THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on January 19, 2022.The mission of the Human Antibody Initiative (HAI) aims to promote and facilitate the use of antibodies for proteomics research. The initiative consists of two separate activities; (1) the generation of a catalogue of validated antibodies from many different sources and (2) a protein atlas for the expression and localization of human proteins in normal and disease tissue. The two separate activities have as their primary deliverables to generate databases with free public accessibility. The Antibody Resource database (www.antibodypedia.org) is aimed to produce a comprehensive catalogue of validated antibodies towards human proteins. This initiative depends on input from a large number of academic groups and commercial companies. The Protein Atlas initiative (www.proteinatlas.org) is aimed to provide comprehensive and annotated database of high-resolution images showing tissue profiles in normal and cancer tissues. Both databases will be open to the public without restriction (no passwords).

National Brain Tumor Society (NBTS) is a nonprofit organization committed to finding a cure for brain tumors. We aggressively drive strategic research, advocate for public policies that meet the critical needs of the brain tumor community, and provide patient information. Headquartered in Watertown, Massachusetts, with offices in San Francisco, California and Wilmington, Delaware, we host activities throughout the United States. Formed in 2008 by the merger of two leading organizations that had served the brain tumor community, the National Brain Tumor Foundation and the Brain Tumor Society, the National Brain Tumor Society is now the largest brain tumor nonprofit organization in the country. Both legacy organizations had been formed in the 1980s by parents and other people who were committed to increasing both research funding and access to resources specific to brain tumors. In 2010, the Kelly Heinz-Grundner Foundation, a Delaware-based organization, joined NBTS as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Founded in 2005, after the death of Kelly Heinz-Grundner to a brain tumor, the group has contributed to NBTS''s efforts to pursue research and public policies that benefit the brain tumor community. NBTS grant programs are effective for academic researchers, inclusive of industry expertise, and promising for the patient community. All funding is open to both the domestic and international research communities. The Innovation Research Grant Program supports catalytic transformative projects that will significantly move the field forward. These may include out-of-the-box projects or research that is critical to move therapies down the pipeline. Research that represents an incremental advance is not considered innovative. NBTS will accept Innovation Letters of Intent throughout the year. Researchers in academic or industry labs and at all stages of their career may be funded through this program.

The mission of the Florida Brain Tumor Association (FBTA) is to provide hope, support and education to brain tumor survivors, their families and friends; to conquer brain tumors by funding research into their causes and cures; and to enrich the quality of life of those touched by brain tumors. In October, 1991, the Florida Brain Tumor Association (formerly South Florida Brain Tumor Association) began due to a desperate need from brain tumor survivors and families who were searching for support and a safe place to share their life changing experiences. Beginning in Boca Raton, Florida, as a grass roots organization and a handful of people, the first support group was conceived. Today, there are many additional FBTA support groups, from coast to coast in the state of Florida. The Florida Brain Tumor Association (FBTA) has become a major force in the brain tumor community. We host many fundraisers yearly, donating funds for research to brain tumor centers. The FBTA has hosted over 20 three day conferences, seminars and meetings, attracting thousands of survivors, families and health care professionals in the United States and Canada. Many of the most renowned physicians in the world travel from far and near to present at FBTA conferences. We are proud and grateful for their commitment and dedication to our cause. The FBTA is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is supported by contributions from individuals, corporations, and foundations. We are the only organization of this kind, relying on the strength and dedication of our members, who are brain tumor survivors, family members and friends.

An interactive, visual database containing more than 350 small molecule pathways found in humans. More than 2/3 of these pathways (>280) are not found in any other pathway database. SMPDB is designed specifically to support pathway elucidation and pathway discovery in metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and systems biology. It is able to do so, in part, by providing exquisitely detailed, fully searchable, hyperlinked diagrams of human metabolic pathways, metabolic disease pathways, metabolite signaling pathways and drug-action pathways. All SMPDB pathways include information on the relevant organs, subcellular compartments, protein cofactors, protein locations, metabolite locations, chemical structures and protein quaternary structures. Each small molecule is hyperlinked to detailed descriptions contained in the HMDB or DrugBank and each protein or enzyme complex is hyperlinked to UniProt. All SMPDB pathways are accompanied with detailed descriptions and references, providing an overview of the pathway, condition or processes depicted in each diagram. The database is easily browsed and supports full text, sequence and chemical structure searching. Users may query SMPDB with lists of metabolite names, drug names, genes / protein names, SwissProt IDs, GenBank IDs, Affymetrix IDs or Agilent microarray IDs. These queries will produce lists of matching pathways and highlight the matching molecules on each of the pathway diagrams. Gene, metabolite and protein concentration data can also be visualized through SMPDB''s mapping interface. All of SMPDB''s images, image maps, descriptions and tables are downloadable.

The Anxiety Disorders Association of America (ADAA) is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to the prevention, treatment, and cure of anxiety disorders and to improving the lives of all people who suffer from them. It is the leader in education, training, and research for anxiety and stress-related disorders. ADAA leads the way, improving the lives of millions of people: * Promotes professional and public awareness of anxiety and related disorders and their impact on people''s lives. * Encourages the advancement of scientific knowledge about causes and treatment of anxiety and related disorders. * Links people who need treatment with the health care professionals who provide it. * Helps people find appropriate treatment and develop self-help skills. * Works to reduce the stigma surrounding anxiety and related disorders. ADAA was founded in 1980 as the Phobia Society of America by a diverse group of clinicians and patients. The term anxiety disorder had not yet been coined. Most anxiety disorders were simply called phobias. That changed as researchers discovered links between panic attacks and abnormal blood flow in the brain, learned that anxiety disorders are associated with pervasive social and health consequences, and discovered and tested various therapies and medications to treat anxiety disorders. ADAA adopted its new name in 1990 to reflect the changing and growing field. Over the years ADAA has launched several national educational campaigns to promote awareness about anxiety disorders and encourage people to seek treatment. ADAA has also funded more than $1.5 million in anxiety disorder research. Today ADAA continues to be the voice for those affected by anxiety and anxiety-related disorders. The organization is frequently cited by the media and also provides information and treatment referrals to tens of thousands each year by phone, e-mail, and through this website.

The purpose of the NINDS Common Data Elements (CDEs) Project is to standardize the collection of investigational data in order to facilitate comparison of results across studies and more effectively aggregate information into significant metadata results. The goal of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) CDE Project specifically is to develop data standards for clinical research within the neurological community. Central to this Project is the creation of common definitions and data sets so that information (data) is consistently captured and recorded across studies. To harmonize data collected from clinical studies, the NINDS Office of Clinical Research is spearheading the effort to develop CDEs in neuroscience. This Web site outlines these data standards and provides accompanying tools to help investigators and research teams collect and record standardized clinical data. The Institute still encourages creativity and uniqueness by allowing investigators to independently identify and add their own critical variables. The CDEs have been identified through review of the documentation of numerous studies funded by NINDS, review of the literature and regulatory requirements, and review of other Institute''s common data efforts. Other data standards such as those of the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC), the Clinical Data Acquisition Standards Harmonization (CDASH) Initiative, ClinicalTrials.gov, the NINDS Genetics Repository, and the NIH Roadmap efforts have also been followed to ensure that the NINDS CDEs are comprehensive and as compatible as possible with those standards. CDEs now available: * General (CDEs that cross diseases) Updated Feb. 2011! * Congenital Muscular Dystrophy * Epilepsy (Updated Sept 2011) * Friedreich''s Ataxia * Parkinson''s Disease * Spinal Cord Injury * Stroke * Traumatic Brain Injury CDEs in development: * Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Public review Sept 15 through Nov 15) * Frontotemporal Dementia * Headache * Huntington''s Disease * Multiple Sclerosis * Neuromuscular Diseases ** Adult and pediatric working groups are being finalized and these groups will focus on: Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy, Myasthenia Gravis, Myotonic Dystrophy, and Spinal Muscular Atrophy The following tools are available through this portal: * CDE Catalog - includes the universe of all CDEs. Users are able to search the full universe to isolate a subset of the CDEs (e.g., all stroke-specific CDEs, all pediatric epilepsy CDEs, etc.) and download details about those CDEs. * CRF Library - (a.k.a., Library of Case Report Form Modules and Guidelines) contains all the CRF Modules that have been created through the NINDS CDE Project as well as various guideline documents. Users are able to search the library to find CRF Modules and Guidelines of interest. * Form Builder - enables users to start the process of assembling a CRF or form by allowing them to choose the CDEs they would like to include on the form. This tool is intended to assist data managers and database developers to create data dictionaries for their study forms.

At neuroade, a Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory, we study change in brain and behavior across multiple time-scales. Researchers in the lab combine a variety of methodologies to answer specific questions about typical and atypical behavior and development. We use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), peripheral psychophysiology (such as skin conductance responses), behavioral testing, genotyping analysis, and computational modeling. Most of our work takes place at the Centre for Integrative Neuroscience and Neurodynamics (CINN), and we all live in the Department of Psychology at the University of Reading. Our research is divided into several distinct yet highly interlinked themes, all converging in their application to understanding psychopathology -- summarised here in no particular order: * Decision-making and the Evaluation of Decision Outcomes * Dimensions of Impulsivity as a Foraging Strategy * Adolescent Development * Computational Modeling Probes of Individual Differences
