The Cytoscape MiMI Plugin is an open source interactive visualization tool that you can use for analyzing protein interactions and their biological effects. The Cytoscape MiMI Plugin couples Cytoscape, a widely used software tool for analyzing bimolecular networks, with the MiMI database, a database that uses an intelligent deep-merging approach to integrate data from multiple well-known protein interaction databases. The MiMI database has data on 119,880 molecules, 330,153 interactions, and 579 complexes. By querying the MiMI database through Cytoscape you can access the integrated molecular data assembled in MiMI and retrieve interactive graphics that display protein interactions and details on related attributes and biological concepts. You can interact with the visualization by expanding networks to the next nearest neighbors and zooming and panning to relationships of interest. You also can perceptually encode nodes and links to show additional attributes through color, size and the visual cues. You can edit networks, link out to other resources and tools, and access information associated with interactions that has been mined and summarized from the research literature information through a biology natural language processing database (BioNLP) and a multi-document summarization system, MEAD. Additionally, you can choose sub-networks of interest and use SAGA, a graph matching tool, to match these sub-networks to biological pathways.

miniTUBA is a web-based modeling system that allows clinical and biomedical researchers to perform complex medical/clinical inference and prediction using dynamic Bayesian network analysis with temporal datasets. The software allows users to choose different analysis parameters (e.g. Markov lags and prior topology), and continuously update their data and refine their results. miniTUBA can make temporal predictions to suggest interventions based on an automated learning process pipeline using all data provided. Preliminary tests using synthetic data and laboratory research data indicate that miniTUBA accurately identifies regulatory network structures from temporal data. miniTUBA represents in a network view possible influences that occur between time varying variables in your dataset. For these networks of influence, miniTUBA predicts time courses of disease progression or response to therapies. minTUBA offers a probabilistic framework that is suitable for medical inference in datasets that are noisy. It conducts simulations and learning processes for predictive outcomes. The DBN analysis conducted by miniTUBA describes from variables that you specify how multiple measures at different time points in various variables influence each other. The DBN analysis then finds the probability of the model that best fits the data. A DBN analysis runs every combination of all the data; it examines a large space of possible relationships between variables, including linear, non-linear, and multi-state relationships; and it creates chains of causation, suggesting a sequence of events required to produce a particular outcome. Such chains of causation networks - are difficult to extract using other machine learning techniques. DBN then scores the resulting networks and ranks them in terms of how much structured information they contain compared to all possible models of the data. Models that fit well have higher scores. Output of a miniTUBA analysis provides the ten top-scoring networks of interacting influences that may be predictive of both disease progression and the impact of clinical interventions and probability tables for interpreting results. The DBN analysis that miniTUBA provides is especially good for biomedical experiments or clinical studies in which you collect data different time intervals. Applications of miniTUBA to biomedical problems include analyses of biomarkers and clinical datasets and other cases described on the miniTUBA website. To run a DBN with miniTUBA, you can set a number of parameters and constrain results by modifying structural priors (i.e. forcing or forbidding certain connections so that direction of influence reflects actual biological relationships). You can specify how to group variables into bins for analysis (called discretizing) and set the DBN execution time. You can also set and re-set the time lag to use in the analysis between the start of an event and the observation of its effect, and you can select to analyze only particular subsets of variables.

The Cancer Text Information Extraction System (caTIES) provides tools for de-identification and automated coding of free-text structured pathology reports. It also has a client that can be used to search these coded reports. The client also supports Tissue Banking and Honest Broker operations. caTIES focuses on two important challenges of bioinformatics * Information extraction (IE) from free text * Access to tissue. Regarding the first challenge, information from free-text pathology documents represents a vital and often underutilized source of data for cancer researchers. Typically, extracting useful data from these documents is a slow and laborious manual process requiring significant domain expertise. Application of automated methods for IE provides a method for radically increasing the speed and scope with which this data can be accessed. Regarding the second challenge, there is a pressing need in the cancer research community to gain access to tissue specific to certain experimental criteria. Presently, there are vast quantities of frozen tissue and paraffin embedded tissue throughout the country, due to lack of annotation or lack of access to annotation these tissues are often unavailable to individual researchers. caTIES has three goals designed to solve these problems: * Extract coded information from free text Surgical Pathology Reports (SPRs), using controlled terminologies to populate caBIG-compliant data structures. * Provide researchers with the ability to query, browse and create orders for annotated tissue data and physical material across a network of federated sources. With caTIES the SPR acts as a locator to tissue resources. * Pioneer research for distributed text information extraction within the context of caBIG. caTIES focuses on IE from SPRs because they represent a high-dividend target for automated analysis. There are millions of SPRs in each major hospital system, and SPRs contain important information for researchers. SPRs act as tissue locators by indicating the presence of tissue blocks, frozen tissue and other resources, and by identifying the relationship of the tissue block to significant landmarks such as tumor margins. At present, nearly all important data within SPRs are embedded within loosely-structured free-text. For these reasons, SPRs were chosen to be coded through caTIES because facilitating access to information contained in SPRs will have a powerful impact on cancer research. Once SPR information has been run through the caTIES Pipeline, the data may be queried and inspected by the researcher. The goal of this search may be to extract and analyze data or to acquire slides of tissue for further study. caTIES provides two query interfaces, a simple query dashboard and an advanced diagram query builder. Both of these interfaces are capable of NCI Metathesaurus, concept-based searching as well as string searching. Additionally, the diagram interface is capable of advanced searching functionalities. An important aspect of the interface is the ability to manage queries and case sets. Users are able to vet query results and save them to case sets which can then be edited at a later time. These can be submitted as tissue orders or used to derive data extracts. Queries can also be saved, and modified at a later time. caTIES provides the following web services by default: MMTx Service, TIES Coder Service

MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences stands at the nexus of neuroscience, biology and psychology. We combine these disciplines to study specific aspects of the brain and mind including: vision, movement systems, learning and memory, neural and cognitive development, language and reasoning. Together, MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences offers extraordinary learning opportunities for undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students. Because the human brain is immensely complex in many different ways at once, we pursue every level of inquiry - from molecules to cells to circuits to the mystery of the mind itself. As we study its diseases and disorders, its development and daily feats, like vision, speech, movement and memory, we also integrate methods and insights from every area of brain research. This unusual diversity of expertise fosters an intensely creative atmosphere that sparks startling collaborations. Already known for remarkable contributions to the field, our faculty members continually stretch the limits of knowledge, and bring the same passion to educating our exceptional students. A key part of the BCS mission is to offer its graduate and undergraduate students an educational experience of the highest quality. Our graduate students benefit from the impressive range of our program, and from the ability to participate in research projects with faculty members who are leaders in their fields. The department's undergraduate program, which includes both neuroscience and cognitive science, is one of the fastest-growing majors at MIT.

Initiative to improve health by speeding up the development of, and patient access to, innovative medicines, particularly in areas where there is an unmet medical or social need. It does this by initiating and managing consortia composed of the key players involved in healthcare research, including universities, the pharmaceutical and other industries, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), patient organizations, and medicines regulators. IMI is a public-private partnership between the European Union and the European pharmaceutical industry, represented by the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA), with a timeframe separated into two phases (2008-2013, 2014-2024) that are each defined by unique research agendas. The first phase (2008 2013) had four pillars that defined the focus of its research agenda: * Predicting safety: evaluating the safety of a compound during the pre-clinical phase of the development process and the later phases in clinical development. * Predicting efficacy: improving the ability to predict how a drug will interact in humans and how it may produce a change in function. * Knowledge management: utilization of information and data for predicting safety and efficacy. * Education and training: closing existing training gaps in the drug development process. Some of the consortia managed under IMI focused on specific health issues while others focused on broader challenges in drug development. Additionally, IMI launched a number of education and training projects during its first phases. The goal of the second phase (IMI2, 2014-2024) is to develop next generation vaccines and drugs. The focus is on delivering the right prevention and treatment for the right patient at the right time. There is a strong focus on the development of new medicines with an emphasis on tools and methods that accelerate patient access to new medicines. IMI2's agenda can be defined by four axes of research: * target validation and biomarker research (efficacy and safety) * adoption of innovative clinical trial paradigms * innovative medicines * patient-tailored adherence programs As part of its distinct goals, IMI2 aims to deliver: * 30% better success rate in clinical trials of priority medicines identified by the WHO; clinical proof of concept in immunological, respiratory, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases in five years; * new and approved diagnostic markers for four of these diseases and at least two new medicines which could either be new antibiotics or new therapies for Alzheimer's disease.
