Mouse Connectome Project Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Mouse Connectome Project (RRID:SCR_004096) | MCP | atlas, data or information resource, database | Three-dimensional digital connectome atlas of the C57Black/6J mouse brain and catalog of neural tracer injection cases, which will eventually cover the entire brain. Serial sections of each case are available to view at 10x magnification in the interactive iConnectome viewer. The Image Gallery provides a glimpse into some of the highlights of their data set. Representative images of multi-fluorescent tracer labeling can be viewed, while more in depth examination of these and all other cases can be performed in the iConnectome viewer. Phase 1 of this project involves generating a physical map of the basic global wiring diagram by applying proven, state of the art experimental circuit tracing methods systematically, uniformly, and comprehensively to the structural organization of all major neuronal pathways in the mouse brain. Connectivity imaging data for the whole mouse brain at cellular resolution will be presented within a standard 3D anatomic frame available through the website and accompanied by a comprehensive searchable online database. A Phase 2 goal for the future will allow users to view, search, and generate driving direction-like roadmaps of neuronal pathways linking any and all structures in the nervous system. This could be looked on as a pilot project for more ambitious projects in species with larger brains, such as human, and for providing a reliable framework for more detailed local circuitry mapping projects in the mouse. | tract tracing assay, adult mouse, connectivity, c57bl/6j, brain, olfactory bulb, piriform cortical area, lateral olfactory tract, connectome, neuronal tract tracing, nissl, image collection |

Zebrafinch Brain Architecture Project Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Zebrafinch Brain Architecture Project (RRID:SCR_004277) | Zebrafinch Brain Architecture Project | atlas, data or information resource | Atlas of high resolution Nissl stained digital images of the brain of the zebra finch, the mainstay of songbird research. The cytoarchitectural high resolution photographs and atlas presented here aim at facilitating electrode placement, connectional studies, and cytoarchitectonic analysis. This initial atlas is not in stereotaxic coordinate space. It is intended to complement the stereotaxic atlases of Akutegawa and Konishi, and that of Nixdorf and Bischof. (Akutagawa E. and Konishi M., stereotaxic atalas of the brain of zebra finch, unpublished. and Nixdorf-Bergweiler B. E. and Bischof H. J., A Stereotaxic Atlas of the Brain Of the Zebra Finch, Taeniopygia Guttata, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.) The zebra finch has proven to be the most widely used model organism for the study of the neurological and behavioral development of birdsong. A unique strength of this research area is its integrative nature, encompassing field studies and ethologically grounded behavioral biology, as well as neurophysiological and molecular levels of analysis. The availability of dimensionally accurate and detailed atlases and photographs of the brain of male and female animals, as well as of the brain during development, can be expected to play an important role in this research program. Traditionally, atlases for the zebra finch brain have only been available in printed format, with the limitation of low image resolution of the cell stained sections. The advantages of a digital atlas over a traditional paper-based atlas are three-fold. * The digital atlas can be viewed at multiple resolutions. At low magnification, it provides an overview of brain sections and regions, while at higher magnification, it shows exquisite details of the cytoarchitectural structure. * It allows digital re-slicing of the brain. The original photographs of brain were taken in certain selected planes of section. However, the brains are seldom sliced in exactly the same plane in real experiments. Re-slicing provides a useful atlas in user-chosen planes, which are otherwise unavailable in the paper-based version. * It can be made available on the internet. High resolution histological datasets can be independently evaluated in light of new experimental anatomical, physiological and molecular studies. | nissl stain, sagittal, horizontal plane, transverse plane, myelin stain, brain | has parent organization: Brain Architecture Project | W.

By pooling resources and expertise, the Blueprint identifies cross-cutting areas of research, and confronts challenges too large for any single Institute or Center. The Blueprint makes collaboration a day-to-day part of how the NIH does business in neuroscience, complementing the basic missions of Blueprint partners. During each fiscal year, the partners contribute a small percentage of their funds to a common pool. Since the Blueprint's inception in 2004, this pool has comprised less than 1 percent of the total neuroscience research budget of the partners. In 2009, the Blueprint Grand Challenges were launched to catalyze research with the potential to transform our basic understanding of the brain and our approaches to treating brain disorders. * The Human Connectome Project is an effort to map the connections within the healthy brain. It is expected to help answer questions about how genes influence brain connectivity, and how this in turn relates to mood, personality and behavior. The investigators will collect brain imaging data, plus genetic and behavioral data from 1,200 adults. They are working to optimize brain imaging techniques to see the brain's wiring in unprecedented detail. * The Grand Challenge on Pain supports research to understand the changes in the nervous system that cause acute, temporary pain to become chronic. The initiative is supporting multi-investigator projects to partner researchers in the pain field with researchers in the neuroplasticity field. * The Blueprint Neurotherapeutics Network is helping small labs develop new drugs for nervous system disorders. The Network provides research funding, plus access to millions of dollars worth of services and expertise to assist in every step of the drug development process, from laboratory studies to preparation for clinical trials. Project teams across the U.S. have received funding to pursue drugs for conditions from vision loss to neurodegenerative disease to depression. Since its inception in 2004, the Blueprint has supported the development of new resources, tools and opportunities for neuroscientists. For example, the Blueprint supports several training programs to help students pursue interdisciplinary areas of neuroscience, and to bring students from underrepresented groups into the neurosciences. The Blueprint also funds efforts to develop new approaches to teaching neuroscience through K-12 instruction, museum exhibits and web-based platforms. From fiscal years 2007 to 2009, the Blueprint focused on three major themes of neuroscience - neurodegeneration, neurodevelopment, and neuroplasticity. These efforts enabled unique funding opportunities and training programs, and helped establish new resources including the Blueprint Non-Human Primate Brain Atlas. | animal model, collaboration, computational biology, imaging tool, initiative, neurodegeneration, neurodevelopment, neuroinformatics, brain, brain disorder, pain, drug, nervous system disorder, neurotherapeutics, neuroplasticity, neuroscience |

AgedBrainSYSBIO (RRID:SCR_003825) | AgedBrainSYSBIO | organization portal, data or information resource, consortium, portal | Consortium focused on identifying the foundational pathways responsible for the aging of the brain, with a focus on Late Onset Alzheimer's disease. They aim to identify the interactions through which the aging phenotype develops in normal and in disease conditions; modeling novel pathways and their evolutionary properties to design experiments that identify druggable targets. As early steps of neurodegenerative disorders are expected to impact synapse function the project will focus in particular on pre- or postsynaptic protein networks. The concept is to identify subsets of pathways with two unique druggable hallmarks, the validation of interactions occurring locally in subregions of neurons and a human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary signature. The consortium will do this through six approaches: * identification of interacting protein networks from recent Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) data, * experimental validation of interconnected networks working in subregion of a neuron (such as dendrites and dendritic spines), * inclusion of these experimentally validated networks in larger networks obtained from available databases to extend possible protein interactions, * identification of human and/or primate positive selection either in coding or in regulatory gene sequences, * manipulation of these human and/or primate accelerated evolutionary interacting proteins in human neurons derived from induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) * modeling predictions in drosophila and novel mouse transgenic models * validation of new druggable targets and markers as a proof-of-concept towards the prevention and cure of aging cognitive defects. The scientists will share results and know-how on Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease-Genome Wide Association Studies (LOAD-GWAS) gene discovery, comparative functional genomics in mouse and drosophila models, in mouse transgenic approaches, research on human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) and their differentiation in vitro and modeling pathways with emphasis on comparative and evolutionary aspects. The four European small to medium size enterprises (SMEs) involved will bring their complementary expertise and will ensure translation of project results to clinical application. | consortium, drug, drug development, brain, phenotype, presynaptic, protein network, postsynaptic, systems biology, synapse, neuron, protein interaction, network, induced pluripotent stem cell, pathway, genome wide association study, cognitive defect, gene, protein |
