The project began as a pilot study to identify inherited genetic susceptibility to prostate and breast cancer. CGEMS has developed into a robust research program involving genome-wide association studies (GWASs) for a number of cancers to identify common genetic variants that affect a person''s risk of developing cancer. In collaboration with extramural scientists, NCI''s Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG) has carried out genome-wide scans for breast, prostate, pancreatic, and lung cancers, while a GWAS of bladder cancer is currently underway. By making the data available to both intramural and extramural research scientists, as well as those in the private sector through rapid posting, NIH can leverage its resources to ensure that the dramatic advances in genomics are incorporated into rigorous population-based studies. Ultimately, findings from these studies may yield new preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic interventions for cancer. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the U.S. National Institues Of Health.

The NIH Office of Science Education (OSE) coordinates science education activities at the NIH and develops and sponsors science education projects in house. These programs serve elementary, secondary, and college students and teachers and the public. Activities * Develop curriculum supplements and other educational materials related to medicine and research through collaborations with scientific experts at NIH * Maintain a website as a central source of information about NIH science education resources * Establish national model programs in public science education, such as the NIH Mini-Med School and Science in the Cinema * Promote science education reform as outlined in the National Science Education Standards and related guidelines The OSE was established in 1991 within the Office of Science Policy of the Office of the Director of the National Institutes of Health. The NIH is the world''s foremost biomedical research center and the U.S. federal government''s focal point for such research. It is one of the components of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The Office of Science Education (OSE) plans, develops, and coordinates a comprehensive science education program to strengthen and enhance efforts of the NIH to attract young people to biomedical and behavioral science careers and to improve science literacy in both adults and children. The function of the Office is as follows: (1) develops, supports, and directs new program initiatives at all levels with special emphasis on targeting students in grades kindergarten to 16, their educators and parents, and the general public; (2) advises NIH leadership on science education issues; (3) examines and evaluates research and emerging trends in science education and literacy for policy making; (4) works closely with the NIH extramural, intramural, women''s health, laboratory animal research, and minority program offices on science education special issues and programs to ensure coordination of NIH efforts; (5) works with NIH institutes, centers, and divisions to enhance communication of science education activities; and (6) works cooperatively with other public- and private-sector organizations to develop and coordinate activities.

NIMH recognizes the need to consider safety and ethical issues related to both the administration of MR (magnetic resonance) facilities and the use of these facilities for research. This document summarizes the points to consider discussed by the National Advisory Mental Health Council (NAMHC) Workgroup. Examples of safe and ethical practices are discussed in relation to several issues. These examples are intended to be illustrative and should not be interpreted as an exhaustive or exclusive list. This document was presented to the full NIMH Council on September 15, 2006 and approved unanimously. By making the points to consider document available publicly, NIMH intends to provide a resource for researchers and institutions that use MRI in research. The agenda was organized into six topics, which provide the organization for the points to consider that follow: A. MRI screening B. Training, operating, and emergency procedures C. Physical facilities D. Scanning/participant health variables E. Context- Specific Considerations: University vs. medical settings F. Additional data needs and updating The NIMH believes that investigators, institutions and facilities can use this document as a resource for the development, administration, evaluation, and use of MRI research facilities.

The 16 affiliated Model System centers throughout the United States are responsible for gathering and submitting the core data set to the national database as well as conducting research studies on traumatic brain injury (TBI) both in collaboration with the other centers and within our own site. Through our research we hope to learn more about TBI and about the issues and concerns of people with TBI. Our goals are to improve the outcome and quality of life for people who have had brain injuries and for those who are caring for the person with a TBI. The North Texas Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (NT-TBIMS) pools the efforts and talents of individuals from the Departments of Neurosurgery, Neurology, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Psychiatry (Neuropsychiatry), and Neuroradiology of the two leading medical institutions in the North Texas region. To be a patient involved in the research being conducted by the North Texas Traumatic Brain Injury Model System you must have suffered a TBI, be at least 16 years of age, have received initial treatment for the TBI at either Parkland Health and Hospital System or Baylor University Medical Center and then have received rehabilitative care at either Parkland, University Hospital Zale-Lipshy, or Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation. The patient must also be able to understand and sign an informed consent to participate or, if unable, have a family member or a legal guardian who understands the form sign the informed consent for the patient.
