Software that aligns patterns, i.e. it aims to put corresponding features at the same locations. The algorithm searches for an optimal polynomial describing the warping. It is possible to align one sample to a reference, several samples to the same reference, or several samples to several references. One can choose between calculating individual warpings, or one global warping for a set of samples and one reference. Two optimization criteria are implemented: RMS (Root Mean Square error) and WCC (Weighted Cross Correlation).

https://code.google.com/p/gutentag/

An interactive, user-editable genetic sequence database tool, targeted at molecular biology research groups that can be browsed using tags. The tool is Web 2.0-flavoured, allowing users to do more than just retrieve information. Its focus on user-editability is supported by the use of tags (metadata) associated with genetic sequences. Several methods of retrieving stored data are available including tag-clouds, BLAST and keyword searches. Also, sequence tags related to HGNC gene names, conserved domains (CDD) and GO terms can be automatically generated given sequence data. The tool is constructed using the high-level Python web framework, Django, with a SQLite3 backend.

An organization for universities and research institutions that is an information service and a forum for raising and discussing issues around the mission of modern universities and research institutions, particularly with regard to the creation, dissemination and preservation of research findings. Its aim is to further the opening up of scholarship and research that we are now seeing through the growing open access, open education, open science and open innovation movements. These, and other, "open" approaches to scholarship are changing the way research and learning are done and there are profound implications for universities and research institutions. EOS has been established to help guide developments and to assist others in understanding the issues and their implications. The context in which EOS has been established is that of increasing interest from governments, funders and the research community itself in opening up the way research is carried out and communicated. This interest is complemented by new research practices and processes that can work effectively only in an open, collaborative environment. Developments of relevance to the mission of EnablingOpenScholarship are reported on and news and details of forthcoming meetings, briefings and discussion sessions is provided.

http://wiki.solariseclipse.net/PrimerDesigner

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 19,2025. Software program to aid in designing of primers and creation of primer sheets. The program allows users to select a background and enter mutaions. An initial primer is then suggested. User can manipulate the selected primer to add or remove nucleotides from either 5? or 3? ends. A set of parameters reflecting the goodness of the primer is updated on the fly, as the user makes changes. Once happy with the primer, the information is saved in a primer sheet, which can then be uploaded to the BGME lab primer database on the Wiki.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/primerdesigner/

High throughput PCR primer design software. Target regions defined through a rich set of descriptors, such as Ensembl accessions and arbitrary genomic coordinates, may be specified. Primer pairs are then selected computationally to produce a minimal amplicon set capable of tiling across the specified target regions. As part of the tiling process, primer pairs are computationally screened to meet the criteria for success with one of two PCR amplification protocols.

A classification system developed by the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer's Association that can be used to integrate and compare Alzheimer's disease (AD) research portfolios from public and private organizations supporting AD research in the US and abroad. The CADRO was constructed as a three-tier classification system organized around seven major categories: five in research and two resource-related: * Category A. Molecular Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology of Alzheimer's Disease * Category B. Diagnosis, Assessment and Disease Monitoring * Category C. Translational Research and Clinical Interventions * Category D. Epidemiology * Category E. Care, Support and Health Economics of Alzheimer's Diseases * Category F. Research Resources * Category G. Consortia and Public Private Partnerships * Category H. Alzheimer's Disease - Related Dementias Using information from project abstracts and research aims, the above categories were stratified into research topics and these were further divided into research themes. The three levels of classification are meant to enable a fine-grained portfolio analysis that can inform strategic planning and funding decisions. The CADRO was developed as a dynamic portfolio analysis tool that can be used to: (i) capture the changing landscape of AD research funded by different organizations, (ii) identify opportunities for coordination of support for AD research, and (iii) identify funding gaps as well as areas of overlap within and across organizations.
