Repository of knockout mice that have been extensively characterized. For each mouse line, the contractors will provide not only the mouse line itself, but also detailed, objective data on the impact of the specific gene deletion on the mouse''s phenotype, which includes appearance, health, fitness, behavior, ability to reproduce, and radiological and microscopic data. Such comprehensive information on such a large group of mice has never been available to public sector researchers, and is expected to greatly accelerate efforts to explore gene functions in health and disease. This resource will give researchers unprecedented access to two private collections of knockout mice, providing valuable models for the study of human disease and laying the groundwork for a public, genome-wide library of knockout mice. The contracts also provide for the opportunity for NIH to obtain up to 1500 additional mouse lines and phenotypic data over the next three years, pending available funds. The new contracts provide NIH with irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licenses to use and distribute to academic and non-profit researchers these lines of knockout mice. The mouse lines, which will be stored in the form of frozen embryos, frozen sperm and frozen embryonic stem (ES) cells, will be delivered to NIH-funded mouse repositories that supply mice to universities, medical schools and research labs all over the world. When researchers express interest in obtaining a certain knockout mouse line, the repositories will send them live mice, frozen embryos, sperm, and/or ES cells, so they can study the mice in their own labs. All data on the mice will be made available to researchers worldwide without restriction in publicly available databases on the Web. This resource will be available for a nominal fee which will be used to cover the cost of handling, shipping and replenishing the stock. Under the license agreements with Deltagen and Lexicon, researchers who receive the knockout mice lines through NIH are free to publish any results from research involving the line and also to seek patent or other intellectual property protection for any of the inventions or discoveries resulting from such research.

The Current Population Survey (CPS) is a monthly survey of about 50,000 households conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics for more than 50 years. It provides a comprehensive body of data on the labor force, employment, unemployment, and persons not in the labor force. The CPS is the primary source of information on the labor force characteristics of the U.S. population. The sample is scientifically selected to represent the civilian noninstitutional population. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of the household 15 years of age and older. However, published data focus on those ages 16 and over. The sample provides estimates for the nation as a whole and serves as part of model-based estimates for individual states and other geographic areas. Estimates obtained from the CPS include employment, unemployment, earnings, hours of work, and other indicators. They are available by a variety of demographic characteristics including age, sex, race, marital status, and educational attainment. They are also available by occupation, industry, and class of worker. Supplemental questions to produce estimates on a variety of topics including school enrollment, income, previous work experience, health, employee benefits, and work schedules are also often added to the regular CPS questionnaire. CPS data are used by government policymakers and legislators as important indicators of our nations economic situation and for planning and evaluating many government programs. They are also used by the press, students, academics, and the general public.

The Power Atlas is a web-based resource to assist investigators in the planning and design of microarray and expression based experiments. This software is currently aimed at estimating the power and sample size for a two group comparison based upon pilot data. The methods underlying the web site are reported in Gadbury et al (2004) and the software is described in further detail at Page et al (2006). There are two ways to use the Power Atlas: 1. We have downloaded the datasets currently in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and processed each of them with our power analysis software. Investigators may search among the datasets for the experiment that most closely resembles their proposed project and get sample size and power estimates. 2. Investigators may upload their own preliminary data and the program will extrapolate power from this dataset.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on April 26, 2011. Information for depositors Investigators who are willing to share mice with the PD research community through this resource should send an email to PDMice_at_ninds.nih.gov describing the mouse. The submission will be reviewed by the PD Models Repository Oversight Committee and, if accepted, a copy of the MTA will be sent by return email. NINDS is most interested in distributing mice that have been characterized in a peer-reviewed publication, but other models will certainly be considered. The email should describe the following: The protocol for identification from tail DNA. The health report of the mice to be shipped (the report has to be less than 2 months old). Information about the strain and any special needs for care and breeding. Information about any publications involving the mice Certification that mice are not encumbered by continuing intellectual property or other rights to any research, data or discovery utilizing the animals. Information for consumers Investigators desiring to study the mice available through the repository should send a request via email to PDMice_at_ninds.nih.gov. Requests will be reviewed by the PD Models Repository Oversight Committee and priority will be determined on a first come, first served basis; two breeding pairs will typically be shipped to any single requester. As detailed in the MTA, mice are not available for commercial research, including but not limited to drug screening. Neither the creator nor UCLA have a role in the governance of the Repository, and specifically, cannot impose conditions upon availability or distribution. It is anticipated that until the Repository is in a mode of steady state production, requests will be collected and mice distributed as supply allows. The email requesting mice should include: A brief description of the protocol Either a copy of the IACUC approval letter or numberNINDS/UCLA Repository for Parkinson's Disease Mouse Models: One of the most immediate and important benefits of discoveries regarding the genetic or environmental causes of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the subsequent development of animal models wherein therapeutic and/or preventative interventions may be studied. The widespread availability of such models is critically important to making progress against a disorder that affects more than 500,000 Americans at any given time. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) fully recognizes the burden placed on investigators by the financial and logistical realities of distributing high demand research resources. Some investigators have deposited their mice with national distribution facilities but many mouse models are not available through such resources. Developing means to facilitate greater sharing of mouse models of PD is one of the goals developed by the PD research community at the July 2002 summit meeting convened by the NIH Director. Accordingly, as part of the effort to accelerate PD research, NINDS and the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) created a resource that will distribute transgenic mouse models of human PD that are not yet available through national commercial resources. Investigators who are willing to share mice with the PD research community can simply arrange with NINDS to have the mice deposited at UCLA and investigators desiring to study the mice may arrange with NINDS to obtain two breeding pairs. The process will use Material Transfer Agreements created specifically for this arrangement.

Produce new neurological mouse models that could serve as experimental models for the exploration of basic neurobiological mechanisms and diseases. The impetus for the program resulted from the recognition that: * The value of genomic data would remain limited unless more information about the functionality of its individual components became available. * The task of linking genes to specific behavior would best be accomplished by employing a combination of different approaches. In an effort to complement already existing programs, the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility decided to use: a random, genome-wide approach to mutagenesis, i.e.N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) as the mutagen; a three-generation back-cross breeding scheme to focus on the detection of recessive mutations; behavioral screens selective for the detection of phenotypes deemed useful for the program goals. The resulting mutant mouse lines have been available to the scientific community for the last five years and over 700 NMF mice have been sent to interested investigators for research; these mutant mouse lines will remain available as frozen embryos (which can be re-derived on request) and can be ordered through the JAX customer service at 1-800-422-6423 (or 207-288-5845). The results of the work of the Neuroscience Mutagenesis Facility and that of two other neurogenesis centers, i.e. The Neurogenomics Project at Northwestern University, and the Neuromutagenesis Project of the Tennessee Mouse Genome Consortium, can also be seen at Neuromice.org, a common web site of these three research centers; in addition, information about all mutants produced by these groups has been recorded in MGI.

An interdisciplinary group of scientists and clinicians who study the human brain using a variety of imaging, recording, and computational techniques. Their primary goal is to bridge non-invasive imaging technologies to the underlying neurophysiology of brain neuronal circuits for a better understanding of healthy human brain function, and mechanisms of disruption of this function in diseases such as Alzheimer's, epilepsy and stroke. The other goal of the MMIL is to develop and apply advanced imaging techniques to understanding the human brain and its disorders. In order to ground these methodological developments in their underlying neurobiology, invasive studies in humans and animals involving optical and micro physiological measures are also performed. These methodologies are applied to understanding normal function in sleep, memory and language, development and aging, and diseases such as dementia, epilepsy and autism.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on May 16, 2016. The establishment of open access literature makes it possible for knowledge to be extracted from scholarly articles and included in other resources. BioLit aims to extract database identifiers and rich meta-data from open access articles in the life sciences and integrate that information with existing biological databases. We have begun prototyping this effort using a clone of the RCSB Protein Data Bank, a database of macromolecular structures. Cyberinfrastructure is integral to all aspects of conducting experimental research and distributing those results. However, it has yet to make a similar impact on the way we communicate that information. Peer-reviewed publications have long been the currency of scientific research as they are the fundamental unit through which scientists communicate with and evaluate each other. However, in striking contrast to the data, publications have yet to benefit from the opportunities offered by cyberinfrastructure. While the means of distributing publications has vastly improved, publishers have done little else to capitalize on the electronic medium. In particular, semantic information describing the content of these publications is sorely lacking, as is the integration of this information with data in public repositories. This is confounding considering that many basic tools for marking-up and integrating publication content in this manner already exist, such as a centralized literature database, relevant ontologies, and machine-readable document standards. We believe that the research community is ripe for a revolution in scientific communication and that the current generation of scientists will be the one to push it forward. These scientists, generally graduate students and new post-docs and have grown up with cyberinfrastructure as a part of their daily lives, not just a specialized aspect of their profession. They have a natural ability to do science in an electronic environment without the need for printed publications or static documents and, in fact, can feel quite limited by the traditional format of a publication. Perhaps most importantly, they appreciate that the sheer amount of data and the number of publications is prohibitive to the traditional methods of keeping current with the literature.

Dr. Eric Turner''s laboratory studies the mechanisms underlying the development of the nervous system. The vertebrate brain is comprised of a tremendous variety of neurons, each class exhibiting a unique phenotype characterized by the expression of specific neurotransmitter receptors, ion channels, patterns of axonal growth, and synapse formation. The research we conduct focuses on the critical role transcription factors play in the specification of neuronal cell type during development. We are particularly interested in transcription factors of the homeodomain family that bind to DNA and in doing so activate or repress gene expression. One area of study is the role of POU-domain transciption factor Brn3a in axon growth and survival. The primary research areas are: * Neuronal cell fate determination: The expression of regulatory genes is manipulated in living chick embryos using microsurgery and electroporation and the effects on neural marker genes studied. * Molecular mechanisms of gene regulation: Target DNA binding sites of neural transcription factors are biochemically characterized and findings coordinated with sequence data from the mouse and human genomes. * Targeted misexpression of regulatory genes: Transgenic and knockout mouse technology is used to misexpress genes of interest, and the effects on neural marker genes, axonal growth, and cell survival studied. * Global analysis of neural gene expression: Micro-arrays (GeneChips) are employed in conjunction with other areas of study to understand the coordinated regulation of gene expression in the nervous system. Dr. Turner is a member of the University of California, San Diego''s Graduate Program in Neuroscience and Biomedical Sciences Program and accepts students from these two programs. Interesting rotation projects are available using methods ranging from biochemistry and molecular biology to embryology. Additionally, Dr. Turner is also the Director of this NIMH-funded training program for research-oriented psychiatrists, psychologists, and basic neuroscientists working in areas relevant to psychiatry. Typically Fellows spend two years in the program, during which they develop a research project under the close supervision of one of the highly productive members of the UCSD Department of Psychiatry, or another investigator in the La Jolla (UCSD/Salk/Scripps) research community.
