http://www.nesys.uio.no/Atlas3D/

A multi-platform visualization tool which allows import and visualization of 3-D atlas structures in combination with tomographic and histological image data. The tool allows visualization and analysis of the reconstructed atlas framework, surface modeling and rotation of selected structures, user-defined slicing at any chosen angle, and import of data produced by the user for merging with the atlas framework. Tomographic image data in NIfTI (Neuroimaging Informatics Technology Initiative) file format, VRML and PNG files can be imported and visualized within the atlas framework. XYZ coordinate lists are also supported. Atlases that are available with the tool include mouse brain structures (3-D reconstructed from The Mouse Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates by Paxinos and Franklin (2001)) and rat brain structures (3-D reconstructed from The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates by Paxinos and Watson (2005)). Experimental data can be imported in Atlas3D and warped to atlas space, using manual linear registration, with the possibility to scale, rotate, and position the imported data. This facilitates assignment of location and comparative analysis of signal location in tomographic images.

The In-Vivo Molecular Imaging Laboratory (IMIL) is a MSSM shared resource facility serving the research community of Mount Sinai with equipment and imaging expertise. State-of-the-art bioluminescent as well as fluorescent imaging modalities are supported for in-vivo monitoring of cellular and genetic activity. Investigators are provided with cutting edge imaging technologies as well as analysis techniques. The long-term goal is to establish a comprehensive SRF for in-vivo molecular imaging using micro-MRI, micro-PET and other modalities. IMIL houses a Xenogen IVIS-200 Series imaging system with the integrated fluorescent imaging options. Simultaneous dual reporter in-vivo imaging is possible with bioluminescence and fluorescence probes. The imaging chamber has a gas anesthesia manifold that can accommodate up to 5 mice for simultaneously image acquisition. Selectable field of views allow in-plane (X,Y) imaging resolutions of up to 60-microm. Integrated spectra filters allow for the determination of signal source depth (Z). IMIL will provide data acquisition services as well as analysis. IMIL has a dedicated imaging technologist for data acquisition. Investigators will bring their prepared animal to the lab and an IMIL imaging technologist will assist in sedating the animals and acquire imaging data. Typical imaging sessions last about an hour. Certified users who are trained in the use of the software will be able to perform their own analysis at the console. Usage of the imaging device is charged by the hour ($100/hour). Structural Imaging The IVIS-200 has the built-in capability of obtaining an image of the surface topography of the animal for 2D and 3D localization. If additional true 3D imaging data is required, micro MRI is available through the Imaging Science Laboratories (ISL). Image Analysis The IVIS-200 has an integrated image acquisition and analysis software (Living Image Software 2.50). Comprehensive data quantification is possible with this software. Raw data as well as analyzed results can be electronically transferred to the investigators. Support is also available for additional image analysis such as intermodality coregistration, 3D rendering, and group statistics. Additional software packages include MedX, SPM, Brainvoyager, Analyze, and in-house developed software.

http://www.nesys.uio.no/Micro3D/

The Micro3D 2004 is a software for 3-D reconstruction, visualization, and analysis of neuronal populations and brain regions. Micro3D generates geometric models from line and point coded data sets, representing labeled objects such as cell bodies or axonal plexuses, and boundaries of brain regions in serial sections. Data are typically imported from image-combining computerized microscopy systems, such as Neurolucida (MicroBrightField, Colchester, VT). The models may be rotated and zoomed in real-time. Surfaces are re-synthesized on the basis of stacks of contour lines. Clipping is used for defining section-independent subdivisions of the model. Flattening of sheets of points in curved layers (e.g., neurons in a cortical lamina) facilitates inspection of complicated distribution patterns. Micro3D computes color-coded density maps, and allows production of mpeg videos. Micro3D 2004 runs on LINUX PCs equipped with Open Inventor. It performs operations similar to the Silicon Graphics based version that has been used in more than 25 investigations and in various species, ranging from insects to monkeys, at the LM- and EM-level. Sponsors:Micro 3D was developed with support from The Research Council of Norway and The Oslo Research Park / FORNY.

Matlab toolbox that makes it easy to apply decoding analyses to neural data. The design of the toolbox revolves around four abstract object classes which enables users to interchange particular modules in order to try different analyses while keeping the rest of the processing stream intact. The toolbox is capable of analyzing data from many different types of recording modalities, and examples are given on how it can be used to decode basic visual information from neural spiking activity and how it can be used to examine how invariant the activity of a neural population is to stimulus transformations.

International biobank storing whole blood and DNA from 200,000 individuals, serum and plasma samples from more than 100,000 individuals as well as urine, RNA tubes, cells, buffy coat and Na-heparin tubes for environmental analysis for as many as 50,000 individuals. All bio-specimens from the HUNT surveys are collected, processed and stored at the HUNT Biobank in Levanger. The National CONOR Biobank is located on the same site, where it serves as a central research repository for DNA samples from all the largest Norwegian health surveys. These make up the Cohorts of Norway (CONOR), which include samples from more than 200,000 individuals. * HUNT 1 was carried out in 1984-1986 to establish the health history of 75,000 people. * HUNT 2, carried out in 1995-1997, focused on the evolution of the health history of 74,000 people. This included blood sample collection from 65,000 people. The data that accompany biospecimens in the biobank are stored in secured computer systems that run complex database management and analysis software. * HUNT 3 was completed in June 2008. 93,210 people were invited to participate in the study, and as of the 6th of June, 2008, 48,289 people participated (52% participation rate). The data, collected by means of questionnaires, interviews, clinical examinations and collection of blood and urine samples, will be ready for analysis in January 2009. * Young-HUNT is the adolescent part of HUNT including participants aged 13-19 years. Young-HUNT1 (1995-97) was conducted as part of HUNT2, 9141 adolescents participated (90% response rate). Young-HUNT2 (2000-01) was a follow-up study of Young-HUNT1, 2400 students participated in both studies (77% of the invited). Young-HUNT3 (2006-08) was a new cross-sectional study as part of HUNT3. This time 8677 adolescents participated (87% response rate). Data collection included self-reported questionnaires, structured interviews, clinical measurements and, in Young-HUNT3, buccal smears. All institutions with research expertise can apply for access to analyze HUNT data. Projects must have recommendations from The Regional Committee for Medical Research in Norway (REK) and be registered with The Norwegian Social Science Data Services (NSD).
