Human Genome Epidemiology Network, or HuGENet, is a global collaboration of individuals and organizations committed to the assessment of the impact of human genome variation on population health and how genetic information can be used to improve health and prevent disease. Its goals include: establishing an information exchange that promotes global collaboration in developing peer-reviewed information on the relationship between human genomic variation and health and on the quality of genetic tests for screening and prevention; providing training and technical assistance to researchers and practitioners interested in assessing the role of human genomic variation on population health and how such information can be used in practice; developing an updated and accessible knowledge base on the World Wide Web; and promoting the use of this knowledge base by health care providers, researchers, industry, government, and the public for making decisions involving the use of genetic information for disease prevention and health promotion. HuGENet collaborators come from multiple disciplines such as epidemiology, genetics, clinical medicine, policy, public health, education, and biomedical sciences. Currently, there are 4 HuGENet Coordinating Centers for the implementation of HuGENet activities: CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics, Atlanta, Georgia; HuGENet UK Coordinating Center, Cambridge, UK; University of Ioannina, Greece; University of Ottawa , Ottawa, Canada. HuGENet includes: HuGE e-Journal Club: The HuGE e-Journal Club is an electronic discussion forum where new human genome epidemiologic (HuGE) findings, published in the scientific literature in the CDC''s Office of Public Health Genomics Weekly Update, will be abstracted, summarized, presented, and discussed via a newly created HuGENet listserv. HuGE Reviews: A HuGE Review identifies human genetic variations at one or more loci, and describes what is known about the frequency of these variants in different populations, identifies diseases that these variants are associated with and summarizes the magnitude of risks and associated risk factors, and evaluates associated genetic tests. Reviews point to gaps in existing epidemiologic and clinical knowledge, thus stimulating further research in these areas. HuGE Fact Sheets: HuGE Fact Sheets summarize information about a particular gene, its variants, and associated diseases. HuGE Case Studies: An on-line presentation designed to sharpen your epidemiological skills and enhance your knowledge on genomic variation and human diseases. Its purpose is to train health professionals in the practical application of human genome epidemiology (HuGE), which translates gene discoveries to disease prevention by integrating population-based data on gene-disease relationships and interventions. Students will acquire conceptual and practical tools for critically evaluating the growing scientific literature in specific disease areas. HUGENet Publications: Articles related to the HuGENet movement written by our HuGENet collaborators. HuGE Navigator: An integrated, searchable knowledge base of genetic associations and human genome epidemiology, including information on population prevalence of genetic variants, gene-disease associations, gene-gene and gene- environment interactions, and evaluation of genetic tests. HuGE Workshops: HuGENet has sponsored meetings and workshops with national and international partners since 2001. Available are detailed summaries, agendas or the ability to download speaker slides. HuGE Book: Human Genome Epidemiology: A Scientific Foundation for Using Genetic Information to Improve Health and Prevent Disease. (The findings and conclusions in this book are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the funding agency.)

The purpose of this center is to study the molecular, cellular, systems and cognitive mechanisms that result in cognitive enhancements and explain unusual levels of performance in gifted individuals, including extraordinary creativity. Additionally, by understating the mechanisms responsible for enhancements in performance we may be better suited to intervene and reverse disease states that result in cognitive deficits. One of the key topics addressed by the Center is the biological basis of cognitive enhancements, a topic that can be studied in human subjects and animal models. In the past much of the focus in the brain sciences has been on the study of brain mechanisms that degrade cognitive performance (for example, on mutations or other lesions that cause cognitive deficits). The Tennenbaum Center for the Biology of Creativity at UCLA enables an interdisciplinary team of leading scientists to advance knowledge about the biological bases of creativity. Starting with a pilot project program, a series of investigations was launched, spanning disciplines from basic molecular biology to cognitive neuroscience. Because the concept of creativity is multifaceted, initial efforts targeted refinement of the component processes necessary to generate novel, useful cognitive products. The identified core cognitive processes: 1.) Novelty Generation the ability to flexibly and adaptively generate products that are unique; 2.) Working Memory and Declarative Memory the ability to maintain, and then use relevant information to guide goal-directed performance, along with the capacity to store and retrieve this information; and 3.) Response Inhibition the ability to suppress habitual plans and substitute alternate actions in line with changing problem-solving demands. To study the basic mechanisms underlying these complex brain functions we use translational strategies. Starting from foundational studies in basic neuroscience, we forged an interdisciplinary strategy that permits the most advanced techniques for genetic manipulation and basic neurobiological research to be applied in close collaboration with human studies that converge on the same core cognitive processes. Our integrated research program aims to reveal the genetic architecture and fundamental brain mechanisms underlying creative cognition. The work holds enormous promise for both enhancing healthy cognitive performance and designing new treatments for diverse cognitive disorders. Sponsors: The Tennenbaum Center for the Biology of Creativity was inspired by the vision and generosity of Michael Tennenbaum.

High-resolution atlas template of the human cerebellum and brainstem, based on the anatomy of 20 young healthy individuals. The atlas is spatially unbiased, i.e. the location of each structure is equal to the expected location of that structure across individuals in MNI space. At the same time, the new template preserves the anatomical detail of cerebellar structures through a nonlinear atlas-generation algorithm. By using automated nonlinear normalization methods, a more accurate intersubject-alignment than current whole-brain methods can be achieved. The toolbox allows you to: * Automatically isolate cerebellar structures from the cerebral cortex based on an anatomical image * Achieve accurate anatomical normalization of cerebellar structures * Normalize functional imaging data for fMRI group analysis * Normalize focal cerebellar lesions for lesion-symptom mapping * Use Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) to determine patterns of cerebellar degeneration or growth * Use a probabilisitc atlas in SUIT space to assign locations to different cerebellar lobuli in an unbiased and informed way * Automatically define ROIs for specific cerebellar lobuli and summarize function and anatomical data * Improve normalization of the deep cerebellar nuclei using an ROI-driven normalization. The suit-toolbox requires Matlab (Version 6.5 and higher) and SPM. The newest version only supports SPM8, although it likely runs under SPM2 or 5 as well. A standalone version for the suit-toolbox is not planned. Usage of the isolation or normalization functions, however, does not require that the analysis is conducted under SPM.
