Open repository of biomedical ontologies that provides access via Web browsers and Web services to ontologies. It supports ontologies in OBO format, OWL, RDF, Rich Release Format (RRF), Protege frames, and LexGrid XML. Functionality includes the ability to browse, search and visualize ontologies as well as to comment on, and create mappings for ontologies. Any registered user can submit an ontology. The NCBO Annotator and NCBO Resource Index can also be accessed via BioPortal. Additional features: * Add Reviews: rate the ontology according to several criteria and describe your experience using the ontology. * Add Mappings: submit point-to-point mappings or upload bulk mappings created with external tools. Notification of new Mappings is RSS-enabled and Mappings can be browsed via BioPortal and accessed via Web services. * NCBO Annotator: Tool that tags free text with ontology terms. NCBO uses the Annotator to generate ontology annotations, creating an ontology index of these resources accessible via the NCBO Resource Index. The Annotator can be accessed through BioPortal or directly as a Web service. The annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using the preferred name and synonyms for terms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the ontology structure (e.g., is_a relations). * NCBO Resource Index: The NCBO Resource Index is a system for ontology based annotation and indexing of biomedical data; the key functionality of this system is to enable users to locate biomedical data linked via ontology terms. A set of annotations is generated automatically, using the NCBO Annotator, and presented in BioPortal. This service uses a concept recognizer (developed by the National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics, University of Michigan) to produce a set of annotations and expand them using ontology is_a relations. * Web services: Documentation on all Web services and example code is available at: BioPortal Web services.

Group of 10 academic laboratories provide pancreatic islets of cGMP-quality to eligible investigators for use in FDA approved, IRB-approved transplantation protocols in which isolated human islets are transplanted into qualified patients afflicted with type 1 diabetes mellitus; optimize the harvest, purification, function, storage, and shipment of islets while developing tests that characterize the quality and predict the effectiveness of islets transplanted into patients with diabetes mellitus; and provide pancreatic islets for basic science studies. The centers are electronically linked through an Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC). The ABCC manages a system with objectively defined criteria that establishes the order of priority for islet distribution. It also provides database and other informatics to track the utilization of pancreata and all distributed clinical grade islets for transplant and basic research, and supports the Islet Cell Resource Centers Consortium so that the research community has a single entry point to the program. Qualified researchers from domestic institutions may request islets by submitting a written application to the director of the ABCC. The ICRs will distribute Islets as appropriate for either clinical or basic science protocol use to eligible investigators who have received a favorable review and subsequent approval by the ICR Steering Committee (SC). The Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC) manages the distribution according to a priority list. The ABCC will give preference to investigators who have peer-reviewed, NIH-funded research support.

The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study is the largest long-term study of brain development and child health in the United States. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded leading researchers in the fields of adolescent development and neuroscience to conduct this ambitious project. The ABCD Research Consortium consists of a Coordinating Center, a Data Analysis and Informatics Center, and 21 research sites across the country (see map), which will invite approximately 10,000 children ages 9-10 to join the study. Researchers will track their biological and behavioral development through adolescence into young adulthood. Using cutting-edge technology, scientists will determine how childhood experiences (such as sports, videogames, social media, unhealthy sleep patterns, and smoking) interact with each other and with a child’s changing biology to affect brain development and social, behavioral, academic, health, and other outcomes. The results of the ABCD Study will provide families; school superintendents, principals, and teachers; health professionals; and policymakers with practical information to promote the health, well-being, and success of children. The ABCD Study, in partnership with the NIMH Data Archive (NDA), is releasing fast-track data containing unprocessed neuroimaging data from ABCD Study participants to date, as well as basic participant demographics (age, sex), including: High-resolution structural data (3D T1 - and T2 - weighted scans) Advanced diffusion MRI (multiple b-values and directions) Resting State fMRI Task fMRI (Monetary Incentive Delay, Stop-Signal, and Emotional N-Back), along with raw E-Prime task files for each fMRI run Neuroimaging data are collected using a harmonized Human Connectome protocol, developed for the ABCD Study, and supported across all three major MRI scanner platforms (Siemens, General Electric, and Philips). Fast track data are in DICOM format as provided by the MRI scanners and have not undergone quality control or curation. As such, these data are most suitable for technical methods development, as the DICOM images would require pre-processing (e.g., distortion correction, movement correction, alignment) to be suitable for data analysis. The ABCD Study is designed to include a diverse population that reflects the demographics of the U.S., however these interim data may not capture that diversity as enrollment is not yet complete. Fast-track data will be released monthly.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on May 23, 2013. Database for resting state functional connectivity studies. Functional connectivity has shown tremendous promise in mapping the intrinsic functional topography of the brain, evaluating neuroanatomical models, and investigating neurological and psychiatric disease. Brainscape includes a repository of public and private data and an analysis engine for exploring the correlation structure of spontaneous fluctuations in the fMRI BOLD signal. (DICOM data is the image format that can be uploaded.) With Brainscape you can upload, analyze, and share your own data. You can search for, download, and analyze studies in the repository of shared data. The analysis engine works by selecting one or more studies, typing in the coordinates of a brain region of interest, and the seed-region correlation engine computes the correlation structure across the whole brain. (T1, T2 and EPI data are the scan types Brainscape can process.) You decide who can access your data. You can keep it to yourself, share with select colleagues, or share it with everyone. The Brainscape database and analysis tools are open source and freely available.
