The mission of ILAR is to evaluate and disseminate information on issues related to the scientific, technological, and ethical use of animals and related biological resources in research, testing, and education. Using the principles of refinement, reduction, and replacement (3Rs) as a foundation, ILAR promotes high-quality science through the humane care and use of animals and the implementation of alternatives. Through the reports of expert committees, the ILAR Journal, web-based resources, and other means of communication, ILAR functions as a component of the National Academies to provide independent, objective advice to the federal government, the international biomedical research community, and the public. ILAR supports the responsible use of animals in research, testing, and education as a key component to advancing the health and quality of life of humans and animals. It promotes high-quality science and humane care and use of research animals based upon the principles of refinement, replacement, and reduction (the 3Rs) and high ethical standards. It fosters best practices that enhance human and animal welfare by organizing and disseminating information and by facilitating dialogue among interested parties. It has developed a unique Search Engine to search for animal models and strains. This search engine surveys all the websites of vendors and repositories of laboratory animals and biological material on our Links page. The ILAR develops guidelines on laboratory animal care and use and conducts conferences, symposia, and workshops on important laboratory animal problems. ILAR publishes the ILAR Journal on a quarterly basis, as well as conference proceedings and special reports prepared by committees of experts. A list of ILAR publications on issues related to laboratory animal research is available on the Web site. As part of the Animal Models and Genetic Stocks Information Exchange Program, ILAR staff members answer direct telephone and mail inquiries and maintain a Web page containing a database on animal models and genetic stock. The Web site also offers a comprehensive search engine that enables users to find information on the existence and location of special animal models, correct nomenclature to identify animals, and related topics such as diseases of animals and relevant publications. Sponsors: ILAR receives funding from the following sponsors: -Abbott Laboratories -Abbott Fund -American College of Laboratory Animal Medicine (ACLAM) -American Society of Laboratory Animal Practitioners (ASLAP) -Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) -Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. -Charles River -Charles River Laboratories Foundation -Covance -Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) -GlaxoSmithKline -Merck & Co., Inc. -National Science Foundation (NSF) -Pfizer -Scientists Center for Animal Welfare (SCAW) -U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) -U.S. Department of the Army -U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) :*National Institutes of Health (NIH) :*Office of Research Integrity (ORI) -U.S. Department of the Navy -U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs -Wellcome Trust -Wyeth Pharmaceuticals

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on May 18th, 2016. A foundation that was founded in 2001, and sponsors academic centers throughout the US. The MIchael Stern Parkinson's Research Foundation focuses its efforts mainly on finding the causes of the disease, finding effective treatments, and discovering a cure for the disease. The foundation is notably looking into dopamine and its effects on neural connections, as well its possibility to be used for treatment.
Dr. Greengard has assembled a close knit group of more than 25 outstanding scientists who are focused on translating the fundamental understandings about the dopamine system into new treatments for Parkinson's. The core team of researchers is based at the Stern Foundation laboratory on the campus of The Rockefeller University interacts continually with collaborators from the United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Italy, Japan and Korea. This global presence ensures that no promising research lead is overlooked, and that progress can be made on multiple fronts simultaneously. As the Foundation grew it was able to expand its support for critical neurological research to two other institutions, Harvard University's McLean Hospital, where we support the research of Dr. Ole Isacson whose research lab, The Stern Center for Neuroregeneration Research is using gene therapy to protect the most vulnerable neurons in PD models; and the Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders, where Yale Professors Dr. Ken Marek and Dr. John Seibyl are developing novel tools for early detection and monitoring of Parkinson's disease by studying physiologic, biochemical and neuroimaging biomarkers for non-dominergic manifestations of Parkinsonism. :NIF thanks the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, http://www.pdf.org for their referral of this resource to us.

The SCRM-CTBB offers state-of-the-art infrastructure and technologies (e.g. cryogenic work bench, semiautomatic cryogenic storage system, uninterrupted cooling chain) and is structured into two areas, including research and a GMP/GCP regulated therapeutic applications. Research: For pre-clinical studies, the SCRM-CTBB provides researchers guidance regarding cell and tissue cryo-preservation, comprising registration, handling, storage and distribution. In order to ensure complete traceability on samples and belonging information all processes are controlled by a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and Quality Assurance (QA) system. The SCRM Biobank is designed to create database that allows connection with other biobanks nationally and internationally. This meta-data file will enable a unique scientific resource for interdisciplinary research. For every new study a contract is established describing the study and the disposition rights. Assistance in writing Biobank Agreements (BAs) and Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) is provided. Therapeutical applications: As a new feature, apart from research, the SCRM Biobank enables the asservation and preservation of cells and tissues under GMP conditions for later therapeutic use. A special focus will be on a conceptional combination of private and public umbilical cord blood banking (hybrid banking), which allows autologous and/or allogeneic cell applications.
