The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research is the research branch of the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System. Biomedical research has been a vital aspect of its two academic medical centers North Shore University Hospital and Long Island Jewish Medical Center since their establishment in the early 1950''s. Through its connection to the hospital system, the Institute bridges the gap between biomedical research and patient care, accessing hundreds of thousands of patients in the health system''s 15 hospitals, four long-term care facilities, three trauma centers, six home health agencies and dozens of outpatient facilities. Institute scientists collaborate with clinicians throughout the system to shed light on basic biological processes underlying disease. This knowledge is used to develop new therapies and diagnostics. Currently, more than 800 scientists and investigators are conducting research in oncology, immunology and inflammation, genetics, psychiatry, neurology, pediatrics, surgery, urology, obstetrics/gynecology and many other specialties. In 2008, the Feinstein received funding from the National Institutes of Health in excess of $28 million, and an additional $10 million from other federal sources. Total annual research funding from all sources exceeded $44 million in 2008. We stand at the threshold of an extraordinary time in medicine. Over the last 100 years, biomedical science has progressed very rapidly. Advances coming from the integration of genomics, proteomics and bioinformatics into the biomedical toolkit hold the promise that this transformation will continue well into the 21st century. The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research is a growing force in research innovation, education and progress.

http://www.stanford.edu/group/brainsinsilicon/neurogrid.html

A specialized hardware platform that will perform cortex-scale emulations while offering software-like flexibility. With sixteen 12x14 sq-mm chips (Neurocores) assembled on a 6.5x7.5 sq-in circuit board that can model a slab of cortex with up to 16x256x256 neurons - over a million! The chips are interconnected in a binary tree by 80M spike/sec links. An on-chip RAM (in each Neurocore) and an off-chip RAM (on a daughterboard, not shown) softwire vertical and horizontcal cortical connections, respectively. It provides an affordable option for brain simulations that uses analog computation to emulate ion-channel activity and uses digital communication to softwire synaptic connections. These technologies impose different constraints, because they operate in parallel and in serial, respectively. Analog computation constrains the number of distinct ion-channel populations that can be simulatedunlike digital computation, which simply takes longer to run bigger simulations. Digital communication constrains the number of synaptic connections that can be activated per secondunlike analog communication, which simply sums additional inputs onto the same wire. Working within these constraints, Neurogrid achieves its goal of simulating multiple cortical areas in real-time by making judicious choices.

A data warehouse that integrates information on patients from multiple sources and consists of patient information from all the visits to Cincinnati Children''''s between 2003 and 2007. This information includes demographics (age, gender, race), diagnoses (ICD-9), procedures, medications and lab results. They have included extracts from Epic, DocSite, and the new Cerner laboratory system and will eventually load public data sources, data from the different divisions or research cores (such as images or genetic data), as well as the research databases from individual groups or investigators. This information is aggregated, cleaned and de-identified. Once this process is complete, it is presented to the user, who will then be able to query the data. The warehouse is best suited for tasks like cohort identification, hypothesis generation and retrospective data analysis. Automated software tools will facilitate some of these functions, while others will require more of a manual process. The initial software tools will be focused around cohort identification. They have developed a set of web-based tools that allow the user to query the warehouse after logging in. The only people able to see your data are those to whom you grant authorization. If the information can be provided to the general research community, they will add it to the warehouse. If it cannot, they will mark it so that only you (or others in your group with proper approval) can access it.

http://www.geisha.arizona.edu/geisha/

Online repository for chicken in situ hybridization information. This site presents whole mount in situ hybridization images and corresponding probe and genomic information for genes expressed in chicken embryos in Hamburger Hamilton stages 1-25 (0.5-5 days). The GEISHA project began in 1998 to investigate using high throughput whole mount in situ hybridization to identify novel, differentially expressed genes in chicken embryos. An initial expression screen of approximately 900 genes demonstrated feasibility of the approach, and also highlighted the need for a centralized repository of in situ hybridization expression data. Objectives: The goals of the GEISHA project are to obtain whole mount in situ hybridization expression information for all differentially expressed genes in the chicken embryo between HH stages 1-25, to integrate expression data with the chicken genome browsers, and to offer this information through a user-friendly graphical user interface. In situ hybridization images are obtained from three sources: 1. In house high throughput in situ hybridization screening: cDNAs obtained from several embryonic cDNA libraries or from EST repositories are screened for expression using high throughput in situ hybridization approaches. 2. Literature curation: Agreements with journals permit posting of published in situ hybridization images and related information on the GEISHA site. 3. Unpublished in situ hybridization information from other laboratories: laboratories generally publish only a small fraction of their in situ hybridization data. High quality images for which probe identity can be verified are welcome additions to GEISHA.

http://gene3d.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/Gene3D/

A large database of CATH protein domain assignments for ENSEMBL genomes and Uniprot sequences. Gene3D is a resource of form studying proteins and the component domains. Gene3D takes CATH domains from Protein Databank (PDB) structures and assigns them to the millions of protein sequences with no PDB structures using Hidden Markov models. Assigning a CATH superfamily to a region of a protein sequence gives information on the gross 3D structure of that region of the protein. CATH superfamilies have a limited set of functions and so the domain assignment provides some functional insights. Furthermore most proteins have several different domains in a specific order, so looking for proteins with a similar domain organization provides further functional insights. Strict confidence cut-offs are used to ensure the reliability of the domain assignments. Gene3D imports functional information from sources such as UNIPROT, and KEGG. They also import experimental datasets on request to help researchers integrate there data with the corpus of the literature. The website allows users to view descriptions for both single proteins and genes and large protein sets, such as superfamilies or genomes. Subsets can then be selected for detailed investigation or associated functions and interactions can be used to expand explorations to new proteins. The Gene3D web services provide programmatic access to the CATH-Gene3D annotation resources and in-house software tools. These services include Gene3DScan for identifying structural domains within protein sequences, access to pre-calculated annotations for the major sequence databases, and linked functional annotation from UniProt, GO and KEGG., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

Deja vu is a database of extremely similar Medline citations. Many, but not all, of which contain instances of duplicate publication and potential plagiarism. Deja vu is a dynamic resource for the community, with manual curation ongoing continuously, and we welcome input and comments. In the scientific research community plagiarism and multiple publications of the same data are considered unacceptable practices and can result in tremendous misunderstanding and waste of time and energy. Our peers and the public have high expectations for the performance and behavior of scientists during the execution and reporting of research. With little chance for discovery and decreasing budgets, yet sustained pressure to publish, or without a clear understanding of acceptable publication practices, the unethical practices of duplicate publication and plagiarism can be enticing to some. Until now, discovery has been through serendipity alone, so these practices have largely gone unchecked.
