Collects, stores, and distributes samples of nervous tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, blood, and other tissue from HIV-infected individuals. The NNTC mission is to bolster research on the effects of HIV infection on human brain by providing high-quality, well-characterized tissue samples from patients who died with HIV, and for whom comprehensive neuromedical and neuropsychiatric data were gathered antemortem. Researchers can request tissues from patients who have been characterized by: * degree of neurobehavioral impairment * neurological and other clinical diagnoses * history of drug use * antiretroviral treatments * blood and CSF viral load * neuropathological diagnosis The NNTC encourages external researchers to submit tissue requests for ancillary studies. The Specimen Query Tool is a web-based utility that allows researchers to quickly sort and identify appropriate NNTC specimens to support their research projects. The results generated by the tool reflect the inventory at a previous time. Actual availability at the local repositories may vary as specimens are added or distributed to other investigators.

A multi-center and multi-disciplinary study designed to dramatically increase understanding of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and other late effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Overlapping clinical features, postmortem pathologies and patterns of involvement exist in TBI, CTE, and Alzheimer''s disease pose challenges to accurate diagnosis. Premortem diagnosis of CTE is currently impossible. The neuropathological consequences of single mild or moderate-severe TBI and its relationship with CTE and known dementias are unclear. The proposed project will leverage extensive resources from an ongoing population-based prospective cohort study of brain aging (Adult Changes in Thought; ACT, n=2,305) which includes excellent medical, behavioral, and genetic characterization of a cohort (20% of whom have a history of mild-moderate TBI) in addition to state-of-the-art neuropathology workup upon death. Neuropathological study of TBI effects can begin immediately in the existing ACT autopsy sample (n=489, 20% with TBI exposure). Additional cohorts of TBI- exposed individuals will come from the Brain Injury Research Center at Mount Sinai (n=150 individuals with moderate-severe TBI), the University of Texas Southwestern (n=50 retired boxers with repetitive TBI exposure), and the National Football League (n=76 retired players with repetitive TBI exposure). All participants in the proposed study (ACT and other sites) will undergo uniform harmonized neurobehavioral assessment (chosen to maximize correspondence with existing large-scale TBI and dementia studies), MRI scan, and genomic analysis. Those individuals who expire during the course of the study will undergo ex-vivo neuroimaging and extensive neuropathological exam using state-of-the-art techniques (such as Histelide) designed to quantify tau and A�� in whole brain specimens. Only by examining postmortem pathology in a sample of individuals with varying levels of TBI exposure who are well characterized during life (as proposed herein) can postmortem pathology facilitate identification of in-vivo biomarkers that can act as diagnostic tools. This project represents the most systematic and scientifically rigorous effort to date to develop a more complete understanding of the long-term clinical and neuropathological sequelae of single and multiple TBI.

A fast, scalable tool developed at the Johns Hopkins University to automatically segment the major anatomical fiber tracts within the human brain from clinical quality diffusion tensor MR imaging. With an atlas-based Markov Random Field representation, DOTS directly estimates the tract probabilities, bypassing tractography and associated issues. Overlapping and crossing fibers are modeled and DOTS can also handle white matter lesions. DOTS is released as a plug-in for the MIPAV software package and as a module for the JIST pipeline environment. They are therefore cross-platform and compatible with a wide variety of file formats.

A unique resource and comprehensive imaging facility combining the latest state-of-the-art digital medical imaging technologies for the characterization of mouse functional genomics. The goals of the Mouse Imaging Centre are: * To provide a variety of medical imaging technologies adapted to studying genetically modified mice. These technologies include magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, micro computed tomography (micro-CT), ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), and optical projection tomography (OPT). * To screen large numbers of mice for models of human diseases. * To image an individual mouse over time to observe development, disease progression and responses to experimental treatment. * To develop an exciting team of investigators with expertise in imaging techniques, computer science, engineering, imaging processing, developmental biology and mouse pathology. * To work by collaboration with researchers throughout the world. When we look for human diseases in the human population, we make extensive use of medical imaging. Therefore, it makes sense to have available the same imaging capabilities as we investigate mice for models of human disease. The Mouse Imaging Centre (MICe) has developed high field magnetic resonance imaging microscopy, ultrasound biomicroscopy, micro computed tomography, and optical techniques. With these imaging tools, MICe is screening randomly mutagenized mice to look for phenotypes that represent human diseases and is taking established human disease models in mice and using imaging to follow the progression of disease and response to treatment over time. It is clear that imaging has a major contribution to make to phenotyping genetic variants and to characterizing mouse models. MICe is staffed by an exciting new team of about 30 investigators with expertise in imaging techniques, computer science, engineering, imaging processing, developmental biology and mouse pathology. The Mouse Imaging Centre (MICe) is not a fee-for-service facility but works through collaborations. Services include: * Projects involving MicroCT are available as a fee for service. * We will eventually move to the same model above with MRI. * Ultrasound Biomicroscopy is used for cardiac, embryo and cancer studies and is available as fee for service at $100 per study or in some cases on a collaborative basis. * Optical Projection Tomography has only limited availability on a collaborative basis. Mouse Atlas As our images are inherently three-dimensional, we will be able to make quantitative measures of size and volume. With this in mind, we are developing a mouse atlas showing the normal deviation of organ sizes. This atlas is an important resource for biologists as it has the potential to eliminate the need to sacrifice as many controls when making comparisons with mutants. Mouse Atlas Examples: * Variational Mouse Brain Atlas * Cerebral Vascular Atlas of the CBA Mouse * Neuroanatomy Atlas of the C57Bl/6j Mouse * Vascular Atlas of the Developing Mouse Embryo * Micro-CT E15.5 Mouse Embryo Atlas
