IDbases are locus-specific databases for immunodeficiency-causing mutations. Our aim is to establish database for every immunodeficiency or provide links to those maintained elsewhere. IDbases contain in addition to gene mutation, also information about clinical presentation. Information has been collected from literature as well as received directly from researchers. It would be most glad if those analyzing mutations would send their information by using the interactive web submission available in each database. A number of articles have been published related to IDbases. IDbases are curated and distributed with proprietary MUTbase software suite.

An interesting and exhaustive explanation of how the technology works and is applied. It is an online book on principles and practice of magnetic resonance imaging. This educational package requires a hyper text markup language (HTML) 3.0 compatible browser, such as Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer, or Apple Safari. This type of browser allows the user to view frames. Three frames will be used in this package to simultaneously display text, graphics, and navigation aids. You are reading this in the text window. The graphics window is in the upper left hand corner of your screen. This window will be used to display animations, static figures, references, symbol definitions, and the glossary. The navigation window appears in the lower left corner of the screen and has one line of options. To experience the full potential of the frames, a screen capable of displaying at least 1024 by 768 pixels with 256 colors is recommended. You may be able to gain a few extra pixels in the vertical direction on your monitor by turning off the show toolbar, show location, and show directory buttons under options at the top of your browser. A computer mouse is necessary to access the contents of this package. The mouse allows you to move up and down in a frame by either moving the slider, or holding the mouse button down on the up or down arrows located at the right of the frame.

It provides image display, editing, delineation of structure boundaries, export of traced contours and generation of masked volumes. Images are displayed in 3 orthogonal views. Time series can be displayed as averaged or contrast images and time courses can be visualized graphically. Version 2 provides enhancements to the original MultiTracer feature set.

Passive and active source waveform data, event (earthquake) catalog, channel response data is available. This comprehensive data store of raw geophysical time-series data is collected from a large variety of sensors, courtesy of a vast array of US and International scientific networks, including seismometers (permanent and temporary), tilt and strain meters, infrasound, temperature, atmospheric pressure and gravimeters, to support basic research aimed at imaging the Earth's interior. IRIS also provides data and software for educational purposes. This consortium of over 100 US universities is dedicated to the operation of science facilities for the acquisition, management, and distribution of seismological data. IRIS programs contribute to scholarly research, education, earthquake hazard mitigation, and verification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. Data is stored at the IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle, Washington. They currently manage a large archive from over tens of thousands of seismic stations and ship hundreds of terabytes of data yearly.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/miva/

Software package that is a powerful graphical interface that displays, segments, aligns, manipulates, and blends image (pixel) and geometry (real-world coordinates) data simultaneously. Several applications are directly built into MIVA. Registration modes include interactive affine transformations. Fiducial registration tools facilitate rapid alignments for inter-modality volumes. Interactive Region of Interst (ROI) and Volume-of-Interest (VOI) tools exist to segment medical images. Virtually unique to MIVA are its 3D geometry tools and their compatibility with pixel based medical images. A full 3D interactive rat brain atlas is in an fMRI module which walks one through the necessary steps of fMRI. A multiple material surface routine takes segmented medical slices and creates 3D triangulated surfaces that align along all region boarders without overlap or gaps. These surfaces are the direct input into the MIVA tetrahedral mesh generator.

http://insulatordb.uthsc.edu/

A comprehensive collection of experimentally determined and computationally predicted CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) binding sites (CTCFBS) from the literature. The database is designed to facilitate the studies on insulators and their roles in demarcating functional genomic domains. The CTCFBS Prediction Tool allows users to scan sequences for the single best match to CTCF position weight matrices. Currently (March 2014), the database contains almost 15 million experimentally determined CTCF binding sites across several species. CTCF binding sites were collected from published papers containing CTCF binding sites identified using ChIPSeq or similar methods, data from the ENCODE project, and a set of approximately 100 manually curated binding sites identified by low-throughput experiments. Users can browse insulator sequence features, function annotations, genomic contexts including histone methylation profiles, flanking gene expression patterns and orthologous regions in other mammalian genomes. Users can also retrieve data by text search, sequence search and genomic range search.

Training material for the MS lesion segmentation challenge 2008 to compare different algorithms to segment the MS lesions from brain MRI scans. Data used for the workshop is composed of 54 brain MRI images and represents a range of patients and pathology which was acquired from Children's Hospital Boston and University of North Carolian. Data has initially been randomized into three groups: 20 training MRI images, 24 testing images for the qualifying and 8 for the onsite contest at the 2008 workshop. The downloadable online database consists now of the training images (including reference segmentations) and all the 32 combined testing images (without segmentations). The naming has not been changed in comparison to the workshop compeition in order to allow easy comparison between the workshop papers and the online database papers. One dataset has been removed (UNC_test1_Case02) due to considerable motion present only in its T2 image (without motion artifacts in T1 and FLAIR). Such a dataset unfairly penalizes methods that use T2 images versus methods that don't use the T2 image. Currently all cases have been segmented by expert raters at each institution. They have significant intersite variablility in segmentation. MS lesion MRI image data for this competition was acquired seperately by Children's Hospital Boston and University of North Carolina. UNC cases were acquired on Siemens 3T Allegra MRI scanner with slice thickness of 1mm and in-plane resolution of 0.5mm. To ease the segmentation process all data has been rigidly registered to a common reference frame and resliced to isotrophic voxel spacing using b-spline based interpolation. Pre-processed data is stored in NRRD format containing an ASCII readable header and a separate uncompressed raw image data file. This format is ITK compatible. If you want to join the competition, you can download data set from links here, and submit your segmentation results at http://www.ia.unc.edu/MSseg after registering your team. They require team name, password, and email address for future contact. Once experiment is completed, you can submit the segmentation data in a zip file format. Please refer submission page for uploading data format.
