Initiative which defines standards for the description and exchange of aggregations of Web resources. The intent of the effort is to develop standards that generalize across all web-based information including the increasing popular social networks of web 2.0. The goal of these standards is to expose the rich content in these aggregations (sometimes called compound digital objects, they may combine distributed resources with multiple media types including text, images, data, and video) to applications that support authoring, deposit, exchange, visualization, reuse, and preservation. The specific aim of the ORE effort is to promote (through creation or endorsement) effective and consistent mechanisms which: facilitate discovery of compound digital objects; reference (or link to) these objects (as well as parts thereof); obtain a variety of disseminations of these objects; aggregate and disaggregate objects; and enable processing of objects by automated agents.

It is the most comprehensive child care study conducted to date to determine how variations in child care are related to children''s development. The NICHD SECCYD is a longitudinal study initiated by The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) in 1989 to answer the many questions about the relationship between child care experiences and characteristics and children''s developmental outcomes. After a thorough scientific review, the NICHD selected a research team located at universities across the U.S., and at the NICHD, together providing multiple perspectives on and interests in child care research. The network was led and managed by a Steering Committee which included an independent chairperson, one representative from each of the grantee sites, one representative from the data center and one representative from NICHD. The Steering Committee established policies and procedures that governed the operations of the network, including its publication procedures. The progress of the study was monitored by NICHD and by the Steering Committee with guidance from an Advisory Board which was nominated by the Director of NICHD. This team of researchers worked cooperatively to design and implement the study, and in 1991, enrolled a very diverse sample of children and their families at 10 locations across the U.S. The NICHD SECCYD is characterized by a complex and detailed study design which takes into account many variables, including characteristics of the child care and the family environment. Researchers assessed children''s development using multiple methods (trained observers, interviewers, questionnaires, and testing) and measuring many facets of children''s development (social, emotional, intellectual, language development, behavioral problems and adjustment, and physical health). The 1,364 children and their families enrolled in the study were followed from birth to age 3 years during Phase I of the study from 1991-1994. Phase II of the study was conducted between 1995-2000 to follow the 1226 children and families continuing to participate from age 54 months through their second year in school. Phase III of the study was conducted between 2000 - 2005 to follow over 1100 of the children through their seventh year in school. Phase IV was conducted between 2006 2007 to follow over 1000 of the original families through age 15. The NICHD SECCYD was conducted by a network of investigators, the NICHD Early Child Care Research Network. You may view information regarding data assessments, study publications, as well as a listing of the study researchers and committee members on the study website located at http://secc.rti.org. Qualified researchers are able to become affiliates with the study to utilize data from all phases of the study. As of January 2009, the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) at the University of Michigan assumed responsibility for the administration of data use agreements for the Phase I IV data. The ICPSR Data Use Agreement can be found at the following location: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/21940/documentation. If you have questions regarding the ICPSR process, please contact Russel Hathaway at rhataway (at) umich.edu.

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 clustering tool designed mainly for Metagenomics studies, which clusters 16S rRNA sequences into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTU). By using a Gaussian Mixture model, CROP can automatically determine the best clustering result for 16S rRNA sequences at different phylogenetic levels without setting a hard cutoff threshold as hierarchical clustering does. Yet, at the same time, it is able to manage large datasets and to overcome sequencing errors.

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.
