Comprises 3 registries of cancer patients in Norway: the Incidence Registry, the Clinical Registry and Cancer Statistics. The Incidence Registry contains the basic data items collected from clinicians and pathologists, as well as from administrative discharge and mortality sources. It is updated continuously with information on both new cases, as well as cases diagnosed in previous years. All medical doctors in the country are instructed by law to notify new cancer cases. Clinical Registries: Registration of treatment and follow-up of Norwegian cancer patients. Clinical registries comprehensive registration schemes dedicated to specific cancers have been established to include detailed information on diagnostic measures, therapy, and follow-up. Cancer Statistics: Database of cancer statistics. The Cancer Registry of Norway is maintained by the Institute of Population-based Cancer Research and established in 1951. It is one of the oldest national cancer registries in the world. This, combined with the unique personal identification number used in Norway, makes the Cancer Registry''s data suitable, also internationally; by establishing new knowledge through research and spreading information on cancer.

A forum for scientists specialized in stem cells, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The international board of the ITERA Life-Sciences Forum is composed of researchers and physicians from universities, university hospitals, stem cell and research institutes and biotechnological companies. The annual international ITERA Life-Sciences Forum workshop is dedicated to the latest developments in stem cell research. Cryo-Save, Europe''''s leading provider of stem cell banks, is a founding member of ITERA and sponsors the yearly workshops with an unrestricted educational grant. Members of ITERA Life-Sciences are participating members in three EU-Framework projects: e.a. CRYSTAL and HEPADIP and were recently awarded the HYPERLAB project. The IWT (Agency for Innovation by Science and Technology) recently confirmed that ITERA members will be involved in the HEPSTEM project with participating groups from the Flemish Universities and one research group (KUL, UGENT, VUB and IMEC). ITERA Life Sciences Forum has created this networking to share the knowledge of the academic world with the knowledge of small and middle sized enterprises (SME''''s), with the aim to participate in the Framework programs of the European Union. At the third Workshop in Maastricht (25-26 October 2007) we asked some opinion leaders who participated to explain their actual vision about stem cells of the cord, cord blood and placenta. The videos on what they had to say are available.

A national institute that investigates human development throughout the entire life process, focusing on understanding developmental disabilities, including intellectual and developmental disabilities, and illuminating important events that occur during pregnancy. The NICHD conducts and supports laboratory research, clinical trials, and epidemiological studies that explore health processes; examines the impact of disabilities, diseases, and defects on the lives of individuals; and sponsors training programs for scientists, doctors, and researchers to ensure that NICHD research can continue. The Institute also supports research training across all its programs. In addition, an overarching responsibility of the NICHD is to disseminate information that emanates from Institute research programs to researchers, practitioners, other health care professionals, and the public.

The Toronto Centre for Phenogenomics (TCP) is an innovative, scientific collaboration between four research hospitals to operate a centralized, state-of-the-art research-enabling mouse facility. We conduct and support genetic research involving generation of mutant mice, physiological phenotyping, behavioural analysis, imaging, pathology and cryopreservation for storage and distribution. This joint project involving Mount Sinai Hospital, The Hospital for Sick Children, University Health Network and St. Michael''s Hospital pools resources and expertise to achieve excellence and economies of scale. The TCP opened for operations in October 2007. The centre functions as a regional, national and international resource for mouse models of human disease. This 120,000 square foot facility is located at 25 Orde Street, Toronto, and occupies four floors two below ground and two above. It houses specialized laboratories for mouse generation and analysis and, when fully occupied, it will contain approximately 36,000 cages (180,000 mice). The world-renowned scientific staff studies mammalian gene function, identifies genetic components of complex human disease, produces new mouse models of human disease, develops and tests new cell-based and gene-based therapies, and develops technologies for genome manipulation and phenotypic analysis. The TCP offers state-of-the-art mouse holding and facility support services to academic stakeholders and strategic private sector partners. It houses the Centre for Modeling Human Disease (CMHD), the Canadian Mouse Mutant Repository (CMMR), and the Mouse Imaging Centre (MICe) to provide an array of pre-clinical research services to clients.

An online science magazine with short science articles about everyday life and popular science book reviews. We like science. Thus, we have created this popular science online magazine to describe and explain scientific topics that confront us in our everyday life. These topics can be about natural phenomena, physics of sports, biology and life science, or the physics behind standard devices or common technologies. Additionally, we present and review popular science books. We address the general public in our science articles. Thus, our articles are short and explanations are easy to understand. We use a simple language to explain the science behind everyday topics so that it is fun to read. The texts are suitable for all age groups and also for non native English speakers and ESL classes. Submissions are welcome and after a review process, we would be happy to publish your contribution under your name. We also included a section in which readers can post questions. These posts inspire future articles. Science articles can be used as authentic sources in content-based instruction to teach English Language Learners (ELLs). For this purpose, I have created materials for teaching English in a scientific context. Select Science Niblets articles have been supplemented with relevant activities and additional authentic materials that encourage intercultural discussion and the use of the four receptive and productive language skills: reading, listening, writing and speaking. The theoretical and pedagogical framework that underlie the materials are explained in the teachers'' guide. The materials themselves consist of a lesson plan for the teacher and a learner worksheet that are printable pdf files.
