iBioSeminars offers: * Free, on-demand lectures: Many universities/colleges have limited access to high profile leaders in biological research. Our goal is to add 15-20 seminars per year, of similar quality to outstanding lectures that are currently in this library. Access, through web streaming or download, is completely free-of-charge. * Targeting a broad audience: iBioSeminars start with an extended introduction, making them accessible to non-specialists and students, and then progress to cover current research. Senior scientists and students can view and enjoy these lectures. * Education: iBioSeminars are being used by undergraduate and graduate teachers to augment their classroom material. We have now added an education component to this web site (including lecture notes, questions/answers and short video clips for teaching). * International communication: iBioSeminars have viewers in 115 countries and they are being internally promoted in several countries as an educational tool and scientific resource. * Goodwill: Lecturers generously donate their time to prepare these lectures. The project, largely funded by HHMI, is a grass roots efforts with time invested by several individuals at UCSF, HHMI and ASCB.

http://avis.princeton.edu/pixie/index.php

bioPIXIE is a general system for discovery of biological networks through integration of diverse genome-wide functional data. This novel system for biological data integration and visualization, allows you to discover interaction networks and pathways in which your gene(s) (e.g. BNI1, YFL039C) of interest participate. The system is based on a Bayesian algorithm for identification of biological networks based on integrated diverse genomic data. To start using bioPIXIE, enter your genes of interest into the search box. You can use ORF names or aliases. If you enter multiple genes, they can be separated by commas or returns. Press ''submit''. bioPIXIE uses a probabilistic Bayesian algorithm to identify genes that are most likely to be in the same pathway/functional neighborhood as your genes of interest. It then displays biological network for the resulting genes as a graph. The nodes in the graph are genes (clicking on each node will bring up SGD page for that gene) and edges are interactions (clicking on each edge will show evidence used to predict this interaction). Most likely, the first results to load on the results page will be a list of significant Gene Ontology terms. This list is calculated for the genes in the biological network created by the bioPIXIE algorithm. If a gene ontology term appears on this list with a low p-value, it is statistically significantly overrepresented in this biological network. As you move the mouse over genes in the network, interactions involving these genes are highlighted. If you click on any of the highlighted interactions graph, evidence pop-up window will appear. The Evidence pop-up lists all evidence for this interaction, with links to the papers that produced this evidence - clicking these links will bring up the relevant source citation(s) in PubMed. You may need to download the Adobe Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) plugin to utilize the visualization tool (you will be prompted if you need it).

http://zebrafinch.brainarchitecture.org/

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.

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/thornton-srv/databases/profunc/index.html

The ProFunc server had been developed to help identify the likely biochemical function of a protein from its three-dimensional structure. It uses both sequence- and structure-based methods including fold matching, residue conservation, surface cleft analysis, and functional 3D templates, to identify both the protein''''s likely active site and possible homologues in the PDB. Often, where one method fails to provide any functional insight another may be more helpful. You can submit your own structure, analyze an existing PDB entry, or retrieve the results of a previously submitted run. The files are usually stored for about 6 months before being deleted. However, they are stored on a partition that is not backed up; so, in principle, they could disappear at any time.
