Database of a set of standard 3D virtual models at different stages of development from Carnegie Stages (CS) 12-23 (approximately 26-56 days post conception) in which various anatomical regions have been defined with a set of anatomical terms at various stages of development (known as an ontology). Experimental data is captured and converted to digital format and then mapped to the appropriate 3D model. The ontology is used to define sites of gene expression using a set of standard descriptions and to link the expression data to an ''''anatomical tree''''. Human data from stages CS12 to CS23 can be submitted to the HUDSEN Gene Expression Database. The anatomy ontology currently being used is based on the Edinburgh Human Developmental Anatomy Database which encompasses all developing structures from CS1 to CS20 but is not detailed for developing brain structures. The ontology is being extended and refined (by Prof Luis Puelles, University of Murcia, Spain) and will be incorporated into the HUDSEN database as it is developed. Expression data is annotated using two methods to denote sites of expression in the embryo: spatial annotation and text annotation. Additionally, many aspects of the detection reagent and specimen are also annotated during this process (assignment of IDs, nucleotide sequences for probes etc). There are currently two main ways to search HUDSEN - using a gene/protein name or a named anatomical structure as the query term. The entire contents of the database can be browsed using the data browser. Results may be saved. The data in HUDSEN is generated from both from researchers within the HUDSEN project, and from the wider scientific community. The HUDSEN human gene expression spatial database is a collaboration between the Institute of Human Genetics in Newcastle, UK, and the MRC Human Genetics Unit in Edinburgh, UK, and was developed as part of the Electronic Atlas of the Developing Human Brain (EADHB) project (funded by the NIH Human Brain Project). The database is based on the Edinburgh Mouse Atlas gene expression database (EMAGE), and is designed to be an openly available resource to the research community holding gene expression patterns during early human development.

Mouse Party is an interactive website that teaches how various drugs disrupt the synapse by taking a look inside the brains of mice on drugs! Every drug of abuse has its own unique molecular mechanism. Where applicable, this presentation primarily depicts how drugs interact with dopamine neurotransmitters because this website focuses on the brain''s reward pathway. Mouse Party is designed to provide a small glimpse into the chemical interactions at the synaptic level that cause the drug user to feel ''high''. The simplified mechanisms of drug action presented here are just a small part of the story. When drugs enter the body they elicit very complex effects in many different regions of the brain. Often they interact with many different types of neurotransmitters and may bind with a variety of receptor types in a variety of different locations. For example, THC in marijuana can bind with cannabinoid receptors located on the presynaptic and/or postsynaptic cell in a synapse.

MATLAB toolbox for performing functional connectivity analyses includes many of the most commonly-used approaches researchers have utilized to date for the identification of condition-dependent functional interactions between fMRI time-series obtained from two or more brain regions. The approaches are either bivariate or multivariate methods defined in time or frequency domains that emphasize distinct features of relationships among the time-series.

http://users.loni.ucla.edu/~shattuck/brainsuite/

Suite of image analysis tools designed to process magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the human head. BrainSuite provides an automatic sequence to extract genus-zero cortical surface mesh models from the MRI. It also provides a set of viewing tools for exploring image and surface data. The latest release includes graphical user interface and command line versions of the tools. BrainSuite was specifically designed to guide its users through the process of cortical surface extraction. NITRC has written the software to require minimal user interaction and with the goal of completing the entire process of extracting a topologically spherical cortical surface from a raw MR volume within several minutes on a modern workstation. The individual components of BrainSuite may also be used for soft tissue, skull and scalp segmentation and for surface analysis and visualization. BrainSuite was written in Microsoft Visual C using the Microsoft Foundation Classes for its graphical user interface and the OpenGL library for rendering. BrainSuite runs under the Windows 2000 and Windows XP Professional operating systems. BrainSuite features include: * Sophisticated visualization tools, such as MRI visualization in 3 orthogonal views (either separately or in 3D view), and overlayed surface visualization of cortex, skull, and scalp * Cortical surface extraction, using a multi-stage user friendly approach. * Tools including brain surface extraction, bias field correction, voxel classification, cerebellum removal, and surface generation * Topological correction of cortical surfaces, which uses a graph-based approach to remove topological defects (handles and holes) and ensure a tessellation with spherical topology * Parameterization of generated cortical surfaces, minimizing a harmonic energy functional in the p-norm * Skull and scalp surface extraction
