genetic, molecular, biochemical and organismal detail. The system contains a pathways database and associated tools to store, compare, query, and visualize metabolic pathways. The aim is to develop an integrated database and the associated tools to support computational analysis and visualization of biochemical pathways. At the computational level, PathCase allows users to visualize pathways in multiple abstraction levels, and to pose predetermined and ad hoc queries using a graphical user interface. Pathways are represented as graphs, and implemented as a relational database. The available functional annotations include the identity of the substrate(s), product(s), cofactors, activators, inhibitors, enzymes or other processing molecules, GO-categories of enzymes (as well as GO hierarchy visualizations two-way-linked to PathCase enzymes), EC number information and the associated links, and synonyms and encoding genes of gene products.

An R / bioconductor package for detecting similarity in ordered gene lists. Thereby, either simple lists can be compared or gene expression data can be used to deduce the lists. Significance of similarities is evaluated by shuffling lists or by resampling in microarray data, respectively.

A Matlab toolbox for the statistical analysis of fMRI data. The fMRI data was first converted to percentage of whole volume. The statistical analysis of the percentages was based on a linear model with correlated errors. The design matrix of the linear model was first convolved with a hemodynamic response function modelled as a difference of two gamma functions timed to coincide with the acquisition of each slice. Temporal drift was removed by adding a cubic spline in the frame times to the design matrix (one covariate per 2 minutes of scan time), and spatial drift was removed by adding a covariate in the whole volume average. The correlation structure was modelled as an autoregressive process of degree 1. At each voxel, the autocorrelation parameter was estimated from the least squares residuals using the Yule-Walker equations, after a bias correction for correlations induced by the linear model. The autocorrelation parameter was first regularized by spatial smoothing, then used to "whiten" the data and the design matrix. The linear model was then re-estimated using least squares on the whitened data to produce estimates of effects and their standard errors. In a second step, runs, sessions and subjects were combined using a mixed effects linear model for the effects (as data) with fixed effects standard deviations taken from the previous analysis. This was fitted using ReML implemented by the EM algorithm. A random effects analysis was performed by first estimating the the ratio of the random effects variance to the fixed effects variance, then regularizing this ratio by spatial smoothing with a Gaussian filter. The variance of the effect was then estimated by the smoothed ratio multiplied by the fixed effects variance. The amount of smoothing was chosen to achieve 100 effective degrees of freedom. The resulting T statistic images were thresholded using the minimum given by a Bonferroni correction and random field theory, taking into account the non-isotropic spatial correlation of the errors.

A model of provenance that is designed to meet the following requirements: (1) To allow provenance information to be exchanged between systems, by means of a compatibility layer based on a shared provenance model. (2) To allow developers to build and share tools that operate on such a provenance model. (3) To define provenance in a precise, technology-agnostic manner. (4) To support a digital representation of provenance for any "thing", whether produced by computer systems or not. (5) To allow multiple levels of description to coexist. (6) To define a core set of rules that identify the valid inferences that can be made on provenance representation.
