The 16 affiliated Model System centers throughout the United States are responsible for gathering and submitting the core data set to the national database as well as conducting research studies on traumatic brain injury (TBI) both in collaboration with the other centers and within our own site. Through our research we hope to learn more about TBI and about the issues and concerns of people with TBI. Our goals are to improve the outcome and quality of life for people who have had brain injuries and for those who are caring for the person with a TBI. The North Texas Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (NT-TBIMS) pools the efforts and talents of individuals from the Departments of Neurosurgery, Neurology, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Psychiatry (Neuropsychiatry), and Neuroradiology of the two leading medical institutions in the North Texas region. To be a patient involved in the research being conducted by the North Texas Traumatic Brain Injury Model System you must have suffered a TBI, be at least 16 years of age, have received initial treatment for the TBI at either Parkland Health and Hospital System or Baylor University Medical Center and then have received rehabilitative care at either Parkland, University Hospital Zale-Lipshy, or Baylor Institute for Rehabilitation. The patient must also be able to understand and sign an informed consent to participate or, if unable, have a family member or a legal guardian who understands the form sign the informed consent for the patient.

The SCRM-CTBB offers state-of-the-art infrastructure and technologies (e.g. cryogenic work bench, semiautomatic cryogenic storage system, uninterrupted cooling chain) and is structured into two areas, including research and a GMP/GCP regulated therapeutic applications. Research: For pre-clinical studies, the SCRM-CTBB provides researchers guidance regarding cell and tissue cryo-preservation, comprising registration, handling, storage and distribution. In order to ensure complete traceability on samples and belonging information all processes are controlled by a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and Quality Assurance (QA) system. The SCRM Biobank is designed to create database that allows connection with other biobanks nationally and internationally. This meta-data file will enable a unique scientific resource for interdisciplinary research. For every new study a contract is established describing the study and the disposition rights. Assistance in writing Biobank Agreements (BAs) and Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) is provided. Therapeutical applications: As a new feature, apart from research, the SCRM Biobank enables the asservation and preservation of cells and tissues under GMP conditions for later therapeutic use. A special focus will be on a conceptional combination of private and public umbilical cord blood banking (hybrid banking), which allows autologous and/or allogeneic cell applications.

As an umbrella organization for medical research networks, the TMF is responsible for improving the organization and infrastructure of medical research in networked structures. It supports researchers at the various locations in jointly identifying and solving problems of an organizational, legal and technical nature that are often not associated with the particular clinical problem or research focus. The network not only focuses on legal and ethical frameworks for networked medical research but also on the development of IT infrastructure, quality management activities for science-initiated trials and questions on the intermeshing of research and patient care. Under the umbrella organization of the TMF, expert opinions, studies, concepts, requirements specifications, services and tools are created. The products of the cooperation within the TMF are available to the research community. The aims of joint work in the TMF are: * Improvement of medical research in terms of quality, organization and cooperation * Solution of questions spanning networked medical research, e.g. on the collection, processing and exchange of research data * Clarification of the legal and ethical foundations for performing medical research * Issues of quality assurance and quality management * Development and extension of efficient IT infrastructures and their implementation in cross-institutional networked structures * Realization of cross-location solutions * Contributions to sustainable and efficient health research by means of the improved transfer of research findings to patient care

http://nimh-repository.rti.org/

A program that synthesizes, purifies, and distributes otherwise unavailable essential compounds to stimulate basic and clinical research in psychopharmacology relevant to mental health in areas such as the molecular pharmacology and signaling of CNS receptors, longitudinal studies to evaluate the molecular, biochemical, and behavioral actions of psychoactive compounds, and functional brain imaging in both primates and humans. WHAT IS AVAILABLE: * Ligands for CNS receptors, radiolabeled compounds for autoradiography and neuroimaging, biochemical markers, drug analogs and metabolites, and reference standards * Synthesis (including GMP) of promising compounds for mental health research, including preclinical toxicology and safety studies, especially compounds for PET neuroimaging * A listing of currently available NIMH CSDSP compounds is available online at www.nimh-repository.rti.org. RTI International scientists can provide investigators with technical assistance and additional information about the compounds on request. Data sheets containing purity, storage, and handling information are supplied with all NIMH CSDSP compounds. WHO IS ELIGIBLE: Investigators involved in basic or clinical research relevant to mental health are eligible to submit requests. To learn more about current NIMH research areas, please visit the NIMH website at www.nimh.nih.gov. NIMH CSDSP compounds are free to qualified academic investigators, but payment may be required from nonacademic requestors. Investigators interested in obtaining radiolabeled compounds but uncertain about what type of label or specific activity would work best for them may obtain help by communicating with the technical contacts listed on the website.

Data set of raw anatomical and functional MR data from 72 patients with Schizophrenia and 75 healthy controls (ages ranging from 18 to 65 in each group). All subjects were screened and excluded if they had: history of neurological disorder, history of mental retardation, history of severe head trauma with more than 5 minutes loss of consciousness, history of substance abuse or dependence within the last 12 months. Diagnostic information was collected using the Structured Clinical Interview used for DSM Disorders (SCID). A multi-echo MPRAGE (MEMPR) sequence was used with the following parameters: TR/TE/TI = 2530/(1.64, 3.5, 5.36, 7.22, 9.08)/900 ms, flip angle = 7��, FOV = 256x256 mm, Slab thickness = 176 mm, Matrix = 256x256x176, Voxel size =1x1x1 mm, Number of echos = 5, Pixel bandwidth =650 Hz, Total scan time = 6 min. With 5 echoes, the TR, TI and time to encode partitions for the MEMPR are similar to that of a conventional MPRAGE, resulting in similar GM/WM/CSF contrast. Rest data was collected with single-shot full k-space echo-planar imaging (EPI) with ramp sampling correction using the intercomissural line (AC-PC) as a reference (TR: 2 s, TE: 29 ms, matrix size: 64x64, 32 slices, voxel size: 3x3x4 mm3). Slice Acquisition Order: Rest scan - collected in the Axial plane - series ascending - multi slice mode - interleaved MPRAGE - collected in the Sag plane - series interleaved - multi slice mode - single shot The following data are released for every participant: * Resting fMRI * Anatomical MRI * Phenotypic data for every participant including: gender, age, handedness and diagnostic information.
