A new volume rendering program developed by the NIH/NCRR Center for Integrative Biomedical Computing (CIBC). The main design goals of ImageVis3D are: simplicity, scalability, and interactivity. Simplicity is achieved with a new user interface that gives an unprecedented level of flexibility (as shown in the images). Scalability and interactivity for ImageVis3D mean that both on a notebook computer as well as on a high end graphics workstation, the user can interactively explore terabyte sized data sets. Finally, the open source nature as well as the strict component-by-component design allow developers not only to extend ImageVis3D itself but also reuse parts of it, such as the rendering core. This rendering core, for instance, is planned to replace the volume rendering subsystems in many applications at the SCI Institute and with their collaborators.

https://open.med.harvard.edu/display/SHRINE/Community

Software providing a scalable query and aggregation mechanism that enables federated queries across many independently operated patient databases. This platform enables clinical researchers to solve the problem of identifying sufficient numbers of patients to include in their studies by querying across distributed hospital electronic medical record systems. Through the use of a federated network protocol, SHRINE allows investigators to see limited data about patients meeting their study criteria without compromising patient privacy. This software should greatly enable population-based research, assessment of potential clinical trials cohorts, and hypothesis formation for followup study by combining the EHR assets across the hospital system. In order to obtain the maximum number of cases representing the study population, it is useful to aggregate patient facts across as many sites as possible. Cutting across institutional boundaries necessitates that each hospital IRB remain in control, and that their local authority is recognized for each and every request for patient data. The independence, ownership, and legal responsibilities of hospitals predetermines a decentralized technical approach, such as a federated query over locally controlled databases. The application comes with the SHRINE Core Ontology but it can be used with any ontology, even one that is disease specific. The Core Ontology is designed to enable the widest range of studies possible using facts gathered in the EMR during routine patient care. SHRINE allows multiple ontologies to be used for different research purposes on the same installed systems.

http://www.wakehealth.edu/Research/WFUPC/Cynomolgus-Breeding-Colony-Request-Form-Instructions.htm

The Wake Forest Cynomolgus Breeding Colony (CBC) is a colony of cynomolgus macaques (crab-eating macaques, Macaca fascicularis). The cynomolgus colony is designed to produce specific pathogen free (SPF) cynomolgus monkeys for use in biomedical research. The colony, supported by a grant from the NCRR, addresses the growing need for investigators to use in their protocols animals defined for the absence of specific diseases including CHV-1 (Herpes B), simian immunodeficiency virus, and simian retroviruses. An additional important characteristic of this colony is that, unlike many breeding colonies, the NHPs will be fed two defined diets. The first diet is a soy-free diet, not commercial monkey chow. The second diet has the same macronutrients but the protein source is from soy; similar in isoflavone content. A drawback of chow diets is that the exact nutritional product composition is unknown from lot to lot. However, they are always rich in soy bean meal, isoflavones and other constituents of soy bean meal that are known confounders of several types of research projects. All research using the cynomolgus colony must be reviewed and approved by the colony''s scientific board and the Wake Forest Animal Care and Use Committee (ACUC) before any work can be initiated. The scientific board meets regularly to assess the scientific value of each request and to determine whether or not animals/samples/data can be made available. This includes all requests for: # The purchase of animals for use outside the colony # The use of animals within the colony for the collection of blood/tissue samples, behavioral observations or other kinds of testing # The use of the CBC sample/tissue repository # The use of the CBC data repository

Software that facilitates accurate extraction of text from PDF files of research articles for use in text mining applications. It is intended for both scientists and natural language processing (NLP) engineers interested in getting access to text within specific sections of research articles. The system extracts text blocks from PDF-formatted full-text research articles and classifies them into logical units based on rules that characterize specific sections. The LA-PDFText system focuses only on the textual content of the research articles. The current version of LA-PDFText is a baseline system that extracts text using a three-stage process: * identification of blocks of contiguous text * classification of these blocks into rhetorical categories * extraction of the text from blocks grouped section-wise.

In cooperation with the Data and Clinical Cores at the Layton Center, the Biomarkers and Genetics Core generates and maintains biomarker data for select biomarkers which have established roles in the characterization of subjects with or at risk of dementia. Biological markers of brain aging, dementia risk, and neurodegeneration have the potential to accelerate the identification of disease mechanisms and treatment strategies. Biomarkers may include genes, proteins, or other metabolites, and may be identified in DNA, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), or plasma. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype is generated for all research subjects. Sub-groups of subjects have other types of biomarker data. Many subjects have had genome-wide SNP data generated. In order to foster collaborative research as well as expand resources and expertise, samples (DNA, CSF, and plasma) and data are distributed to qualified investigators worldwide. Most of these researchers are pursuing the causes and modifiers of dementia. Data and samples are collected from well characterized research subjects including the healthy elderly and dementia patients.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on December 6th,2022. The Oregon Alzheimer?s Disease Center?s (OADC) Clinical Core program, directed by Dr. Jeffrey Kaye, performs longitudinal studies of the natural history of brain aging and Alzheimer''s disease in patients and healthy control volunteers. These studies which are performed through standardized neurological, neuro-psychological, and brain-imaging assessments are carried out in the Alzheimer''s Disease and Memory Assessment Clinics as well as through community-based assessments conducted in the homes of study volunteers. The Layton Center Neuroimaging Lab conducts brain-imaging MRI brain scans to assist in diagnosis of brain disease. Typically, MRI images are taken from three different planes. These planes are known as the coronal plane, sagittal plane and the axial plane. Each series of MRI images is named after the plane from which they were obtained. The Clinical Core?s research is focused on preclinical and early Alzheimer?s disease (AD) yet is also poised to participate in other relevant new research as it arises. The OADC Clinical Core recruits, assesses and follows individuals from population groups at high risk for dementia such as: the healthy ?oldest old?, subjects with family history of AD, and subjects with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Research with underserved populations The Oregon Alzheimer?s Disease Center also maintains two Satellite programs to enhance understanding of underserved populations: The Klamath Exceptional Aging Project (KEAP) is a community-based study of brain aging being conducted in Klamath Falls. The African American Dementia and Aging Project (AADAPt) s a Portland-based cohort of 100 African American seniors.
