A consortium aiming to facilitate the development and implementation of new treatments for Alzheimer's disease by collectively addressing obstacles to research and development, clinical care and public health education. The Roundtable convenes twice each year for a two-day presentation and discussion of specific topics within Alzheimer's research. Topics are selected from a list proposed and voted on by members. Roundtable members explore a broad range of Alzheimer's science topics, including: * New data and technologies that may improve the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease, especially in its earliest and mildest stages. * Neuropsychological testing, genetic factors, and biochemical and neuroimaging biomarkers that could contribute to an earlier and more accurate Alzheimer's diagnosis. * Lessons learned about clinical trial design that may help shape future clinical trials of drugs aimed at slowing or stopping the progression of Alzheimer's. * The pros and cons of various scales as outcomes measures of clinical trials. The outputs of Roundtable meetings are published as articles in the Alzheimer's Association's journal, Alzheimer's & Dementia. The Research Roundtable also sponsors Alzheimer's Association grants. The chosen project is named Research Roundtable Sponsored Grant and the principal investigator of the project is invited to give a progress report at a Roundtable meeting.

The National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) is a UK-wide partnership between the government, charity and industry which promotes co-operation in cancer research among the 22 member organizations for the benefit of patients, the public and the scientific community. Cancer affects everyone. One third of people in the UK get cancer at some time in their lives and a quarter of all people die from it. This means that even if we don''t have cancer ourselves, we know someone who does, or soon will.

Parkinson''s UK is a Parkinson''s research and support charity in the United Kingdom. In April 2010, the Parkinson''s Disease Society changed its name to become Parkinson''s UK. Its aims are to improve the quality of life for people affected by Parkinson''s and find a cure for the condition. Parkinson''s UK is the largest charity funder of research into Parkinson''s in the UK, it funds research aimed at finding better treatments and improving the understanding of Parkinson''s and its causes. It raises money through donations, legacies, community fundraising, events and corporate partnerships. The charity offers support and information to people affected by Parkinson''s, their families and carers through a network of 350 local groups across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

MaizeDIG is a genotype-phenotype database for maize images. MaizeDIG supports multiple reference genome assemblies, is seamlessly integrated with genome browsers to accommodate custom tracks showing tagged mutant phenotypes images in their genomic context, and allows for custom tagging of images to highlight the phenotypes. This is accomplished through an interface allowing users to create image-to-gene links and is accessible via search tools.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on November 22, 2022. Data set collected at the Children''s Hospital Boston, of EEG recordings from pediatric subjects with intractable seizures. Subjects were monitored for up to several days following withdrawal of anti-seizure medication in order to characterize their seizures and assess their candidacy for surgical intervention. All signals were sampled at 256 samples per second with 16-bit resolution. Most files contain 23 EEG signals (24 or 26 in a few cases).
