http://users.loni.ucla.edu/~shattuck/brainsuite/

Suite of image analysis tools designed to process magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the human head. BrainSuite provides an automatic sequence to extract genus-zero cortical surface mesh models from the MRI. It also provides a set of viewing tools for exploring image and surface data. The latest release includes graphical user interface and command line versions of the tools. BrainSuite was specifically designed to guide its users through the process of cortical surface extraction. NITRC has written the software to require minimal user interaction and with the goal of completing the entire process of extracting a topologically spherical cortical surface from a raw MR volume within several minutes on a modern workstation. The individual components of BrainSuite may also be used for soft tissue, skull and scalp segmentation and for surface analysis and visualization. BrainSuite was written in Microsoft Visual C using the Microsoft Foundation Classes for its graphical user interface and the OpenGL library for rendering. BrainSuite runs under the Windows 2000 and Windows XP Professional operating systems. BrainSuite features include: * Sophisticated visualization tools, such as MRI visualization in 3 orthogonal views (either separately or in 3D view), and overlayed surface visualization of cortex, skull, and scalp * Cortical surface extraction, using a multi-stage user friendly approach. * Tools including brain surface extraction, bias field correction, voxel classification, cerebellum removal, and surface generation * Topological correction of cortical surfaces, which uses a graph-based approach to remove topological defects (handles and holes) and ensure a tessellation with spherical topology * Parameterization of generated cortical surfaces, minimizing a harmonic energy functional in the p-norm * Skull and scalp surface extraction

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on October 16, 2013. NCRR has been absorbed into other parts of the National Institutes of Health. This organizational structure is no longer available. Provides laboratory scientists and clinical researchers with the resources and tools they need to understand, detect, treat and prevent a wide range of diseases. Animal models, such as nonhuman primates, are a critical component of biomedical research, having profound implications for public health. Scientists depend on laboratory animals and other nonhuman models for investigating biological processes, studying the causes of diseases and testing promising new therapies. Nonhuman primates, in particular, are important for translational research because of their close physiological similarities to humans. They enable discoveries that have direct application to human studies, bridging the gap between basic science and human medicine. Discoveries in animal models are helping scientists test treatments for human conditions such as drug addiction, obesity, malaria, HIV/AIDS and neurodegenerative diseases, accelerating the pace at which these research advances can be translated into treatments for patients. Through its Division of Comparative Medicine, NCRR offers a wide variety of primate resources for NIH-funded scientists across the nation. Additionally, funding opportunities are available to National Primate Research Centers. Eight National Primate Research Centers (NPRCs) located throughout the country provide animals, facilities and expertise in all aspects of nonhuman primate biology and husbandry. These facilities and resources enable collaborative research among NPRC staff scientists, investigators from the NPRC host institution and other NIH-funded researchers. Major areas of research benefiting from the primate centers include AIDS, avian flu, Alzheimer''s disease, Parkinson''s disease, diabetes, asthma and endo-metriosis. The centers????????????????? specialized resources are intended to support investigators who receive their primary research project funding from NIH, but they also may be used by investigators who are funded by other federal, state and local agencies, as well as by research foundations and the private sector. Together the primate centers have more than 28,000 nonhuman primates of 20 different species. This portal covers the following topics: * National Primate Research Centers * Monkey Research Resources * Chimpanzee Research Resources * Chimpanzee Management Program * Specific-Pathogen-Free Macaque Resources * Nonhuman Primate Research Reagents

http://vivoweb.org/

Open source semantic web application that enables the discovery of research and scholarship across disciplines at a particular institution and across institutions by creating a semantic cloud of information that can be searched and browsed. Participants include institutions with local installations of VIVO or those with research discovery and profiling applications that can provide semantic web-compliant data. The information accessible through the national network''''s search and browse capability will therefore reside and be controlled locally within institutional VIVOs or other semantic web applications. The VIVO ontology provides a set of types (classes) and relationships (properties) to represent researchers and the full context of their experience, outputs, interests, accomplishments, and associated institutions. https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/VIVO/VIVO-ISF+Ontology VIVO is populated with detailed profiles of faculty and researchers including information such as publications, teaching, service, and professional affiliations. It also supports browsing and a search function which returns faceted results for rapid retrieval of desired information. The rich semantically structured data in VIVO support and facilitate research discovery. Examples of applications that consume these rich data include: visualizations, enhanced multi-site search through VIVO Search, and applications such as VIVO Searchlight, a browser bookmarklet which uses text content of any webpage to search for relevant VIVO profiles, and the Inter-Institutional Collaboration Explorer, an application which allows visualization of collaborative institutional partners, among others. Institutions are free to participate in the national network by installing and using the application. The application provides linked data via RDF data making users a part of the semantic web! or any other application that provides linked data can be used. Users can also get involved with developing applications that provide enhanced search, new collaboration capabilities, grouping, finding and mapping scientists and their work.
