A powerful toolset for genome arithmetic allowing one to address common genomics tasks such as finding feature overlaps and computing coverage. Bedtools allows one to intersect, merge, count, complement, and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.

Global registry of research data repositories from all academic disciplines that allows the easy identification of appropriate research data repositories, both for data producers and users. Information icons display principal attributes of a repository that can be used for multi-faceted searches. Repository operators can suggest their infrastructures to be listed via a simple application form. A repository is indexed when the minimum requirements are met, i.e. mode of access to the data and repository, as well as the terms of use.

Software that automates the creation of uniform, two-dimensional, high analysis graphical images/models of alpha-helical or beta-barrel transmembrane proteins. Protein sequence data and structural information may be acquired from public protein knowledge bases, emanate from prediction algorithms, or even be defined by the user. Several important biological and physical sequence attributes can be embedded in the graphical representation. The application has been written using the platform independent Java language by Sun Microsystems. The implementation is likely to encapsulate the Applet and JavaBean technology. Consequently, the tool, apart from standalone application, may be used as an applet or even embedded in a web-server. Thus, it can serve to exhibit transmembrane protein schematic models in web pages. Requirements for the stand-alone application: Java Runtime Environment 1.4.x The source code is available to any interested party, upon request from the authors.

Unix-like operating system that is free software. GNU (more precisely, GNU/Linux systems) are entirely free software. The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop the GNU system. A Unix-like operating system is a software collection of applications, libraries, and developer tools, plus a program to allocate resources and talk to the hardware, known as a kernel. The Hurd, GNU''s own kernel, is some way from being ready for daily use. Thus, GNU is typically used today with a kernel called Linux. This combination is the GNU/Linux operating system. GNU/Linux is used by millions, though many call it Linux by mistake.

STEPS is a package for exact stochastic simulation of reaction-diffusion systems in realistic, complex 3D geometries. Our core simulation algorithm is an efficient implementation of a variation on Gillespie''s SSA, extended to deal with diffusion of molecules over the elements of a 3D tetrahedral mesh. While it was mainly developed for simulating detailed models of neuronal signaling pathways in dendrites and around synapses, it is a general tool and can be used for studying any biochemical pathway in which spatial gradients and morphology are thought to play a role. We have implemented STEPS as a set of Python modules, which means STEPS users can use Python scripts to control all aspects of setting up the model, generating a mesh, controlling the simulation and generating and analyzing output. The core computational routines are still implemented as C/C++ extension modules for maximal speed of execution.

Graduate School of Genome Science and Technology (GST) is a Life Science graduate program founded on two premises. First, whole-genome sequences and related large-scale datasets have transformed how we perform biological research, a trend that is gathering momentum and is anticipated to frame the way the biology research is accomplished for many years to come. Second, advances in technology, whether at the level of instrumentation, computation, or wet lab reagents, have long been a powerful driving force in biology. The GST program is home to faculty mentors from many walks of life. The virulence factors of pathogenic fungi and the engineering of photosynthetic reaction complexes for bioenergy harvesting are just two examples from the cornucopia of research projects being pursued in GST.

The Statistics and Bioinformatics research group has as its main objectives the development of methods and tools to deal with problems appearing in the interface between Statistics and Bioinformatics. We started focusing in DNA microarrays but we are also interested in statistical methods for ''omics'' data integration and next generation sequencing (NGS). Our group collaborates with different research groups in the fields of biology and biomedicine, to whom it offers statistical support for problems which are specifically statistic in nature, such as experimental design or microarray data analysis, and also in more general aspects, such as modeling, analysis or data mining. After a first period of collaboration agreements with the Fundaci�� Vall d''Hebr��n Institut de Recerca we contributed to the creation of the Statistics and Bioinformatics Unit (UEB) which provides statistical and bioinformatical support to VHIR researchers.

An EEGLAB plugin which adaptively estimates and removes sinusoidal artifacts from independent component analysis (ICA) components or scalp channels using a frequency-domain (multi-taper) regression technique with a Thompson F-statistic for identifying significant sinusoidal artifacts. This approach has been advocated by Partha Mitra and Hemant Bokil (Observed Brain Dynamics, Chapter 7.3.4., 2007) and CleanLine utilizes modified routines from the Mitra Lab's Chronux Toolbox (www.chronux.org). Sinusoidal noise can be a prominent artifact in recorded electrophysiological data. This can stem from AC power line fluctuations (e.g. 50/60 Hz line noise + harmonics), power suppliers (e.g. in medical equipment), fluorescent lights, etc. Notch filtering is generally undesirable due to creation of band-holes, and significant distortion of frequencies around the notch frequency (as well as phase distortion at other frequencies and Gibbs rippling in the time-domain).

Software tool for determining the statistically significant regions of activation in single or multi-subject human brain functional studies. It can be also applied to structural brain data for analyzing developmental, dementia and other changes of anatomy over time. This package was originally developed to work on Sun SPARC and SGI stations using the "C" language compiler provided by Sun/SGI as part of the standard system software.

Interaction database from international collaboration between major public interaction data providers who share curation effort and develop set of curation rules when capturing data from both directly deposited interaction data or from publications in peer reviewed journals. Performs complete curation of all protein-protein interactions experimentally demonstrated within publication and makes them available in single search interface on common website. Provides data in standards compliant download formats. IMEx partners produce their own separate resources, which range from all encompassing molecular interaction databases, such as are maintained by IntAct, MINT and DIP, organism-centric resources such as BioGrid or MPIDB or biological domain centric, such as MatrixDB. They have committed to making records available, via PSICQUIC webservice, which have been curated to IMEx rules and are available to users as single, non-redundant set of curated publications which can be searched at the IMEx website. Data is made available in standards-compliant tab-deliminated and XML formats, enabling to visualize data using wide range of tools. Consortium is open to participation of additional partners and encourages deposition of data, prior to publication, and will supply unique accession numbers which may be referenced within final article. Submitters may send their data directly to any of member databases using variety of formats, but should conform to guidelines as to minimum information required to describe data.
