ArchSchema is a java webstart application that generates dynamic plots of related Pfam domain architectures. The protein sequences having each architecture can be displayed on the plot and separately listed. Where there is 3D structural information in the PDB, the relevant PDB codes can be shown on the plot. Sequences can be be filtered by organism, or the output can be limited to just those protein sequences for which there is structural information in the PDB. Search by UniProt sequence id, or by Pfam domain id. Red underlines indicate the extent to which 3D structures of the domains and architectures are available in the PDB. Left-clicking on a node shows a panel containing information about the constituent domains, the protein sequences having the given architecture, and any sequences that have whole or partial structures in the PDB. You can display protein sequence (or, alternatively, the protein structures) associated with each architecture. You can download ArchSchema to run locally from your own machine. Note, however, you only download the code and not the data. Thus you will need to be connected to the Internet whenever you perform a search from within ArchSchema. The search initiates a call to the EBI which returns the data to ArchSchema for graphing.

Association of physicians, scientists, academics, research institutes and self-help groups that provides and nurtures interdisciplinary cooperation between research and primary, secondary and tertiary health care. Many internationally renowned heart failure researchers and working groups live and work in Germany. Nevertheless, there is insufficient cooperation of the respective working groups and research projects in this area. In order to remain internationally competitive in the heart failure research community, excellent implementation of large scale clinical and genetic trials is indispensable. Further, deficits in the effective presentation and transfer of research findings into clinical practice need to be addressed. An adequate translation of guidelines into practical, tangible instructions can facilitate clinical practice both in primary and tertiary care fundamentally. The need for action to address the research-practice-gap is obvious.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 19,2024. Brain tissue donation is a valuable contribution to mental health research. It enables scientists to investigate how the normal brain works, and how the brain is disturbed when it is affected by schizophrenia, depression, bipolar (manic depressive) disease or other related disorders. The Department of Psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh has established a brain tissue bank to which brain tissue can be donated at no expense. The gift of brain tissue enables scientists to conduct research designed to understand causes, to develop new treatments, and ultimately to find cures for diseases that affect the brain. Brain tissue donation is a gift that makes it possible for researchers to study various types of mental disorders. Donations of brain tissue from individuals without these disorders are also needed to establish comparisons with brain samples from individuals who have these disorders. Any legally competent adult or guardian may indicate during life their interest in donating brain tissue after death. Next-of-kin either of healthy individuals or of those with psychiatric disorders may give consent to donate brain tissue following the death of a loved one. Brain tissue is removed during autopsy at a morgue or hospital and is transported to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for examination and study.

Gift of Hope Organ & Tissue Donor Network is proud to serve as the federally designated not-for-profit agency that coordinates organ and tissue donation and supports families of donors in the northern three-quarters of Illinois and northwest Indiana. Since our inception in 1986, we have coordinated donations that have saved the lives of 17,000 organ transplant recipients and helped hundreds of thousands of other patients receive needed tissue transplants. As one of 58 organ procurement organizations (OPOs) that make up the nation''s organ donation system, we work with 179 hospitals in our donation service area. In managing the recovery, care and transportation of donated organs to transplant patients, we work closely with Illinois'' nine transplant centers, which operate 32 transplant programs. We also work with other transplant centers and other OPOs through the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) to provide lifesaving organs for patients awaiting them. UNOS is the federally mandated registration center for organ transplant candidates in the United States. UNOS'' computer-based system matches donated organs with patients in need, in accordance with strict federal guidelines intended to ensure equitable distribution.

A set of tools designed to cluster large numbers (>1 million) of pre-aligned nucleotide sequences. It performs the clustering of sequences using the Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm (HCA). There are currently three different cluster metrics implemented: single-linkage, complete-linkage, and average-linkage. In addition, there are currently four sequence distance functions implemented, these are: identity (gap-gap counting as match), nogap (gap-gap being ignored), nogap-single (like nogap, but consecutive gap-nogap''s count as a single mismatch), tamura (distance is calculated with the knowledge that transitions are more likely than transversions). One advantage that HCA has over other algorithms is that instead of producing only the clustering at a given threshold, it produces the set of merges occuring at each threshold. With this approach, the clusters can afterwards very quickly be reported for every arbitrary threshold with little extra computation. This approach also allows the plotting of the variation of number of clusters with clustering threshold without requiring the clustering to be run for each threshold independently. Another feature of the way HPC-CLUST is implemented is that the single-, complete-, and average-linkage clusterings can be computed in a single run with little overhead.

The Center for Children''s Environmental Health and Disease Prevention is a multi-disciplinary collaborative research organization established to examine how toxic chemicals may influence the development of autism in children. The Center''s goal is to contribute knowledge about autism that will lead to new strategies for the prevention and treatment of this mysterious condition. Parents and health professionals have raised concerns about how environmental factors such as pesticides, a variety of chemicals, or even some ingredients included in vaccines may effect the development of the disorder. We are the first center to examine the roles of a wide range of toxic chemicals, genetic predisposition, and the interplay between these two in altering brain development during early life and leading to abnormal social behavior in children. Scientists in the CCEH study the effects of the environment on children''s health, with a particular focus on autism. Researchers come from all fields including molecular biology, medicine, nutrition, psychology, animal behavior, and genetics. The Center''s research is guided by an Advisory Board with representatives including parents, activists, non-profits, government agencies, and concerned citizens. This Center is one of several children''s centers throughout the nation funded by the U.S. EPA and NIEHS.
