A locus-specific database aimed at collecting known mutations and non-pathogenic coding variations in the genes related to Alzheimer disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), following the guidelines of the Human Genome Variation Society. Mutations can be retrieved based on the gene, phenotype and publication. The database contains mutations reported in the literature and at scientific meetings, and unpublished mutations directly submitted to the database. To date, AD&FTDMDB contains mutations in the genes encoding the Amyloid Beta Precursor Protein (APP), Presenilin 1 (PSEN1), Presenilin 2 (PSEN2), Chromatin Modifying Protein 2B (CHMP2B), fusion (involved in t(12;16) in malignant liposarcoma) (FUS), Granulin (GRN), Microtubule Associated Protein Tau (MAPT), TAR DNA binding protein (TARDBP) and Valosin-containing Protein (VCP) and holds 415 different mutations observed in 1027 patients or families. As of March 2013, the latest publications referenced were from 2008, indicating that this resource may not be up to date.

Online repository for chicken in situ hybridization information. This site presents whole mount in situ hybridization images and corresponding probe and genomic information for genes expressed in chicken embryos in Hamburger Hamilton stages 1-25 (0.5-5 days). The GEISHA project began in 1998 to investigate using high throughput whole mount in situ hybridization to identify novel, differentially expressed genes in chicken embryos. An initial expression screen of approximately 900 genes demonstrated feasibility of the approach, and also highlighted the need for a centralized repository of in situ hybridization expression data. Objectives: The goals of the GEISHA project are to obtain whole mount in situ hybridization expression information for all differentially expressed genes in the chicken embryo between HH stages 1-25, to integrate expression data with the chicken genome browsers, and to offer this information through a user-friendly graphical user interface. In situ hybridization images are obtained from three sources: 1. In house high throughput in situ hybridization screening: cDNAs obtained from several embryonic cDNA libraries or from EST repositories are screened for expression using high throughput in situ hybridization approaches. 2. Literature curation: Agreements with journals permit posting of published in situ hybridization images and related information on the GEISHA site. 3. Unpublished in situ hybridization information from other laboratories: laboratories generally publish only a small fraction of their in situ hybridization data. High quality images for which probe identity can be verified are welcome additions to GEISHA.

The Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems National Data and Statistical Center (TBINDSC) located at Craig Hospital in Englewood, Colorado, is a central resource for researchers and data collectors within the Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems (TBIMS) program. The primary purpose of the TBINDSC is to advance medical rehabilitation by increasing the rigor and efficiency of scientific efforts to longitudinally assess the experience of individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The TBINDSC provides technical assistance, training, and methodological consultation to 16 TBIMS centers as they collect and analyze longitudinal data from people with TBI in their communities, and as they conduct research toward evidence-based TBI rehabilitation interventions. The project design includes * The first prospective, longitudinal multi-center study ever conducted which examines the course of recovery and outcomes following the delivery of a coordinated system of acute neurotrauma and inpatient rehabilitation. * Includes large scale follow-up to 20 years post-injury. Available from this site are links to the TBIMS Presentation and TBIMS Update, which has information about the individual model systems and descriptions of the injury and followup data that are being collected. 2007-2012 Project Priorities * Improved long-term outcomes of individuals with TBI by conducting 1-2 site-specific research projects to test innovative approaches that contribute to rehabilitation interventions and evaluating TBI outcomes in accordance with the focus areas identified in NIDRR''s Long-Range Plan. * Improved outcomes for individuals with TBI by participating in at least one collaborative research module project, which may range from pilot research to more extensive studies. * Continued assessment of long-term outcomes of TBI by enrolling at least 35 subjects per year into the longitudinal portion of the TBIMS database. * In carrying out research activities, each Center may select from the following research domains: Health and Function, Employment, Participation and Community Living, and Technology for Access and Function. In addition, each Center must: * Provide a multidisciplinary system of rehabilitation care specifically designed to meet the needs of individuals with TBI. The system must encompass a continuum of care, including emergency medical services, acute care services, acute medical rehabilitation services, and post-acute services; and * Coordinate with the NIDRR funded Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center to provide scientific results and information for dissemination to clinical and consumer audiences.

A database which provides ribosome related data services to the scientific community, including online data analysis, rRNA derived phylogenetic trees, and aligned and annotated rRNA sequences. It specifically contains information on quality-controlled, aligned and annotated bacterial and archaean 16S rRNA sequences, fungal 28S rRNA sequences, and a suite of analysis tools for the scientific community. Most of the RDP tools are now available as open source packages for users to incorporate in their local workflow.

PANDIT is a collection of multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees covering many common protein domains. It contains: * the seed protein sequence alignments from the Pfam-A (curated families) database (version 17.0) * nucleotide sequence alignments derived from sequences available for the above and using the protein alignments as "templates"; * protein sequence alignments restricted to the family members for which nucleotide sequences are available * inferred phylogenetic trees for each alignment The data in PANDIT and the dataset's development have been frozen owing to a lack of funding support. The existing data, version 17.0 corresponding to Pfam 17.0, remain stable and, we hope, useful. The entire database is also available for download as a flatfile from this website.

Initiative which defines standards for the description and exchange of aggregations of Web resources. The intent of the effort is to develop standards that generalize across all web-based information including the increasing popular social networks of web 2.0. The goal of these standards is to expose the rich content in these aggregations (sometimes called compound digital objects, they may combine distributed resources with multiple media types including text, images, data, and video) to applications that support authoring, deposit, exchange, visualization, reuse, and preservation. The specific aim of the ORE effort is to promote (through creation or endorsement) effective and consistent mechanisms which: facilitate discovery of compound digital objects; reference (or link to) these objects (as well as parts thereof); obtain a variety of disseminations of these objects; aggregate and disaggregate objects; and enable processing of objects by automated agents.
