Database of Drosophila genetic and genomic information with information about stock collections and fly genetic tools. Gene Ontology (GO) terms are used to describe three attributes of wild-type gene products: their molecular function, the biological processes in which they play a role, and their subcellular location. Additionally, FlyBase accepts data submissions. FlyBase can be searched for genes, alleles, aberrations and other genetic objects, phenotypes, sequences, stocks, images and movies, controlled terms, and Drosophila researchers using the tools available from the "Tools" drop-down menu in the Navigation bar.

Blog about the interests of the Department of Systems Biology at Harvard Medical School. They use tools from physics, mathematics and computer science to help us better understand the behavior of biological systems, large and small. Jobs and postdoc positions are available under the corresponding categories. Interests: * Methods for quantitative measurement, and for data analysis. Although much is said about the flood of new data in biology, nearly every time you want to understand a biological system at a mathematical or mechanical level you find that the numbers you need most are missing. Measuring and extracting the parameters that describe key features of the system is a major interest. * Theoretical and computational methods that can cope with the special features of biological systems. Issues such as combinatorial complexity, stochasticity, and variation from individual to individual and tissue to tissue are hard to deal with using conventional tools. * Philosophies of modeling. How do we represent what we know about the system what level of abstraction is appropriate for a given question, what is important and what can be ignored? What are models useful for? * Evolution. One of the more useful tools to identify what''s important is evolution a comparison across species helps to show what is allowed to change and what is not. * Synthetic biology. If I understand it, can I build it? (And in any case, can I build useful stuff?) They will post thoughts about recent papers in the literature that they find interesting, news about the Department, and information about Department Alumni. Please check back frequently, and feel free to comment.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on April 24, 2012. (no longer being funded) The NIH Microarray Consortium provides for-fee services to a community of NIH grantees, together with a more limited set of services to the public. The primary goal of this consortium is to move basic and translational research forward through acquisition and dissemination of high quality genomic data. This site includes a repository of microarray data sets and offers one-click links to public projects. These datasets were generated by various researchers on these platforms: Affymetrix, Agilent, Ambion, cDNA, Illumina, and Operon. The species currently covered are: Arabidopsis, Bovine, chicken, C. Elegans, Drosophila, Human, Macaca mulatta (Rhesus macaque), Mouse, Rat, Songbird, Xenopus, Yeast, and zebra finch. Basic search functions allows users to choose multiple options for finding the projects that interest them, and raw data files can also be downloaded after user registration. Web-based data analysis tools are also available. Scientists can analyze microarray data from the consortium repository or investigators can upload outside data for analysis.

Platform for large-scale, automated synthesis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data extracted from published articles. It''s a website wrapped around a set of open-source Python and JavaScript packages. Neurosynth lets you run crude but useful analyses of fMRI data on a very large scale. You can: * Interactively visualize the results of over 3,000 term-based meta-analyses * Select specific locations in the human brain and view associated terms * Browse through the nearly 10,000 studies in the database Their ultimate goal is to enable dynamic real-time analysis, so that you''ll be able to select foci, tables, or entire studies for analysis and run a full-blown meta-analysis without leaving your browser. You''ll also be able to do things like upload entirely new images and obtain probabilistic estimates of the cognitive states most likely to be associated with the image.

Database and web interface developed to store, update and distribute genome sequence data and gene expression data. ASAP was designed to facilitate ongoing community annotation of genomes and to grow with genome projects as they move from the preliminary data stage through post-sequencing functional analysis. The ASAP database includes multiple genome sequences at various stages of analysis, and gene expression data from preliminary experiments. Use of some of this preliminary data is conditional, and it is the users responsibility to read the data release policy and to verify that any use of specific data obtained through ASAP is consistent with this policy. There are four main routes to viewing the information in ASAP: # a summary page, # a form to query the genome annotations, # a form to query strain collections, and # a form to query the experimental data. Navigational buttons appear on every page allowing users to jump to any of these four points., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.
