A database containing genome-wide brain DNA methylation profiles for human and mouse brains. The DNA methylation profiles were generated by Methylation Mapping Analysis by Paired-end Sequencing (Methyl-MAPS) method and analyzed by Methyl-Analyzer software package. The methylation profiles cover over 80% CpG dinucleotides in human and mouse brains in single-CpG resolution. The integrated genome browser (modified from UCSC Genome Browser allows users to browse DNA methylation profiles in specific genomic loci, to search specific methylation patterns, and to compare methylation patterns between individual samples. Two species were included in the Brain Methylome Database: human and mouse. Human postmortem brain samples were obtained from three distinct cortical regions, i.e., dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), ventral prefrontal cortex (vPFC), and auditory cortex (AC). Human samples were selected from our postmortem brain collection with extensive neuropathological and psychopathological data, as well as brain toxicology reports. The Department of Psychiatry of Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute have assembled this brain collection, where a validated psychological autopsy method is used to generate Axis I and II DSM IV diagnoses and data are obtained on developmental history, history of psychiatric illness and treatment, and family history for each subject. The mouse sample (strain 129S6/SvEv) DNA was collected from the entire left cerebral hemisphere. The three human brain regions were selected because they have been implicated in the neuropathology of depression and schizophrenia. Within each cortical region, both disease and non-psychiatric samples have been profiled (matching subjects by age and sex in each group). Such careful matching of subjects allows one to perform a wide range of queries with the ability to characterize methylation features in non-psychiatric controls, as well as detect differentially methylated domains or features between disease and non-psychiatric samples. A total of 14 non-psychiatric, 9 schizophrenic, and 6 depression methylation profiles are included in the database.

http://code.google.com/p/lapdftext/

Software that facilitates accurate extraction of text from PDF files of research articles for use in text mining applications. It is intended for both scientists and natural language processing (NLP) engineers interested in getting access to text within specific sections of research articles. The system extracts text blocks from PDF-formatted full-text research articles and classifies them into logical units based on rules that characterize specific sections. The LA-PDFText system focuses only on the textual content of the research articles. The current version of LA-PDFText is a baseline system that extracts text using a three-stage process: * identification of blocks of contiguous text * classification of these blocks into rhetorical categories * extraction of the text from blocks grouped section-wise.

http://www.mbl.org/mbl_main/atlas.html

High-resolution electronic atlases for mouse strains c57bl/6j, a/j, and dba/2j in either coronal or horizontal section. About this Atlas: The anterior-posterior coordinates are taken from an excellent print atlas of a C57BL/6J brain by K. Franklin and G. Paxinos (The Mouse Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates, Academic Press, San Diego, 1997, ISBN Number 0-12-26607-6; Library of Congress: QL937.F72). The abbreviations we have used to label the sections conform to those in the Franklin-Paxinos atlas. A C57BL/6J mouse brain may contain as many as 75 million neurons, 23 million glial cells, 7 million endothelial cells associated with blood vessels, and 3 to 4 million miscellaneous pial, ependymal, and choroid plexus cells (see data analysis in Williams, 2000). We have not yet counted total cell number in DBA/2J mice, but the counts are probably appreciably lower.The brain and sections were all processed as described in our methods section. The enlarged images have a pixel count of 1865 x 1400 and the resolution is 4.5 microns/pixel for the processed sections.Plans: In the next several years we hope to add several additional atlases of the same sort for other strains of mice. A horizontal C57BL/6J atlas and a DBA/2J coronal atlas were completed by Tony Capra, summer 2000, and additional atlases may be made over the next several years. As describe in the MBL Procedures Section is not hard to make your own strain-specific atlas from the high resolution images in the MBL.

A database of imaging probes useful for preclinical and clinical studies. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the Society for Non-Invasive Imaging in Drug Development (SNIDD) are in the process of creating a centralized, searchable PET, SPECT, and MRI tracer database as a resource for the scientific community. The goal of this effort is to promote the use of imaging probes in preclinical and clinical research and in drug discovery to accelerate the identification and validation of novel targets for therapeutic intervention in human diseases, especially those with central nervous system components. NIMH will maintain the tracer database as part of the Psychoactive Drug Screening Program (PDSP). The database will contain records for each radiotracer with relevant information such as target, research uses, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, synthesis protocols, toxicology and safety data, dosimetry, other clinical data, IND info, permission to cross-reference pharmacology, toxicology, or safety data in a drug master file (if an IND exists), contact information, patent, etc. with appropriate safeguards in place to protect the intellectual property of proprietary compounds.

Human genetics data from an immense (78,000) and ethnically diverse population available for secondary analysis to qualified researchers through the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). It offers the opportunity to identify potential genetic risks and influences on a broad range of health conditions, particularly those related to aging. The GERA cohort is part of the Research Program on Genes, Environment, and Health (RPGEH), which includes more than 430,000 adult members of the Kaiser Permanente Northern California system. Data from this larger cohort include electronic medical records, behavioral and demographic information from surveys, and saliva samples from 200,000 participants obtained with informed consent for genomic and other analyses. The RPGEH database was made possible largely through early support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to accelerate such health research. The genetic information in the GERA cohort translates into more than 55 billion bits of genetic data. Using newly developed techniques, the researchers conducted genome-wide scans to rapidly identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genomes of the people in the GERA cohort. These data will form the basis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that can look at hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs at the same time. The RPGEH then combined the genetic data with information derived from Kaiser Permanente''s comprehensive longitudinal electronic medical records, as well as extensive survey data on participants'' health habits and backgrounds, providing researchers with an unparalleled research resource. As information is added to the Kaiser-UCSF database, the dbGaP database will also be updated.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 19,2025. Software application that allows the researcher to evaluate evidence for linkage even when heterogeneity is present in a data set. This is not an unusual occurrence when studying diseases of complex origin. Families are ranked by covariate values in order to test evidence for linkage among homogeneous subsets of families. Because families are ranked, a priori covariate cutpoints are not necessary. Covariates may include linkage evidence at other genes, environmental exposures, or biological trait values such as cholesterol, age at onset, and so on.

https://github.com/SciKnowEngine/kefed.io

Knowledge engineering software for reasoning with scientific observations and interpretations. The software has three parts: (a) the KEfED model editor - a design editor for creating KEfED models by drawing a flow diagram of an experimental protocol; (b) the KEfED data interface - a spreadsheet-like tool that permits users to enter experimental data pertaining to a specific model; (c) a "neural connection matrix" interface that presents neural connectivity as a table of ordinal connection strengths representing the interpretations of tract-tracing data. This tool also allows the user to view experimental evidence pertaining to a specific connection. The KEfED model is designed to provide a lightweight representation for scientific knowledge that is (a) generalizable, (b) a suitable target for text-mining approaches, (c) relatively semantically simple, and (d) is based on the way that scientist plan experiments and should therefore be intuitively understandable to non-computational bench scientists. The basic idea of the KEfED model is that scientific observations tend to have a common design: there is a significant difference between measurements of some dependent variable under conditions specified by two (or more) values of some independent variable.
