A non-profit funding resource that allows academic medical researchers to receive funding from donors. Researchers set a fixed amount for donor funding which must be reached within two months to ensure the continuation of the campaign. Consano allows quarterly communication between donors and researchers throughout the term of the project. Some non-academic research is approved to be funded through Consano.

A for-profit funding resource which funds research through the contributions of donors and backers. Scientists can create project profiles which include stated funding goals that must be reached before the end of the campaign. Projects which do not achieve their funding goals will be dropped and no funding from Experiment backers will be received. Three basic criteria must be met before an experiment can receive consideration for funding: The experiment seeks to answer a specific research question, the process and results can be shared openly and transparently, and the researchers have the expertise needed to meet the goals. Additional criteria must be met for academic scientists, individual scientists, and corporate scientists, respectively. Experiments are reviewed by Experiment staff before they are accepted.

A group resource which connects organizations to data scientists who produce accurate predictive models. Kaggle uses competition to incentivize data scientists to create the most accurate and precise predictive models for an organization’s sets of data. The data scientist or team of data scientists who creates the best model is awarded a prize and the organization receives the predictive model.

A gene-based score intended to help in the interpretation of human sequence data. The score is designed to rank genes in terms of whether they have more or less common functional genetic variation relative to the genome wide expectation given the amount of apparently neutral variation the gene has. A gene with a positive score has more common functional variation, and a gene with a negative score has less and is referred to as intolerant.

A software application which tracks EPBs. EPBscore tool uses maximal intensity for the following reasons: 1) the integrated intensity is affected by the sampling density and it is not clear how large an area one should integrate over. This is often determined by ad- hoc criteria with no theoretical justification. 2) The integrated intensity is susceptible to movement artifacts. 3) As shown in (Grillo et al. 2013), the maximal intensity scales over the whole range of EPB intensities is considered. Importantly, the tool successfully minimizes human input by automating the EPB scoring and measurement steps., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A biomaterial resource which stores and distributes dissected human brain samples and topographically oriented tissue blocks. Most brains were removed from the skull and frozen within 2-6 hours after death. The microdissection of 260 different brain nuclei is performed on frozen brains and the samples are kept in -70ºC. Materials must be studied in the course of an approved research project, which has scientific aims and is devoid of any commercial profit for the researches involved and for their respective institutions.

A collaborative project between the Broad Institute and the Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research and its Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation, with the goal of conducting a detailed genetic and pharmacologic characterization of a large panel of human cancer models. The CCLE also works to develop integrated computational analyses that link distinct pharmacologic vulnerabilities to genomic patterns and to translate cell line integrative genomics into cancer patient stratification. The CCLE provides public access to genomic data, analysis and visualization for about 1000 cell lines.
