http://sourceforge.net/projects/qudaich/

A software package for local sequence alignment for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. It generates the pairwise local alignments between a query dataset against a database. The main design purpose of qudaich is to focus on datasets from next generation sequencing. These the datasets generally have hundreds of thousand sequences or more, and so, the input database should contain large number of sequences. Qudaich is flexible and its algorithmic structure imposes no restriction on the absolute limit of the acceptable read length, but the current version of qudaich allow read length <2000 bp. Qudaich can be used to align DNA, translated DNA and protein sequences.

http://seqbarracuda.sourceforge.net/

A sequence mapping software that utilizes the massive parallelism of graphics processing units to accelerate the inexact alignment of short sequence reads to a particular location on a reference genome. It can align a paired-end library containing 14 million pairs of 76bp reads to the Human genome in about 27 minutes (from fastq files to SAM alignment) using a ��380 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680*. The alignment throughput can be boosted further by using multiple GPUs (up to 8) at the same time. Being based on BWA (http://bio-bwa.sf.net) from the Sanger Institute, BarraCUDA delivers a high level of alignment fidelity and is comparable to other mainstream alignment programs. It can perform gapped alignment with gap extensions, in order to minimise the number of false variant calls in re-sequencing studies.

A cooperative research program to explore the issues related to the complex system of offender treatment services. Nine research centers and a Coordinating Center were created in partnership with researchers, criminal justice professionals, and drug abuse treatment practitioners to form a national research infrastructure. The establishment of CJ-DATS is an outstanding example of cooperation among Federal agencies with the research community... We need to understand how to provide better drug treatment services for criminal justice offenders to alter their drug use and criminal behavior. - Dr. Nora Volkow, Director of NIDA. CJ-DATS PHASE I In 2002, NIDA launched the National Criminal Justice����������Drug Abuse Treatment Studies (CJ-DATS). CJ-DATS is a multisite research program aimed at improving the treatment of offenders with drug use disorders and integrating criminal justice and public health responses to drug involved offenders. From 2002 through 2008, CJ-DATS researchers from 9 research centers, a coordinating center, and NIDA worked together with federal, state, and local criminal justice partners to develop and test integrated approaches to the treatment of offenders with drug use disorders. The areas that were studied included: * Assessing Offender Problems * Measuring Progress in Treatment and Recovery * Linking Criminal Justice and Drug Abuse Treatment * Adolescent Interventions * HIV and Hepatitis Risk Reduction * Understanding Systems CJ-DATS PHASE II In 2008, CJ-DATS began to focus on the problems of implementing research-based practices drug treatment practices. This research concerns the organizational and systems processes involved in implementing valid, evidence-based practices to reduce drug use and drug-related recidivism for individuals in the criminal justice system. 12 CJ-DATS Research Centers are conducting implementation research in three primary domains: * Research to improve the implementation of evidence-based assessment processes for offenders with drug problems * Implementing effective treatment for drug-involved offenders * Implementing evidence-based interventions to improve an HIV continuum-of-care for offenders

The Stanley Medical Research Institute (SMRI) is a nonprofit organization supporting research on the causes of, and treatments for, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Since it began in 1989, SMRI has supported more than $300 million in research in over 30 countries around the world. It is the largest nongovernmental source of funds for research on these diseases in the United States. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are the most important psychiatric disorders in the United States, affecting more than 4 million people at any given time. Until recent years, little research had been done on these diseases, and the treatment of them was unsatisfactory. The neuroscience revolution has brought with it great opportunities for increased understanding of brain diseases such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. SMRI is on the leading edge of this exciting research. Approximately 75 percent of SMRI expenditures goes towards the development of new treatments for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The remaining funds are used for research on the causes of these diseases. SMRI has a close relationship with and is the supporting organization for the Treatment Advocacy Center (TAC). The Treatment Advocacy Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating barriers to the timely and effective treatment of severe psychiatric disorders. TAC promotes laws, policies, and practices for the delivery of psychiatric care and supports the development of innovative treatments for and research into the causes of severe and persistent psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Program that develops materials and methods to improve measurements of autoantibodies that are predictive of type 1 diabetes. These are the most sensitive and meaningful measures for predicting this disease. Historically, autoantibody measures have been variable among laboratories; therefore, this program, in collaboration with the Immunology of Diabetes Society, was established. The goals of DASP are to improve laboratory methods, evaluate laboratory performance, support the development of sensitive and specific measurement technologies, and develop reference methods. Currently, 48 key laboratories from 19 countries participate in DASP.
