Portal and tools for sharing and editing neurophysiological and behavioral data for brain-machine interface research. Users can search for existing data or login with their Google, Facebook, or Twitter account and upload new data. Their main focus is on supporting brain-machine interface research, so we encourage users to not just provide recordings of brain activity data, but also information about stimuli, etc., so that statistical relationships can be found between stimuli and/or subject behavior and brain activity. The Matlab tools are for writing, reading, and converting Neuroshare files, the common file format. A free, open source desktop tool for editing neurophysiological data for brain-machine interface research is also available: https://github.com/ATR-DNI/BrainLiner Since data formats aren''''t standardized between programs and researchers, data and analysis programs for data cannot be easily shared. Neuroshare was selected as the common file format. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data because of its high flexibility, including analog time-series data and neuronal spike timing. Some applications have plug-ins or libraries available that can read Neuroshare format files, thus making Neuroshare somewhat readily usable. Neuroshare can contain several types of neurophysiological data, but there were no easy tools to convert data into the Neuroshare format, so they made and are providing a Neuroshare Converter Library and Simple Converter using the library. In future work they will make and provide many more useful tools for data sharing. Shared experiments include: EMG signal, Takemiya Exp, Reconstruct (Visual image reconstruction from human brain activity using a combination of multi-scale local image decoders), SPIKE data, Speech Imagery Dataset (Single-trial classification of vowel speech imagery using common spatial patterns), Functional Multineuron Calcium Imaging (fMCI), Rock-paper-scissors (The data was obtained from subject while he make finger-form of rock/paper/scissors). They also have a page at https://www.facebook.com/brainliner where you can contact us

Association of physicians, scientists, academics, research institutes and self-help groups that provides and nurtures interdisciplinary cooperation between research and primary, secondary and tertiary health care. Many internationally renowned heart failure researchers and working groups live and work in Germany. Nevertheless, there is insufficient cooperation of the respective working groups and research projects in this area. In order to remain internationally competitive in the heart failure research community, excellent implementation of large scale clinical and genetic trials is indispensable. Further, deficits in the effective presentation and transfer of research findings into clinical practice need to be addressed. An adequate translation of guidelines into practical, tangible instructions can facilitate clinical practice both in primary and tertiary care fundamentally. The need for action to address the research-practice-gap is obvious.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 19,2024. Brain tissue donation is a valuable contribution to mental health research. It enables scientists to investigate how the normal brain works, and how the brain is disturbed when it is affected by schizophrenia, depression, bipolar (manic depressive) disease or other related disorders. The Department of Psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh has established a brain tissue bank to which brain tissue can be donated at no expense. The gift of brain tissue enables scientists to conduct research designed to understand causes, to develop new treatments, and ultimately to find cures for diseases that affect the brain. Brain tissue donation is a gift that makes it possible for researchers to study various types of mental disorders. Donations of brain tissue from individuals without these disorders are also needed to establish comparisons with brain samples from individuals who have these disorders. Any legally competent adult or guardian may indicate during life their interest in donating brain tissue after death. Next-of-kin either of healthy individuals or of those with psychiatric disorders may give consent to donate brain tissue following the death of a loved one. Brain tissue is removed during autopsy at a morgue or hospital and is transported to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for examination and study.

http://bmsr.usc.edu/software/pneuma/

A set of modules that are used to simulate the autoregulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems under conditions of changing sleep-wake state and a variety of physiological and pharmacological interventions. It models the dynamic interactions that take place among the various component mechanisms, including those involved in the chemical control of breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure, as well as the effects of changes in the sleep-wake state and arousal from sleep. PNEUMA includes the autonomic control of the cardiovascular system, chemoreflex and state-related control of breath-to-breath ventilation, state-related and chemoreflex control of upper airway potency, as well as respiratory and circulatory mechanics. The model is capable of simulating the cardiorespiratory responses to sleep onset, arousal, continuous positive airway pressure, the administration of inhaled carbon dioxide and oxygen, Valsalva and Mueller maneuvers, and Cheyne-Stokes respiration during sleep. In PNEUMA 3.0, we have extended the existing integrative model of respiratory, cardiovascular, and sleepwake state control, to incorporate a sub-model of glucoseinsulinfatty acid regulation. The extended model is capable of simulating the metabolic control of glucoseinsulin dynamics and its interactions with the autonomic nervous system. The interactions between autonomic and metabolic control include the circadian regulation of epinephrine secretion, epinephrine regulation on dynamic fluctuations in glucose and free fatty acids in plasma, metabolic coupling among tissues and organs mediated by insulin and epinephrine, as well as the effect of insulin on peripheral vascular sympathetic activity. This extended model represents a starting point from which further in silico investigations into the interaction between the autonomic nervous system and the metabolic control system can proceed. Features in PNEUMA 3.0 * Incorporates metabolic component based on prior models of glucose-insulin regulation and free fatty acid (FFA) regulation. * Changes in sympathetic activity from the autonomic portion of PNEUMA produce changes in epinephrine output, which in turn affects the metabolic sub-model. * Inputs from the dietary intake of glucose and external interventions, such as insulin injections, have also been incorporated. * Also incorporated is autonomic feedback from the metabolic component to the rest of PNEUMA: changes in insulin level lead to changes in sympathetic tone. System Requirements: PNEUMA requires Matlab R2007b or higher with the accompanying version of Simulink to be installed on your computer.

https://www.bioconductor.org/packages//2.12/bioc/html/dexus.html

Software package that identifies differentially expressed genes in RNA-Seq data under all possible study designs such as studies without replicates, without sample groups, and with unknown conditions. It works also for known conditions, for example for RNA-Seq data with two or multiple conditions. RNA-Seq read count data can be provided both by the S4 class Count Data Set and by read count matrices. Differentially expressed transcripts can be visualized by heatmaps, in which unknown conditions, replicates, and samples groups are also indicated. This software is fast since the core algorithm is written in C. For very large data sets, a parallel version of DEXUS is provided in this package. DEXUS is a statistical model that is selected in a Bayesian framework by an EM algorithm. It does not need replicates to detect differentially expressed transcripts, since the replicates (or conditions) are estimated by the EM method for each transcript. The method provides an informative/non-informative value to extract differentially expressed transcripts at a desired significance level or power.
