For each developmental stage (using the staging system defined by Theiler), the Mouse Anatomical Dictionary organizes the terms hierarchically from body region or system to tissue to tissue substructure. Modeling the anatomy hierarchically makes it possible to record expression results from assays with differing spatial resolution in a consistent and integrated manner. The Mouse Anatomical Dictionary Browser lets you navigate the extensive dictionary hierarchies for the different developmental stages, locate specific anatomical structures within those hierarchies, and see the expression results associated with those structures. Stages 1 through 26 (embryonic development) are being developed at the Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Edinburgh, Scotland and the MRC Human Genetics Unit, Edinburgh, as part of The Mouse Atlas and 3D Graphical Gene Expression Database Project. Stage 28 (postnatal mouse) is being developed by the Gene Expression Database Project at The Jackson Laboratory.

An independent, not-for-profit organization, The Joint Commission accredits and certifies more than 19,000 health care organizations and programs in the United States. Joint Commission accreditation and certification is recognized nationwide as a symbol of quality that reflects an organization''s commitment to meeting certain performance standards. The Joint Commission is the nation''s oldest and largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care. To earn and maintain The Joint Commission''s Gold Seal of Approval, an organization must undergo an on-site survey by a Joint Commission survey team at least every three years. (Laboratories must be surveyed every two years.) Our Mission: To continuously improve health care for the public, in collaboration with other stakeholders, by evaluating health care organizations and inspiring them to excel in providing safe and effective care of the highest quality and value. Vision Statement: All people always experience the safest, highest quality, best-value health care across all settings.

The Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB) was established in 1987 at the National University of Singapore (NUS) before becoming an autonomous research institute (RI) of A*STAR. Its mission is to develop and foster a vibrant research culture for cutting-edge basic biomedical sciences and for training high-quality Ph.D. students for the flourishing biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries in Singapore. Funded primarily by the Biomedical Research Council (BMRC) of A*STAR, IMCB now boasts about 30 core research labs and 8 core facility units consisting of over 300 research scientists in total. IMCB''s research activities focus on six major fields: Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, Structural Biology, Infectious Diseases, Cancer Biology and Translational Research with core strengths in cell cycling, cell signalling, cell death, cell motility and protein trafficking. IMCB continues to strive for excellence in biomedical R&D to see the vision of Singapore being a world class hub for the Biomedical Sciences in Asia and beyond. IMCB''s achievements include being part of the international consortium that successfully sequenced the entire pufferfish (Fugu rubripes) in 2002. IMCB was awarded the Nikkei Prize 2000 for Technological Innovation in recognition of its growth into a leading international research centre and its collaboration with industry and research institutes worldwide. IMCB continues to publish in renowned international journals, with more than 1300 publications to its credit since 1987.

NBRP-Rat was established to overcome limitations associated with properly utilizing existing rat resources. The collection of existing strains and genetic sub strains, phenotypic and genotypic characterization, cryopreservation of embryos, distribution of the collected rat strains, and a publicly accessible database of all assembled data are the major goals of this project. Once achieved, this unique database including the unique rat strains will become a powerful tool for biomedical research. A catalog of comparable, standardized and well characterized rat strains will lead to new and more precise research topics as well as it will facilitate biomedical sciences, drug discovery, advanced chemical research, and contributes to life sciences worldwide. As mentioned before, the major goals of NBRP-Rat are the collection, preservation and supply of rat strains. The repository includes strains from Japan and abroad, spontaneous mutants, congenic and recombinant strains as well as transgenic and mutagenized rats. Deposited rat strains are not only conserved as cryopreserved embryos and sperm. Many reference and frequently used rat strains are also maintained as living animals under SPF conditions. Furthermore, NBRP-rat provides a unique database on various rat strain phenotypes accompanied with basic genetic information. This allows scientists the selection of standardized and research specific strains. The animals themselves are provided free of charge to the research community (except for shipping costs). Sponsors: This project is one part of the National BioResource Projects (NBRP) in Japan for more than 20 species including animals, plants, microbes, tissues and DNAs. It is founded by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (Monkasho) and started in 2002.

Integrated database resource consisting of 16 main databases, broadly categorized into systems information, genomic information, and chemical information. In particular, gene catalogs in completely sequenced genomes are linked to higher-level systemic functions of cell, organism, and ecosystem. Analysis tools are also available. KEGG may be used as reference knowledge base for biological interpretation of large-scale datasets generated by sequencing and other high-throughput experimental technologies.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on April 14,2022. Database of comprehensive information on the approximately 600 prokaryote species that are present in the human oral cavity. The majority of these species are uncultivated and unnamed, recognized primarily by their 16S rRNA sequences. The HOMD presents a provisional naming scheme for the currently unnamed species so that strain, clone, and probe data from any laboratory can be directly linked to a stably named reference entity. The HOMD links sequence data with phenotypic, phylogenetic, clinical, and bibliographic information. Full and partial oral bacterial genome sequences determined as part of this project and the Human Microbiome Project, are being added to the HOMD as they become available. HOMD offers easy to use tools for viewing all publicly available oral bacterial genomes. Data is also downloadable.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 17,2023. Project that brings together an internationally recognized team of geo- and social-scientists, cyberinfrastructure experts and educators to explore how expert systems can mediate interactions and improve access between scientific fields. To address complex Earth system issues such as climate change and water resources, geoscientists must work across disciplinary boundaries, which requires them to access data outside of their fields. The initial focus is on hydrology, oceans, polar and weather, with the intent to make the technology applicable and available to all the geosciences. The team''s social scientists and educators will research how technology can improve knowledge exchange between scientific communities.

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.

GIRI is a private, non-profit research institution founded in 1994. Our mission is to understand biological processes which alter the genetic makeup of different organisms, as a basis for potential gene therapy and genome engineering techniques. We pursue and promote original peer-reviewed, public domain research on genetic information (DNA sequence data), as well as dissemination of databases and computer software related to this research. Our research is heavily based on computer power and human skills different from those applied in classical molecular biology and genetics.
