A collaborative care and research initiative with a focus on prevention and treatment of Intellectual disability (ID) that is due to inborn errors of metabolism (IEM), which can be treated with diet or drugs. Health care policy and institutional culture is still operating under the old premise that all ID is incurable and thus, many children born with treatable ID are at risk of not being treated. To acknowledge the multidisciplinary scope and the ways in which health care professionals and researchers will collaborate, the goals of the TIDE BC project are demonstrated within a framework of 7 Work Packages: * Implementation of a new Protocol for diagnostic evaluation of ID, focusing of treatable conditions; * Development of infrastructure to facilitate implementation, evaluation and sustainability of the Protocol; * Investments into next generation genomic technologies; * Improving evidence of and access to treatments; * Evaluation and health economy; * Knowledge dissemination; * Education and Mentoring. The objectives addressed in all Work Packages reflect a highly integrated cluster combining clinical care, research, evaluation, and knowledge dissemination.

Atlas containing 2- and 3-dimensional, anatomical reference slides of the lifespan of the zebrafish to support research and education worldwide. Hematoxylin and eosin histological slides, at various points in the lifespan of the zebrafish, have been scanned at 40x resolution and are available through a virtual slide viewer. 3D models of the organs are reconstructed from plastic tissue sections of embryo and larvae. The size of the zebrafish, which allows sections to fall conveniently within the dimensions of the common 1 x 3 glass slide, makes it possible for this anatomical atlas to become as high resolution as for any vertebrate. That resolution, together with the integration of histology and organ anatomy, will create unique opportunities for comparisons with both smaller and larger model systems that each have their own strengths in research and educational value. The atlas team is working to allow the site to function as a scaffold for collaborative research and educational activity across disciplines and model organisms. The Zebrafish Atlas was created to answer a community call for a comprehensive, web-based, anatomical and pathological atlas of the zebrafish, which has become one of the most widely used vertebrate animal models globally. The experimental strengths of zebrafish as a model system have made it useful for a wide range of investigations addressing the missions of the NIH and NSF. The Zebrafish Atlas provides reference slides for virtual microscopic viewing of the zebrafish using an Internet browser. Virtual slide technology allows the user to choose their own field of view and magnification, and to consult labeled histological sections of zebrafish. We are planning to include a complete set of embryos, larvae, juveniles, and adults from approximately 25 different ages. Future work will also include a variety of comparisons (e.g. normal vs. mutant, normal vs. diseased, multiple stages of development, zebrafish with other organisms, and different types of cancer)., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A database of candidate genes for mapped inherited human diseases. Candidate priorities are automatically established by a data mining algorithm that extracts putative genes in the chromosomal region where the disease is mapped, and evaluates their possible relation to the disease based on the phenotype of the disorder. Data analysis uses a scoring system developed for the possible functional relations of human genes to genetically inherited diseases that have been mapped onto chromosomal regions without assignment of a particular gene. Methodology can be divided in two parts: the association of genes to phenotypic features, and the identification of candidate genes on a chromosonal region by homology. This is an analysis of relations between phenotypic features and chemical objects, and from chemical objects to protein function terms, based on the whole MEDLINE and RefSeq databases.

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.

The Vietnam Era Twin (VET) Registry is a closed cohort composed of approximately 7,000 middle-aged male-male twin pairs both of whom served in the military during the time of the Vietnam conflict (1964-1975). The Registry is a United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) resource that was originally constructed from military records; the Registry has been in existence for almost 20 years. It is one of the largest national twin registries in the US and currently has members living in all 50 states. Initially formed to address questions about the long-term health effects of service in Vietnam, the Registry has evolved into a resource for genetic epidemiological studies of mental and physical health conditions. Several waves of mail and telephone surveys have collected a wealth of health-related information on Registry twins, referred to as members. In addition to twins, selected adult offspring of twins and the mothers of those offspring are also VET Registry members. More recent data collection efforts have focused on specific sets of twin pairs and have conducted detailed clinical or laboratory testing. Selected Vietnam Era Registry Research Studies: * Veteran Health Study * VETSA 2: A Longitudinal Study of Cognitive Aging * Alcoholism Course thought Midlife: A Twin Family Study and Offspring of Twins: G, E and GxE Risk for Alcoholism * GE: Offspring of Twins with Substance Use Disorder * Mechanisms Linking Depression to Cardiovascular Risk (Twins Heart Study 2) * Post-traumatic Stress Disorder and Cardiovascular Disease * Biological Markers for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (T3) * Memory and the Hippocampus in Vietnam-era Twins with PTSD (Time 3)

Human Genome Epidemiology Network, or HuGENet, is a global collaboration of individuals and organizations committed to the assessment of the impact of human genome variation on population health and how genetic information can be used to improve health and prevent disease. Its goals include: establishing an information exchange that promotes global collaboration in developing peer-reviewed information on the relationship between human genomic variation and health and on the quality of genetic tests for screening and prevention; providing training and technical assistance to researchers and practitioners interested in assessing the role of human genomic variation on population health and how such information can be used in practice; developing an updated and accessible knowledge base on the World Wide Web; and promoting the use of this knowledge base by health care providers, researchers, industry, government, and the public for making decisions involving the use of genetic information for disease prevention and health promotion. HuGENet collaborators come from multiple disciplines such as epidemiology, genetics, clinical medicine, policy, public health, education, and biomedical sciences. Currently, there are 4 HuGENet Coordinating Centers for the implementation of HuGENet activities: CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics, Atlanta, Georgia; HuGENet UK Coordinating Center, Cambridge, UK; University of Ioannina, Greece; University of Ottawa , Ottawa, Canada. HuGENet includes: HuGE e-Journal Club: The HuGE e-Journal Club is an electronic discussion forum where new human genome epidemiologic (HuGE) findings, published in the scientific literature in the CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics Weekly Update, will be abstracted, summarized, presented, and discussed via a newly created HuGENet listserv. HuGE Reviews: A HuGE Review identifies human genetic variations at one or more loci, and describes what is known about the frequency of these variants in different populations, identifies diseases that these variants are associated with and summarizes the magnitude of risks and associated risk factors, and evaluates associated genetic tests. Reviews point to gaps in existing epidemiologic and clinical knowledge, thus stimulating further research in these areas. HuGE Fact Sheets: HuGE Fact Sheets summarize information about a particular gene, its variants, and associated diseases. HuGE Case Studies: An on-line presentation designed to sharpen your epidemiological skills and enhance your knowledge on genomic variation and human diseases. Its purpose is to train health professionals in the practical application of human genome epidemiology (HuGE), which translates gene discoveries to disease prevention by integrating population-based data on gene-disease relationships and interventions. Students will acquire conceptual and practical tools for critically evaluating the growing scientific literature in specific disease areas. HUGENet Publications: Articles related to the HuGENet movement written by our HuGENet collaborators. HuGE Navigator: An integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and human genome epidemiology, including information on population prevalence of genetic variants, gene-disease associations, gene-gene and gene- environment interactions, and evaluation of genetic tests. HuGE Workshops: HuGENet has sponsored meetings and workshops with national and international partners since 2001. Available are detailed summaries, agendas or the ability to download speaker slides. HuGE Book: Human Genome Epidemiology: A Scientific Foundation for Using Genetic Information to Improve Health and Prevent Disease. (The findings and conclusions in this book are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the funding agency.) HuGENet Collaborators: HuGENet is interested in establishing collaborations with individuals and organizations working on population based research involving genetic information. HuGE Funding: Funding opportunities for specific population-based genetic epidemiology research projects are available.

The Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Foundation, established in 2002, is a 501(c)3 nonprofit group that provides support services for those who have family members affected by 22q13 Deletion Syndrome / Phelan-McDermid Syndrome. It also raises money to further awareness of the syndrome through research and sponsoring an international conference every two years that brings together families, researchers and therapists. The Foundation facilitates connections between families through networking, communications and support services. We also build alliances with other rare diseases groups to expand our reach and exposure. The syndrome, which affects families worldwide, is a rare genetic occurrence and is the result of a damaged or missing protein on the 22nd chromosome. Our Foundation works with researchers who are looking into the cause and possible cure for the syndrome. PMSF's grants and fellowships program is intended to encourage research projects that will advance the development of treatments and cures for PMS. Our mission is to bring together everyone affected by 22q13 Deletion Syndrome/Phelan-McDermid Syndrome to help them through the challenges they face every day and to raise awareness in the medical and research communities.

The primary mission of the Living Links Center is to study human evolution by investigating our close genetic, anatomical, cognitive, and behavioral similarities with great apes. The Living Links Center was established for primate studies that shed light on human behavioral evolution. It is an integrated part of the Yerkes National Primate Research Center, which is the nation's oldest and largest primate center. The Living Links Center is home to two socially housed groups of chimpanzees and two socially housed groups of capuchin monkeys. The research conducted in this center is broken down into four categories: - Chimpanzees: Chimpanzee research at the Living Links Center is conducted at the Yerkes Field Station, which is home to two socially housed chimpanzee groups known as FS1 and FS2. Each mixed gender group of 12 individuals lives in a large outdoor enclosure with wooden climbing structures and play objects attached to an indoor sleeping area. FS1 and FS2 can hear, but not see each other because their enclosures are ~200m apart and separated by a small hill. Chimpanzee research is conducted on a volunteer basis with members of each group. - Elephants: This newly found presence of mirror self-recognition in elephants, previously predicted due to their well-known social complexity, is thought to relate to empathetic tendencies and the ability to distinguish oneself from others. As a result of this study, the elephant now joins a cognitive elite among animals commensurate with its well-known complex social life and high level of intelligence. Although elephants are far more distantly related to us than the great apes, they seem to have evolved similar social and cognitive capacities making complex social systems and intelligence part of this picture. These parallels between humans and elephants suggest a convergent cognitive evolution possibly related to complex sociality and cooperation. - Capuchin Monkeys: Though there are several different species of capuchin monkey, the one most widely studied in captivity by Living Links, is the brown, or tufted, capuchin (Cebus apella). - Collaborative Projects: projects with collaborators around the world. Sponsors: This center is supported by the Yerkes National Primate Research Center.

Rice Genome Research Program (RGP) is an integral part of the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) Genome Research Project. RGP now aims to completely sequence the entire rice genome and subsequently to pursue integrated goals in functional genomics, genome informatics and applied genomics. It is jointly coordinated by the National Institute of Agrobiological Sciences (NIAS), a government research institute under MAFF and the Society for Techno-innovation of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (STAFF), a semi-private research organization managed and supported by MAFF and a consortium of some twenty Japanese companies. The research is funded with yearly grants from MAFF and additional funds from the Japan Racing Association (JRA). It is now the leading member of the International Rice Genome Sequencing Project (IRGSP), a consortium of ten countries sharing the sequencing of the 12 rice chromosomes. The IRGSP adopts the clone-by-clone shotgun sequencing strategy so that each sequenced clone can be associated with a specific position on the genetic map and adheres to the policy of immediate release of the sequence data to the public domain. In December 2004, the IRGSP completed the sequencing of the rice genome. The high-quality and map-based sequence of the entire genome is now available in public databases.

Catalog of all changes detected in PKHD1 (Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease 1) in a locus specific database. Investigators are invited to submit their novel data to this database. These data should be meaningful for clinical practice as well as of relevance for the reader interested in molecular aspects of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). There are also some links and information for ARPKD patients and their parents. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD/PKHD1) is an important cause of renal-related and liver-related morbidity and mortality in childhood. This study reports mutation screening in 90 ARPKD patients and identifies mutations in 110 alleles making up a detection rate of 61%. Thirty-four of the detected mutations have not been reported previously. Two underlying mutations in 40 patients and one mutation in 30 cases are disclosed, and no mutation was detected on the remaining chromosomes. Mutations were found to be scattered throughout the gene without evidence of clustering at specific sites. PKHD1 mutation analysis is a powerful tool to establish the molecular cause of ARPKD in a given family. Direct identification of mutations allows an unequivocal diagnosis and accurate genetic counseling even in families displaying diagnostic challenges.
