https://kimlab.io/brain-map/epDevAtlas/

Suite of open access resources including 3D atlases of early postnatally developing mouse brain and mapped cell type density growth charts, which can be used as standalone resources or to implement data integration. Web platform can be utilized to analyze and visualize the spatiotemporal growth of GABAergic, microglial, and cortical layer-specific cell type densities in 3D. Morphologically averaged symmetric template brains serve as the basis reference space and coordinate system with an isotropic resolution of 20 μm (XYZ in coronal plane). Average transformations were conducted at 20 μm voxel resolution by interpolating high resolution serial two photon tomography images from primarily Vip-IRES-Cre;Ai14 mice at postnatal (P) ages P4, P6, P8, P10, P12, and P14. For all ages, anatomical labels from the P56 Allen Mouse Brain Common Coordinate Framework (Allen CCFv3) were iteratively down registered to each early postnatal time point in a non-linear manner, aided by manual parcellations of landmarks in 3D, consistent with the Allen Mouse Reference Atlas Ontology.

Searchable catalog of enhancer-adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) that have been developed and tested at the Allen Institute for Brain Science. We present a suite of enhancer AAVs that can provide access to specific cell types when delivered to the whole brain. Multiple epigenomic and transcriptomic datasets were interrogated to reveal candidate enhancers that are selectively accessible in particular cell populations. Enhancer AAVs were constructed and screened for desirable expression and a sizeable subset of enhancer AAVs were subjected to further characterization by single cell transcriptomics and/or brain-wide expression imaging in mouse. In the GTA, we present a large toolkit for selective gene expression in cell types of interest. Genetic Tools Atlas is part of the growing Brain Knowledge Platform.

http://www.fz-juelich.de/ime/spm_anatomy_toolbox

A MATLAB toolbox which uses three dimensional probabilistic cytoarchitechtonic maps to correlate microscopic, anatomic and functional data of the cerebral cortex. Correlating the activation foci identified in functional imaging studies of the human brain with structural (e.g., cytoarchitectonic) information on the activated areas is a major methodological challenge for neuroscience research. We here present a new approach to make use of three-dimensional probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps, as obtained from the analysis of human post-mortem brains, for correlating microscopical, anatomical and functional imaging data of the cerebral cortex. We introduce a new, MATLAB based toolbox for the SPM2 software package which enables the integration of probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and results of functional imaging studies. The toolbox includes the functionality for the construction of summary maps combining probability of several cortical areas by finding the most probable assignment of each voxel to one of these areas. Its main feature is to provide several measures defining the degree of correspondence between architectonic areas and functional foci. The software, together with the presently available probability maps, is available as open source software to the neuroimaging community. This new toolbox provides an easy-to-use tool for the integrated analysis of functional and anatomical data in a common reference space.

Data sets of clinical / behavioral and image data are available for download by qualified researchers from a seven year, multi-site, longitudinal study using magnetic resonance technologies to study brain maturation in healthy, typically-developing infants, children, and adolescents and to correlate brain development with cognitive and behavioral development. The information obtained in this study is expected to provide essential data for understanding the course of normal brain development as a basis for understanding atypical brain development associated with a variety of developmental, neurological, and neuropsychiatric disorders affecting children and adults. This study enrolled over 500 children, ranging from infancy to young adulthood. The goal was to study each participant at least three times over the course of the project at one of six Pediatric Centers across the United States. Brain MR and clinical/behavioral data have been compiled and analyzed at a Data Coordinating Center and Clinical Coordinating Center. Additionally, MR spectroscopy and DTI data are being analyzed. The study was organized around two objectives corresponding to two age ranges at the time of enrollment, each with its own protocols. * Objective 1 enrolled children ages 4 years, 6 months through 18 years (total N = 433). This sample was recruited across the six Pediatric Study Centers using community based sampling to reflect the demographics of the United States in terms of income, race, and ethnicity. The subjects were studied with both imaging and clinical/behavioral measures at two year intervals for three time points. * Objective 2 enrolled newborns, infants, toddlers, and preschoolers from birth through 4 years, 5 months, who were studied three or more times at two Pediatric Study Centers at intervals ranging from three months for the youngest subjects to one year as the children approach the Objective 1 age range. Both imaging and clinical/behavioral measures were collected at each time point. Participant recruitment used community based sampling that included hospital venues (e.g., maternity wards and nurseries, satellite physician offices, and well-child clinics), community organizations (e.g., day-care centers, schools, and churches), and siblings of children participating in other research at the Pediatric Study Centers. At timepoint 1, of those enrolled, 114 children had T1 scans that passed quality control checks. Staged data release plan: The first data release included structural MR images and clinical/behavioral data from the first assessments, Visit 1, for Objective 1. A second data release included structural MRI and clinical/behavioral data from the second visit for Objective 1. A third data release included structural MRI data for both Objective 1 and 2 and all time points, as well as preliminary spectroscopy data. A fourth data release added cortical thickness, gyrification and cortical surface data. Yet to be released are longitudinally registered anatomic MRI data and diffusion tensor data. A collaborative effort among the participating centers and NIH resulted in age-appropriate MR protocols and clinical/behavioral batteries of instruments. A summary of this protocol is available as a Protocol release document. Details of the project, such as study design, rationale, recruitment, instrument battery, MRI acquisition details, and quality controls can be found in the study protocol. Also available are the MRI procedure manual and Clinical/Behavioral procedure manuals for Objective 1 and Objective 2.

http://www.nimh.nih.gov/research-priorities/rdoc/index.shtml

NIMH Strategic Plan developing, for research purposes, new ways of classifying psychopathology based on dimensions of observable behavior and neurobiological measures. In brief, the effort is to define basic dimensions of functioning (such as fear circuitry or working memory) to be studied across multiple units of analysis, from genes to neural circuits to behaviors, cutting across disorders as traditionally defined. The intent is to translate rapid progress in basic neurobiological and behavioral research to an improved integrative understanding of psychopathology and the development of new and/or optimally matched treatments for mental disorders. The various domains of functioning, and their constituent elements, are being defined by an ongoing series of consensus workshops; input from the research community and other interested stakeholders is encouraged.
