Hi. I''m genegeek (aka Catherine Anderson). I realized during my PostDoc that I preferred learning and explaining new results to doing science so I started a non-traditional career of teaching and outreach. I''ll be using this space to explore public perception of genetics and other cool molecular biology stuff. I hope to add to the great discussions re: new science discoveries and general understanding of genetics. I''ve been running an outreach program and enjoy talking to non-experts about their opinions and understanding. I hope my enthusiasm for the topics can come through the screen. My posts are presented as opinion and commentary and do not represent the views of LabSpaces Productions, LLC, my employer, or my educational institution.

A blog produced by the NEJM publishing communications team about new and innovative content in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM.org). Our goal is to inform you about what''s new and provide some additional context to complement the content published in NEJM. Each week we post a piece under Insights about one of the latest research papers in NEJM, discussing its clinical significance, where it may lead us in practice and research, and often giving an editor''s thoughts about why it was important to publish. We pose questions to stimulate your thinking and discussion. The idea is to make it easy for you to give us your views on a particular topic and make the conversation accessible to other doctors and physicians-in-training. Posts contain links to the full article, which will be free to all visitors for a limited time. We also feature two posts from the Resident e-Bulletin each week, with an article summary, Clinical Pearls, and Morning Report Questions teaching points that many of you find so useful in your roles as teachers or trainees. The blog gives us a new way to distribute and store this educational information on the social web, again, inviting comment and discussion. You''ll also hear about new products and applications as we bring them out, such as new Interactive Medical Cases, or iPhone applications, like NEJM This Week and the Image Challenge. We link to videos on the NEJMvideo channel on YouTube, share our Twitter feed, and links to NEJM in the News, too. We''d like this to be an open forum, complementary to the core content of NEJM, engaging you in a new experience beyond the journal page in a more interactive community.

A national mouse monoclonal antibody generating resource for biochemical and immunohistochemical applications in mammalian brain. NeuroMabs are generated from mice immunized with synthetic and recombinant immunogens corresponding to components of the neuronal proteome as predicted from genomic and other large-scale cloning efforts. Comprehensive biochemical and immunohistochemical analyses of human, primate and non-primate mammalian brain are incorporated into the initial NeuroMab screening procedure. This yields a subset of mouse mAbs that are optimized for use in brain (i.e. NeuroMabs): for immunocytochemical-based imaging studies of protein localization in adult, developing and pathological brain samples, for biochemical analyses of subunit composition and post-translational modifications of native brain proteins, and for proteomic analyses of native brain protein networks. The NeuroMab facility was initially funded with a five-year U24 cooperative grant from NINDS and NIMH. The initial goal of the facility for this funding period is to generate a library of novel NeuroMabs against neuronal proteins, initially focusing on membrane proteins (receptors/channels/transporters), synaptic proteins, other neuronal signaling molecules, and proteins with established links to disease states. The scope of the facility was expanded with supplements from the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research to include neurodevelopmental targets, the NIH Roadmap for Medical Research to include epigenetics targets, and NIH Office of Rare Diseases Research to include rare disease targets. These NeuroMabs will then be produced on a large scale and made available to the neuroscience research community on an inexpensive basis as tissue culture supernatants or purified immunoglobulin by Antibodies Inc. The UC Davis/NIH NeuroMab Facility makes NeuroMabs available directly to end users and is unable to accommodate sales to distributors for third party distribution. Note, NeuroMab antibodies are now offered through antibodiesinc.

The NIGMS Repository contains more than 10,600 cell lines, primarily fibroblasts and transformed lymphoblasts, and over 5,500 DNA samples. The NIGMS Repository has a major emphasis on heritable diseases and chromosomally aberrant cell lines. In addition, it contains a large collection dedicated to understanding human variation that includes samples from populations around the world, the CEPH collection, the Polymorphism Discovery Resource, and many apparently healthy controls. Human induced pluripotent stem cell lines, many of which were derived from NIGMS Repository fibroblasts, have recently become available through the NIGMS Repository. Sample donation facilitates all areas of research by making available well-characterized materials to any qualified researcher who might have otherwise been unable to invest the time and resources to collect needed samples independently. Donations to the Repository have created a resource of unparalleled scope. Samples from the collection have been used in more than 5,500 publications and are distributed to scientists in more than 50 countries. This resource is continuously expanding to support new directions in human genetics.

PLoS Blogs has been set up to bring a select group of independent science and medicine bloggers together with the editors and staff who run our blogs. Our independent network is made up of writers who love science and medicine, and scientists and physicians that love to write. Here, you'll find an equal mix of blogs from journalists and researchers tackling diverse issues in science and medicine. There are three very distinct types of blogs on the PLoS Blogs network: the official PLoS blog, the PLoS journal blogs (collectively known as The PLoS Blogs), and blogs from the independent network (a.k.a. The PLoS Blogosphere) # The official PLoS blog: This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by PLoS staff. # The journal blogs: This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by PLoS journal staff: The current journal blogs are Speaking of Medicine (PLoS Medicine's blog) and everyONE (PLoS ONE's blog). # Our independent network of bloggers (The PLoS Blogosphere): This content is produced, edited, and/or maintained by the authors. * All of the content in The PLoS Blogosphere came from the minds of the authors. PLoS does not screen, edit, or otherwise meddle with content on the these blogs in any way. Our bloggers and our users are held to exactly the same standards, and the community guidelines apply to everyone that uses our site. If a blogger has posted content that you believe violates our site abuse policy, please contact PLoS. * Bloggers monitor their own comment threads: All comments will be reviewed by the author of the blog where you leave your thoughts. Just follow our simple community guidelines and we'll all get along just fine.

A database of brain neuroanatomic volumetric observations spanning various species, diagnoses, and structures for both individual and group results. A major thrust effort is to enable electronic access to the results that exist in the published literature. Currently, there is quite limited electronic or searchable methods for the data observations that are contained in publications. This effort will facilitate the dissemination of volumetric observations by making a more complete corpus of volumetric observations findable to the neuroscience researcher. This also enhances the ability to perform comparative and integrative studies, as well as metaanalysis. Extensions that permit pre-published, non-published and other representation are planned, again to facilitate comparative analyses. Design strategy: The principle organizing data structure is the "publication". Publications report on "groups" of subjects. These groups have "demographic" information as well as "volume" information for the group as a whole. Groups are comprised of "individuals", which also have demographic and volume information for each of the individuals. The finest-grained data structure is the "individual volume record" which contains a volume observation, the units for the observation, and a pointer to the demographic record for individual upon which the observation is derived. A collection of individual volumes can be grouped into a "group volume" observation; the group can be demographically characterized by the distribution of individual demographic observations for the members of the group.
