The FDA''s national strategy for transforming the way FDA-regulated products--human drugs, biological products, medical devices, veterinary drugs, foods, and cosmetics--are developed, evaluated, manufactured, and used. Specific key areas of focus identified by FDA experts and the public: * Developing better evaluation tools like biomarkers and new assays * Streamlining clinical trials by modernizing the clinical trial sciences to make trials safe and efficient * Harnessing bioinformatics (e.g., moving from a paper-based to electronic environment for exchanging information and overseeing the safety of FDA-regulated products) * Moving manufacturing into the 21st Century, using tools such as process analytic technology and nanotechnology * Developing products to address urgent public health needs, including, improved antimicrobial testing, new animal models to test bioterrorism countermeasures and vaccine testing * Focusing on at-risk populations, such as pediatrics

Dr. Lewis Coriell''s pioneering techniques for characterizing, freezing, and storing cell cultures in liquid nitrogen constitute one of the greatest contributions to modern human research. Today, the Coriell Biobank is regarded as the most diverse collection of cell lines and DNA available to the international research community. In addition to these high-quality biospecimens, Coriell also maintains tissue, plasma, serum, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. Few organizations have the history of innovations in repository science that have been developed and implemented at Coriell. For nearly 60 years, Coriell has set the standard in biobanking services, including the experimental design, collection, processing, distribution, cryogenic preservation, and information management of human biomaterials used in research. By developing and maintaining biorepositories as national and international resources for the study of human diseases, aging, and neurological disease, Coriell is committed to providing the scientific community with well-characterized, cell cultures and DNA preparations, annotated with rich phenotypic data. The Coriell Biobank has allowed both Coriell scientists, and research investigators around the world, to advance research programs in genetics and cell biology. Since the first repository ����?����������?? a National Institutes of Health collection ����?����������?? was established at Coriell in 1964, hundreds of thousands of cell lines and DNA samples have been distributed to researchers in 64 countries; more than 7,000 peer-reviewed papers have been published citing almost 12,000 biospecimens from the Coriell Biobank. Coriell''s repositories provided support to the Human Genome Project, a worldwide program to map the entire human genome, and to the International HapMap Project, a project providing an efficient tool to identify disease-causing genes. Coriell offers almost 60 years of experience in the banking, cryopreservation, and fail-safe storage of cell lines, DNA, and other biomaterials. The renowned Coriell biobank is ISO9001:2008 certified. Our highly-trained technicians, supported by on-staff scientists with expertise with genomics, provide proficient, individualized care for your biospecimens. From specimen collection, processing, quality control, enterprise level data, and inventory management, through rapid retrieval of specimens and secure shipment, Coriell offers full-service biorepository services.

Dataset of structural MR images of 70 subjects collected during 2008-2010 across a wide range of ages. The dataset also contains resting state fMRI for most subjects. The structural images are T1 weighted, T2 weighted-FLAIR, 25 direction DTI, and the T1 mapping DESPOT [1] sequence. Reconstructed T1 maps for each subject are also available. The aquisition protocol was designed to study structural differences between young and older adults including both shape and intensity changes. Anonymized DICOM image sessions and processed images for each subject are available. The data is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License. It may be used freely for commercial, academic, or other use, as long as the original source is properly cited. http://www.bsl.ece.vt.edu/index.php?page=ara-dataset

Stunning scientific discoveries have opened the possibilities for us to preserve our unaltered youth and healthy genome almost indefinitely. To do this, we propose to our clients to allow us to isolate and cryopreserve a small piece of tissue from their body in our unique tissue bank via a simple skin biopsy procedure. Our methods provide 100% assurance that the tissues we preserve will remain viable, healthy and young. We guarantee that these tissues will correspond to the age and physical status from the time when they were collected and can be preserved for many decades to come. In that way we strive to accomplish mankind''s most important dream ������?? to stop the hands of time and reduce the effects of aging. We will bring to a standstill the genetic program that is encoded in our cells that cause us to age and grow older. What is unique about this procedure, from a biological perspective, is that even as a person continues to live longer and get older, at the same time, part of his body remains invariably young. This well-preserved critical piece of tissue contains all the vitally important genetic material that harnesses the potential for invigorating one''s health. It will play an essential role in the rehabilitation and rejuvenation of human beings in the future. Recent studies have shown that certain parts of our skin are the most optimal material to be used for our program. For this purpose we utilize fibroblasts, the cells of the connective tissues located at the bottom side of our epidermis. In order to properly extract fibroblasts from our skin we have to perform a basic skin biopsy procedure. If you decide to participate in our program, StemCure will send to you the standard Tissue Collection Kit. This Kit contains detailed instructions for how your doctor should perform the biopsy procedure, as well as all the necessary components for the collection and transportation of a biopsy sample. StemCure will immediately start processing your biopsy samples once they arrive by overnight shipment to one of our laboratory facilities. We perform this very elaborate procedure because we understand perfectly well that our ultimate goal is not just the preservation of your tissue samples, but rather their subsequent utilization for the production of embryonic stem cells, which is the next stage of our program. Before subjecting the samples of your tissue to freezing, we will use the skin tissue to initiate the growth of the cell culture. After initial testing of the cell culture for viability and physiological activity, we will start its preparation for cyropreservation. StemCure will do everything in its power to ensure that the ������??Youth Genome������?? of our clients is safely protected and will remain a viable source for their healthy disease-free future.

A diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI) template constructed in the standard ICBM-152 space from 122 healthy adults. The template was built through incorporating the macroscopic anatomical information using high-resolution T1-weighted images and the microscopic structural information obtained from DSI datasets, rendering it to achieve a high anatomical matching to the ICBM-152 space. This template can serve as a representative DSI dataset for a healthy adult population. It is released in its original DWI format.
