Portal touching on all aspects of neuroscience from molecules to the mind, from the laboratory bench to the patient's bedside. Members study the normal structure and workings of the nervous system, its development, its cognitive functions, its derangement by disease and injury, and the means of its repair and protection. Projects span traditional disciplinary boundaries, as do graduate and postdoctoral training programs. Its major achievement has been to foster and improve multidisciplinary collaborations which has increasingly permitted the identification of pathogenic mechanisms and the formulation of new therapeutic approaches.

A mini-collection of human gait data that was constructed as a teaching resource for an intensive course (The Modern Science of Human Aging, conducted at MIT) that includes walking stride interval time series from 15 subjects: 5 healthy young adults (23 - 29 years old), 5 healthy old adults (71 - 77 years old), and 5 older adults (60 - 77 years old) with Parkinson's disease. For each subject, two columns of data are included. The first column is time (in seconds) and the second is the stride interval (variously known as stride time, gait cycle duration, and time between successive heel strikes of the same foot). The same data are also available as standard PhysioBank-format annotation (.str) and header (.hea) files, for viewing or analysis using PhysioToolkit software from this site. Subjects walked continuously on level ground around an obstacle-free path. The stride interval was measured using ultra-thin, force sensitive resistors placed inside the shoe. The analog force signal was sampled at 300 Hz with a 12 bit A/D converter, using an ambulatory, ankle-worn microcomputer that also recorded the data. Subsequently, the time between foot-strikes was automatically computed. The method for determining the stride interval is a modification of a previously validated method that has been shown to agree with force-platform measures, a gold standard. Data were collected from the healthy subjects as they walked in a roughly circular path for 15 minutes, and from the subjects with Parkinson's disease as they walked for 6 minutes up and down a long hallway.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. An autopsy-based, research-devoted brain bank, biobank and biospecimen bank that derives its human donors from the Arizona Study of Aging and Neurodegenerative Disease (AZSAND), a longitudinal clinicopathological study of the health and diseases of elderly volunteers living in Maricopa county and metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona. Their function is studied during life and their organs and tissue after death. To date, they have concentrated their studies on Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, heart disease and cancer. They share the banked tissue, biomaterials and biospecimens with qualified researchers worldwide. Registrants with suitable scientific credentials will be allowed access to a database of available tissue linked to relevant clinical information, and will allow tissue requests to be initiated.

The Brain Bank was developed with two service-minded objectives: provide a free brain autopsy to confirm clinical diagnosis of dementia, and collect, bank and provide brain tissue to qualified scientific researchers studying diseases related to dementia. By working together, patients and researchers can help us understand the origins of neurodegenerative disease and eventually improve the treatment and care of dementia. The clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease can only be confirmed by brain autopsy, or the examination of brain tissue after death. This examination will determine a patients's precise type of dementia. To confirm the diagnosis of Alzheimer's, for example, the brain tissue is examined for amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles by a neuropathologist. The presence of these plaques and tangles will verify the clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. While it is important to us to enroll patients with dementia, it is equally important to enroll people with no dementia. These subjects are termed as controls and the brain tissue from controls will enable researchers to make comparisons to brain tissue from dementia patients. We are seeking donations from individuals who have had an age-related neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Lewy Body or other related dementia.

Organization that drives the development of disease-modifying treatments against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Diabetes and other protein misfolding disorders through two independently managed business units: * Contract Research: The in-vivo Contract Research Organization (CRO) helps its clients to assess the pharmacokinetics and -dynamics of their experimental treatments against Alzheimer's disease. The main focus is on efficacy testing of candidate drugs in reMYND's proprietary Alzheimer mouse models expressing the clinical APP-London allele as single transgene or in combination with clinical alleles of human PS1 and TAU. * Drug Discovery: The Drug Discovery and Development Unit (DDD) focuses on disease-modifying treatments against protein-misfolding disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (tau), Parkinson's disease (-synuclein), and Diabetes. In addition, reMYND grants licenses and markets commercial kits of RadarScreen, a technology for rapid and cost-effective identification of genotoxic liabilities in early stage drug discovery. reMYND has been substantially supported by grants from IWT and from The Michael J Fox Foundation.

A for-profit health data-sharing platform that can transform the way patients manage their conditions, change the way industry conducts research and improve patient care. PatientsLikeMe aligns patient and industry interests through data-sharing partnerships. They work with trusted nonprofit, research and industry Partners who use this health data to improve products, services and care for patients. They take the information patients share about their experience with the disease and sell it to their partners (i.e., companies that are developing or selling products to patients). These products may include drugs, devices, equipment, insurance, and medical services. Except for the restricted personal information entered when registering for the site, participants should expect that every piece of information submitted (even if it is not currently displayed) may be shared with their partners and any member of PatientsLikeMe, including other patients. They do not rent, sell or share personally identifiable information for marketing purposes or without explicit consent. Because they believe in transparency, they tell members exactly what they do and do not do with their data. Patients have the opportunity to share both personal stories and health data about their conditions to help uncover great ideas and new knowledge. By sharing information on the site, they can put their disease experiences in context and find answers to the questions they have. Every partnership we develop must bring them closer to aligning patient and industry interests. Their end goal is improved patient care and quality of life.
