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. | brain, tumor, brain tumor, cancer, human, grant, child, pediatric, research | nlx_143891 | SCR_004744 | 2026-08-04 09:41:12 | 8 | ||||||||||

UCSF Laboratory for Visual Neuroscience Resource Report Resource Website |
UCSF Laboratory for Visual Neuroscience (RRID:SCR_004913) | Laboratory for Visual Neuroscience | portal, video resource, laboratory portal, organization portal, image, data or information resource | Devise better ways to prevent and treat vision loss due to amblyopia and strabismus, and to advance medical science by understanding the human visual system. Various Images, Videos and Talks related to the research are available. In the Laboratory for Visual Neuroscience at the University of California, San Francisco, we are seeking to discover how visual perception occurs in the human brain. The function of the visual system is to guide our behavior by providing an efficient means for the rapid assimilation of information from the environment. As we navigate through our surroundings, a continuous stream of light images impinges on our eyes. In the back of each eye a light-sensitive tissue, the retina, converts patterns of light energy into electrical discharges known as action potentials. These signals are conveyed along the axons of retinal ganglion cells to the lateral geniculate body, a relay nucleus in the thalamus. Most of the output of the lateral geniculate body is relayed directly to the primary visual cortex (striate cortex, V1), and then to surrounding visual association areas. To understand the function of the visual pathways, our research is focused on 5 major themes: * Organization of Primary Visual Cortex * Mapping of Extrastriate Visual Cortex * Amblyopia and Visual Development * Strabismus and Visual Suppression * The Human Visual Cortex | amblyopia, strabismus, human, visual system, ophthalmology, monkey, eye, vision loss, patient, research, education, pediatric ophthalmology, neuro-ophthalmology, pediatric, primary visual cortex, vision |

CTSAconnect Resource Report Resource Website |
CTSAconnect (RRID:SCR_005225) | CTSAconnect | source code, software resource, controlled vocabulary, knowledge environment, narrative resource, standard specification, service resource, ontology, data or information resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IS SERVICE. Documented on December 5th, 2022. Semantic framework to integrate information about research activities, clinical activities, and scientific resources to facilitate the production and consumption of Linked Open Data about investigators, physicians, biomedical research resources, services, and clinical activities. The goal is to enable software to consume data from multiple sources and allow the broadest possible representation of researchers'''' and clinicians'''' activities and research products. Current research tracking and networking systems rely largely on publications, but clinical encounters, reagents, techniques, specimens, model organisms, etc., are equally valuable for representing expertise. CTSAConnect will provide linkage between semantic representations of a wide range of clinical and research data using controlled vocabularies mapped to the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) as a bridge between the two subject areas. The data sources include data from Medicaid, hospital billing systems, CTSAShareCenter, and other CTSA resource data, eagle-i and VIVO. It allows institutions to leverage existing tools and data sources by making the information they contain more discoverable and easier to integrate. For instance, with the ISF, researchers can be characterized by organizational affiliations, grant and project participation, research resources that they have generated, and publications that they have (co)-authored. Clinicians can be characterized by training and credentials, by clinical research topic, and by the kinds of procedures and specialization that can be inferred from encounter data. LOD refers to data that has been given a specific Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), for the purpose of sharing and linking data and information on the Semantic Web. While a large amount of data is published as LOD, there remains a significant gap in the representation of research resources and clinical expertise. Researchers can be characterized by the organization to which they belong, the grants and research in which they have participated, the research topics and research resources (reagents, biospecimens, animal models) they have generated, as well as the publications they have (co)-authored. Clinician profiles on the other hand, can be defined by their credentials, clinical research topics, and the kinds of procedures and specialization that can be inferred from clinical encounter data. They believe that integrating and relating this diversity of information sources and platforms requires addressing the overlap between research resources and the attributes and activities of researchers and clinicians. CTSAconnect aims to promote integration and discovery of research activities, resources, and clinical expertise. To this end, they will publish their ontologies and LOD via their website, which will also illustrate repeatable methods and examples of how to extract, consume, and utilize this valuable new LOD using freely available tools like VIVO, eagle-i, and Google APIs. CTSAconnect is a collaboration between Oregon Health & Science University, Stony Brook University, Cornell University, Harvard University, University at Buffalo, and the University of Florida, and leverages the work of eagle-i (eagle-i.net), VIVO (vivoweb.org), and ShareCenter (ctsasharecenter.org). | data sharing, clinical, research, semantic framework, linked open data, collaborate |

Cleveland Clinic Genomic Medicine Biorepository Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Cleveland Clinic Genomic Medicine Biorepository (RRID:SCR_004136) | GMB | biomaterial supply resource, material resource, tissue bank | A biorepository is a place where investigators can deposit and store biological material, in this case samples derived from patients. Moreover, the Genomic Medicine Institute (GMI) takes this basic concept and elevates it to make the Genomic Medicine Biorepository (GMB) a full-service processing and banking laboratory that serves as the foundation for evidence-based research for the GMI, the Cleveland Clinic, and our collaborators. The process relies on a team of multi-disciplinary professionals coordinating their efforts in order to streamline medical research. This begins with dedicated physicians and genetic counselors identifying individuals with specific medical conditions indicating the possibility of genetic involvement. Once identified, biological material (e.g. blood, tissue, or saliva) is collected under the care of the patient''s doctor or by our clinicians and sent to the GMB. Once in the lab, the patient and their samples are assigned a unique identifier (to protect the patient''s personal information) and logged into a central database. This unique identifier accompanies all samples processed and banked for that individual. The specimens are then processed into research-relevant samples using proven laboratory techniques and state-of-the-art quality control practices. These samples include the isolation of DNA and RNA from white blood cells for genetic studies; collection of plasma for proteomic studies; and initiated immortalized cell lines from lymphocytes for in-vitro studies and biochemical research. These cell lines are able to be indefinitely stored in cryogenic suspension and are invaluable as a renewable resource for genetic and biochemical research. The GMB also processes genetic material from various tissues (both fresh and archived). Charis Eng, MD, PhD, Chair and Director of the GMI, has been the faculty oversight person of a human biorepository for the last eight years. Since then, our biorepository has received, cataloged, processed, and banked, in excess of 25,000 specimens. These samples are of numerous tissue types from patients and their family members located all over the world. Our biorepository has managed samples that have resulted in more than 150 original peer reviewed articles and greater than $25 million total direct costs in extramural funding over the last four years alone. | blood, tissue, saliva, dna, rna, plasma, cell line, cryogenic suspension, patient, family member, research |
