Dataset including a T1 weighted anatomical image as well as two 10-minute resting state scans acquired during the same session from 25 psychiatrically screened healthy adults (community sample) ranging in age from 18 to 65 years old, with age, sex, education level, and ethnicity provided. Some subjects also returned several weeks after the first scan for a second scanning session. The number of days between scan sessions, for subjects that had two sessions, is indicated in the demographics spreadsheet. The study scanning protocol included: # 13 sec localizer # 4 minute 38 second T1 weighted anatomical # Subject given instructions for resting state scan #1 # 10 minute 4 second resting state scan #1 # Subject given instructions for resting state scan #2 # 10 minute 4 second resting state scan #2 Scanning was performed on one of three different 3T Siemens TIM TRIOs at the Human Neuroimaging Lab at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. All scans were acquired using the standard Siemen''s TIM 12-channel head matrix. The resting state scans were acquired with a custom sequence that is a slight modification to the standard Siemen''s EPI sequence that supports real-time fMRI. Images were acquired slightly oblique to minimize dephasing in the orbito-frontal cortex. Detailed scanning parameters are included in separate .pdf files.

http://HIVBrainSeqDB.org

The HIV Brain Sequence Database (HIVBrainSeqDB) is a public database of HIV envelope sequences, directly sequenced from brain and other tissues from the same patients. For inclusion in the database, sequences must: (i) be deposited in Genbank; (ii) include some portion of the HIV env region; (iii) be clonal, amplified directly from tissue; and (iv) be sampled from the brain, or sampled from a patient for which the database already contains brain sequence. Sequences are annotated with clinical data including viral load, CD4 count, antiretroviral status, neurocognitive impairment, and neuropathological diagnosis, all curated from the original publication. Tissue source is coded using an anatomical ontology, the Foundational Model of Anatomy, to capture the maximum level of detail available, while maintaining ontological relationships between tissues and their subparts. 44 tissue types are represented within the database, grouped into 4 categories: (i) brain, brainstem, and spinal cord; (ii) meninges, choroid plexus, and CSF; (iii) blood and lymphoid; and (iv) other (bone marrow, colon, lung, liver, etc). Currently, the database contains 2517 envelope sequences from 90 patients, obtained from 22 published studies. 1272 sequences are from brain; the remaining 1245 are from blood, lymph node, spleen, bone marrow, colon, lung and other non-brain tissues. The database interface utilizes a faceted interface, allowing real-time combination of multiple search parameters to assemble a meta-dataset, which can be downloaded for further analysis. This online resource will greatly facilitate analysis of the genetic aspects of HIV macrophage tropism, HIV compartmentalization and evolution within the brain and other tissue reservoirs, and the relationship of these findings to HIV-associated neurological disorders and other clinical consequences of HIV infection.

http://pingstudy.ucsd.edu/

A large multi-site pediatric MRI and genetics data resource to facilitate studies of the genomic landscape of the developing human brain. It includes information about the developing mental and emotional functions of the children to understand the genetic basis of individual differences in brain structure and connectivity, cognition, and personality. Investigators on the project are studying 1400 children between the ages of 3 and 20 years so that links between genetic variation and developing patterns of brain connectivity can be examined. Investigators interested in the effects of a particular gene will be able to search the database for any brain areas or connections between areas that differ as a function of variation in a particular gene, and also to determine if the genes appear to affect the course of brain development at some point during childhood. A data exploration tool has been created for mapping and analyzing MRI data sets collected for PING and related developmental studies. Approved investigators will be able to view raw image sets and derived 3D brain maps of MRI and DTI data, conduct hypothesis testing, and graph brain area measures as they change across the time course of development. PING Cores * Coordinating Core: Functions include project management, screening of participants and maintaining the database * Neuroimaging Core: applying a standardized high-resolution structural MRI protocol involving 3-D T1-weighted scans, a T2-weighted volume, and a set of diffusion-weighted scans with multiple b values and diffusion directions, scans to estimate MRI relaxation rates, and gradient echo EPI scans for resting state fMRI. Importantly, adaptive motion compensation, using ����??PROMO����??, a novel real-time motion correction algorithm will be used. Specific PING protocols for each scanner manufacturer: ** PING MRI Protocol - GE ** PING MRI Protocol - Philips ** PING MRI Protocol - Siemens * Assessment Core: Cognitive assessments for the PING project are conducted using the NIH Toolbox for Cognition. * Genomics Core: functions as a central repository for receipt of saliva samples collected for each study participant. Once received, samples are catalogued, maintained, and DNA is extracted using state-of-the-field laboratory techniques. Ultimately, genome-wide genotyping is performed on the extracted DNA using the Illumina Human660W-Quad BeadChip. PING involves 10 sites throughout the country including UCSD, University of Hawaii, Scripps Genomics, UCLA, UC Davis, Kennedy Krieger Institute/Johns Hopkins, Sacker Institute/Cornell University, University of Massachusetts, Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard, and Yale. Families who may want to participate in the study, or others who want to know more about it, may email questions to ping (at) ucsd.edu.

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/asd/aedb/index.html

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on March 27, 2013. A manual generated database for alternative exons and their properties from numerous species - the data is gathered from literature where these exons have been experimentally verified. Most alternative exons are cassette exons and are expressed in more than two tissues. Of all exons whose expression was reported to be specific for a certain tissue, the majority were expressed in the brain. At the moment, AEdb products that are available are sequence (a database of alternative exons), function (a database of functions attributed to constitutive and alternative exon), regulatory sequence (a database of transcript regulatory motifs), minigenes (a table of minigenes and their associations to splicing events), and diseases (a table of diseases associated with splicing and their associations to AltSplice). Alternative splicing is an important regulatory mechanism of mammalian gene expression. The alternative splicing database (ASD) consortium is systematically collecting and annotating data on alternative splicing. The continuation and upgrade of the ASD consists of computationally and manually generated data. Its largest parts are AltSplice, a value-added database of computationally delineated alternative splicing events. Its data include alternatively spliced introns/exons, events, isoform splicing patterns and isoform peptide sequences. AltSplice data are generated by examining gene-transcript alignments. The data are annotated for various biological features including splicing signals, expression states, (SNP)-mediated splicing and cross-species conservation. AEdb forms the manually curated component of ASD. It is a literature-based data set containing sequence and properties of alternatively spliced exons, functional enumeration of observed splicing events, characterization of observed splicing regulatory elements, and a collection of experimentally clarified minigene constructs.

https://epilepsy.uni-freiburg.de/freiburg-seizure-prediction-project

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on April 29,2025. Electroencephalogram (EEG) data recorded from invasive and scalp electrodes. The EEG database contains invasive EEG recordings of 21 patients suffering from medically intractable focal epilepsy. The data were recorded during an invasive pre-surgical epilepsy monitoring at the Epilepsy Center of the University Hospital of Freiburg, Germany. In eleven patients, the epileptic focus was located in neocortical brain structures, in eight patients in the hippocampus, and in two patients in both. In order to obtain a high signal-to-noise ratio, fewer artifacts, and to record directly from focal areas, intracranial grid-, strip-, and depth-electrodes were utilized. The EEG data were acquired using a Neurofile NT digital video EEG system with 128 channels, 256 Hz sampling rate, and a 16 bit analogue-to-digital converter. Notch or band pass filters have not been applied. For each of the patients, there are datasets called ictal and interictal, the former containing files with epileptic seizures and at least 50 min pre-ictal data. the latter containing approximately 24 hours of EEG-recordings without seizure activity. At least 24 h of continuous interictal recordings are available for 13 patients. For the remaining patients interictal invasive EEG data consisting of less than 24 h were joined together, to end up with at least 24 h per patient. An interdisciplinary project between: * Epilepsy Center, University Hospital Freiburg * Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN), Freiburg * Freiburg Center for Data Analysis and Modeling (FDM).

Suite of programs developed for fMRI analysis in a Virtual Pipeline Laboratory facilitates combining program modules from different software packages into processing pipelines to create analysis solutions which are not possible with a single software package alone. Current pipelines include fMRI analysis, statistical testing based on randomization methods and fractal spectral analysis. Pipelines are continually being added. The software is mostly written in C. This fMRI analysis package supports batch processing and comprises the following general functions at the first level of individual image analysis: movement correction (interpolation and regression), time series modeling, data resampling in the wavelet domain, hypothesis testing at voxel and cluster levels. Additionally, there is code for second level analysis - group and factorial or ANOVA mapping - after co-registration of voxel statistic maps from individual images in a standard space. The main point of difference from other fMRI analysis packages is the emphasis throughout on the use of data resampling (permutation or randomization) as a basis for inference on individual, group and factorial test statistics at voxel and cluster levels of resolution.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 4th,2023. Software to support registering brain images to the stereotaxic coordinate system of a brain atlas. It was specifically designed to work with the large scale brain mosaics. When data are uploaded to the CCDB, users may launch Jibber, a custom tool for defining correspondence points between the image and an atlas overlay. Jibber automatically downsamples the data, so that users can define the warping and scaling parameters with good interactive performance on the smaller copy. Once the warping transformation is computed, the original image and the transformation matrix are sent to a cluster of computers for warping. The current version of Jetsam is running on a 30 Sun V20 nodes and the execution time is roughly about 20 minutes per GB. The warped images are then automatically registered with an image web server that supports spatial queries based on stereotaxic coordinates. These servers generate optimized downsampled images, which can be displayed by standard online clients regardless of the size of the original image.
