The LVC64 accepts 64 microvolt-level buffered input signals from headstage preamps and serves as a 24-bit recording device. It is connected to a PC with an USB2.0 cable and provides a complete digital system to record broadband bioelectric signals. It has two parts such as a 64-channel ADC unit and a digital interface & power supply unit. Between these units there is a slip ring commutator and a DC motor. The main features of the LVC system include: Up to 128 Analog inputs per system; Each Analog input is sampled with an individual 24 bit delta-sigma A/D converter Analog inputs are simultaneously sampled at 1750 to 32000 samples per second In addition to multiple unit activity - the EEG, field potentials and behavioral marker signals are recorded simultaneously in the same file Full scale analog input range is 5 millivolts RMS (14 mV peak-to-peak) Analog inputs are differential inputs Extremely low input referred noise levels of max. 8 uV peak-to-peak Direct headstage tether and tether extension cable inputs Slip ring commutator for un-twisting the twisted tether cable Headstage power supplies Up to 24 bit TTL compatible Parallel Input Port for monitoring external signals and external Timestamp Clock input and output for multiple system synchronization Totally electrically isolated system from AC Power and Ground ''Microvolts-to-harddisk dumper'' data acquisition program running in host PC (32-bit MS Window XP) Online display of records during data acquisition in Host PC''s monitor Offline spike sorting by Cooperative Linux software of the Host PC

http://eyewire.org/

An online game for mapping neuronal connections in the retina. The site provides microscopic retinal images and uses crowdsourcing to make sense of the images. EyeWire is where the general public can help make discoveries about the neural structure of the retina. The challenge is to map the neural connections of the retina by analyzing images that were acquired using serial electron microscopy at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research in Heidelberg, Germany. A retinal volume of size 350��300��60 micrometer cubed was imaged, amounting to about one terabyte of data. Retinal Connectome * Game 1: Reconstructing Neurons * Game 2: Identifying Synapses Eyewire incorporates computational technologies developed by the laboratory of Prof. Sebastian Seung at MIT.

An endowment that offers funding for neuroscience research, especially as it may apply to Minnesota, agriculture, or if the researchers are based in Minnesota. The McKnight Foundation, a Minnesota-based family foundation, seeks to improve the quality of life for present and future generations through grantmaking, collaboration, and strategic policy reform in the following areas: arts, education and learning, environment, the region and communities, agricultural research, and neuroscience research. The McKnight Foundation assists nonprofit organizations and public agencies to improve the quality of life for all people, particularly those in need. Through grantmaking, coalition-building, and encouragement of strategic policy reform, we aim to build and maintain vibrant communities; enrich people''s lives through the arts; encourage protection of the natural environment; and promote research in selected fields. The Foundation had assets of approximately $1.8 billion and gave about $98 million in grants in 2009. Generally speaking, McKnight supports nonprofit organizations in Minnesota, U.S., only. McKnight''s primary geographic focus in grantmaking is to nonprofit organizations located within the state of Minnesota. We do not provide funding outside Minnesota, with five important programmatic exceptions: * Collaborative Crop research: International. * East Africa: Tanzania and Uganda only. * Mississippi River: 10 states bordering or encompassing the Mississippi River. * Neuroscience research: National. * Southeast Asia: Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam only. Each program is different. Please consult the specific guidelines appropriate to your project or organization for funding details. With very few exceptions, McKnight funds nonprofit organizations only. To be eligible for a grant, applicants must be classified by the Internal Revenue Service as tax-exempt, nonprofit organizations. We discourage the use of fiscal agents.

An endowment that offers funding for memory research. The McKnight Endowment Fund for Neuroscience is an independent charitable organization established by The McKnight Foundation to carry out the wishes of its founder, William L. McKnight (1887-1979). Currently, the Endowment Fund for Neuroscience administers four awards which support young and established neuroscientists and encourage interdisciplinary collaboration: * Memory and Cognitive Disorders Awards * Neuroscience of Brain Disorders Awards * Scholar Awards * Technological Innovations in Neuroscience Awards Mr. McKnight, who led the 3M company for three decades, had a personal interest in memory and its diseases. He chose to set aside part of his legacy to bring hope to those suffering from brain injury or disease and cognitive impairment.

A tool for extraction and collaboration for data curation related to biology. CBioC runs as a web browser extension and allows unobtrusive use of the system during the regular course of research in PubMed. It can also be accessed directly (without having to install a plug-in). Automated text extraction is used as a starting point to bootstrap the database, but then it is up to biologists improve upon the extracted data, ironing out inconsistencies by subsequent edits on a massive scale. * After install, it loads when you visit PubMed. * Gets interactions from PubMed abstracts. * Allows you to vote and modify extracted data. * Also shows data from BIND, DIP, MINT, GRID, IntAct.
