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.

Brain bank resources which include postmortem human frozen brain tissue and matched cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood available for scientists to search for etiopathogeneses of human disease. The National Neurological Research Specimen Bank and the Multiple Sclerosis Human Neurospecimen Bank maintains a collection of quick frozen and formalin fixed postmortem human brain tissue and frozen cerebrospinal fluid from patients with neurological diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, depressive disorder/suicide, and epilepsy, among others. Diagnoses are documented by clinical medical records and gross/microscopic neuropathology. The Neuropathology Laboratory at the UCLA Medical Center maintains a bank of frozen, formalin and paraformaldehyde-fixed and paraffin-embedded postmortem human brain tissues and frozen cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients who die with Alzheimer's disease and other dementing and degenerative illnesses, as well as control materials removed in a similar fashion from patients who are neurologically normal.

A brain bank and laboratory focused on memory and motor disorders. Brains are sent to the laboratory for diagnosis and research for the State of Florida Alzheimer Disease Initiative and for the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. As part of this brain banking function, fixed and frozen brain samples are obtained at autopsy and sent to the laboratory for diagnostic evaluation and for various types of research studies. The major types of analyses performed on the brain samples include neuro-histology, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, electron microscopy and image analysis, as well as immunoassays. The latter are based upon Western blotting and enzyme linked immunoassays. The laboratory has a specific interest in the interface between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease, as well as in non-Alzheimer's degenerative disorders such as Lewy body dementia, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy and frontotemporal dementia. The primary focus of research on aging is neuropathologic characterization of brains of individuals who had been prospectively and longitudinally evaluated during life. These studies aim to determine differences in a range of biologic parameters in brains of people with normal cognitive, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Their focus on Parkinson's disease is to identify preclinical Parkinson's disease in order to develop means for early diagnosis.

Collects, stores, and distributes samples of nervous tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and other tissue from HIV-infected individuals. The NNTC mission is to bolster research on the effects of HIV infection on human brain by providing high-quality, well-characterized tissue samples from patients who died with HIV, and for whom comprehensive neuromedical and neuropsychiatric data were gathered antemortem. Researchers can request tissues from patients who have been characterized by: * degree of neurobehavioral impairment * neurological and other clinical diagnoses * history of drug use * antiretroviral treatments * blood and CSF viral load * neuropathological diagnosis The NNTC encourages external researchers to submit tissue requests for ancillary studies. The Specimen Query Tool is a web-based utility that allows researchers to quickly sort and identify appropriate NNTC specimens to support their research projects. The results generated by the tool reflect the inventory at a previous time. Actual availability at the local repositories may vary as specimens are added or distributed to other investigators.

Multidisciplinary research team devoted to the study of basic neuroscience with a specific interest in the description and generation of dendritic morphology, and in its effect on neuronal electrophysiology. In the long term, they seek to create large-scale, anatomically plausible neural networks to model entire portions of a mammalian brain (such as a hippocampal slice, or a cortical column). Achievements by the CNG include the development of software for the quantitative analysis of dendritic morphology, the implementation of computational models to simulate neuronal structure, and the synthesis of anatomically accurate, large scale neuronal assemblies in virtual reality. Based on biologically plausible rules and biophysical determinants, they have designed stochastic models that can generate realistic virtual neurons. Quantitative morphological analysis indicates that virtual neurons are statistically compatible with the real data that the model parameters are measured from. Virtual neurons can be generated within an appropriate anatomical context if a system level description of the surrounding tissue is included in the model. In order to simulate anatomically realistic neural networks, axons must be grown as well as dendrites. They have developed a navigation strategy for virtual axons in a voxel substrate.
