Network that brings together researchers in imaging genomics, to understand brain structure and function, based on MRI, DTI, fMRI and genomewide association scan (GWAS) data. The ENIGMA Network has several goals: * to create a network of like-minded individuals, interested in pushing forward the field of imaging genetics * to ensure promising findings are replicated via member collaborations, in order to satisfy the mandates of most journals * to share ideas, algorithms, data, and information on promising findings or methods * to facilitate training, including workshops and conferences on key methods and emerging directions in imaging genetics. Data sharing with other members of the ENIGMA Network is optional and by no means a requirement of joining the network. Genetics and Imaging Protocols are available.

http://www.nia.nih.gov/research/dn

A funding resource that supports the research and training for understanding the structure and function of the aging nervous system, with an emphasis on studies involving Alzheimer's disease and age-related dementia. There is an emphasis on brain-behavior relationships. This program is composed of three branches: Neurobiology, Neuropsychology, and Dementias of Aging. The overall aim of this program is to understand the aging nervous system to minimize mental decline and improve the lives of older patients. This resource also includes links to sites for Alzheimer's disease (AD) studies that include: specimen repositories, genetic materials, bio-markers, data, policies on NIA and AD genetics sharing plans, and additional aging or other AD related links.

http://www.biausa.org/

The country''s oldest and largest nationwide brain injury advocacy organization. We are dedicated to increasing access to quality health care and raising awareness and understanding of brain injury through advocacy, education and research. With a nationwide network of more than 40 chartered state affiliates and hundreds of local chapters and support groups, we provide help, hope and healing for individuals who live with brain injury, their families and the professionals who serve them. Brain injury is not an event or an outcome. It is the start of a misdiagnosed, misunderstood, under-funded neurological disease. Individuals who sustain brain injuries must have timely access to expert trauma care, specialized rehabilitation, lifelong disease management and individualized services and supports in order to live healthy, independent and satisfying lives.

The Stanley Online Genomics Database uses samples from the Stanley Medical Research Institute (SMRI) Brain Bank. These samples were processed and run on gene expression arrays by a variety of researchers in collaboration with the SMRI. These researchers have performed analyses on their respective studies using a range of analytic approaches. All of the genomic data have been aggregated in this online database, and a consistent set of analyses have been applied to each study. Additionally, a comprehensive set of cross-study analyses have been performed. A thorough collection of gene expression summaries are provided, inclusive of patient demographics, disease subclasses, regulated biological pathways, and functional classifications. Raw data is also available to download. The database is derived from two sets of brain samples, the Stanley Array collection and the Stanley Consortium collection. The Stanley Array collection contains 105 patients, and the Stanley Consortium collection contains 60 patients. Multiple genomic studies have been conducted using these brain samples. From these studies, twelve were selected for inclusion in the database on the basis of number of patients studied, genomic platform used, and data quality. The Consortium collection studies have fewer patients but more diversity in brain regions and array platforms, while the Array collection studies are more homogenous. There are tradeoffs, the Consortium results will be more variable, but findings may be more broadly representative. The collections contain brain samples from subjects in four main groups: Bipolar Schizophrenia, Depression, and Controls Brain regions used in the studies include: Broadman Area 6, Broadman Area 8/9, Broadman Area 10, Broadman Area 46, Cerebellum The 12 studies encompass a range of microarray platforms: Affymetrix HG-U95Av2, Affymetrix HG-U133A, Affymetrix HG-U133 2.0+, Codelink Human 20K, Agilent Human I, Custom cDNA Publications based on any of the clinical or genomic data should credit the Stanley Medical Research Institute, as well as any individual SMRI collaborators whose data is being used. Publications which make use of analytic results/methods in the database should additionally cite Dr. Michael Elashoff. Registration is required to access the data.
