The mission of the Thompson Center is to improve the lives of individuals and families affected by autism and neurodevelopmental disorders through world class programs that integrate research, clinical service delivery, education and public policy. The Thompson Center''s vision is to become a recognized national center of excellence that serves as a model of interdisciplinary practice, research and training in the field of autism and neurodevelopmental disorders. At the MU Thompson Center, education and training activities are a key part of our mission. Our goal is to teach others about the needs of persons with autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders and their families. In addition, we strive to help learners acquire skills needed to improve the outcomes of individuals with developmental differences. These skills include evidence-based assessment and intervention strategies, interdisciplinary approaches to service delivery, research methods, and policy development. The Thompson Center offers a range of health, educational and behavioral services in one location for individuals with autism and other developmental concerns. Professionals from different disciplines strive to deliver family-centered care that is comprehensive and coordinated. Autism recently has been recognized as a national public health concern, and federal research funding in this area has increased substantially. Faculty members engage in research that will lead to early identification, treatment and ultimately prevention of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). How findings may eventually translate into improved outcomes in clinical and community settings is a primary goal of our research.

http://www.ensemblgenomes.org/

Database portal offering integrated access to genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species of scientific interest, developed using the Ensembl genome annotation and visualization platform. Ensembl Genomes consists of five sub-portals (for bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and invertebrate metazoa) designed to complement the availability of vertebrate genomes in Ensembl. Many of the databases supporting the portal have been built in close collaboration with the scientific community - essential for maintaining the accuracy and usefulness of the resource. A common set of user interfaces (which include a graphical genome browser, FTP, BLAST search, a query optimized data warehouse, programmatic access, and a Perl API) is provided for all domains. Data types incorporated include annotation of (protein and non-protein coding) genes, cross references to external resources, and high throughput experimental data (e.g. data from large scale studies of gene expression and polymorphism visualized in their genomic context). Additionally, extensive comparative analysis has been performed, both within defined clades and across the wider taxonomy, and sequence alignments and gene trees resulting from this can be accessed through the site.

Software that implements a probabilistic graphical model to analyze sequence data from tumor / normal pairs. The model draws statistical strength by analysing both genome jointly to more accurately classify germline and somatic mutations. It effectively reduces false positive somatic mutation predictions in tumour-normal pair sequencing data. It is highly recommended to post-process results with mutationSeq in order to filter technical artifacts.

https://cansar.icr.ac.uk/

canSAR is an integrated database that brings together biological, chemical, pharmacological (and eventually clinical) data. Its goal is to integrate this data and make it accessible to cancer research scientists from multiple disciplines, in order to help with hypothesis generation in cancer research and support translational research. This cancer research and drug discovery resource was developed to utilize the growing publicly available biological annotation, chemical screening, RNA interference screening, expression, amplification and 3D structural data. Scientists can, in a single place, rapidly identify biological annotation of a target, its structural characterization, expression levels and protein interaction data, as well as suitable cell lines for experiments, potential tool compounds and similarity to known drug targets. canSAR has, from the outset, been completely use-case driven which has dramatically influenced the design of the back-end and the functionality provided through the interfaces. The Web interface provides flexible, multipoint entry into canSAR. This allows easy access to the multidisciplinary data within, including target and compound synopses, bioactivity views and expert tools for chemogenomic, expression and protein interaction network data.

It is a collection of selected human-focused cellular pathways implicated in cancer that are linked to visualization and analysis tools. Biologists can browse and search the Cancer Cell Map pathways and view gene expression data on any pathway. All data is freely available. Computational biologists can download all pathways in BioPAX format for global analysis. Software developers can build software on top of the Cancer Cell Map using the web service API. Download and install the cPath pathway database software to create a local mirror of the Cancer Cell Map. Cancer Cell Map pathways were selected based on the scientific interests of research labs at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. Effort was made not to duplicate information in other public pathway databases. Available pathways include: Alpha6Beta4Integrin, AndrogenReceptor, EGFR1, Hedgehog, ID, KitReceptor, NOTCH, TGFBR, TNF alpha/NF-kB, Wnt. Each pathway has around 100-400 interactions.

Initiative which defines standards for the description and exchange of aggregations of Web resources. The intent of the effort is to develop standards that generalize across all web-based information including the increasing popular social networks of web 2.0. The goal of these standards is to expose the rich content in these aggregations (sometimes called compound digital objects, they may combine distributed resources with multiple media types including text, images, data, and video) to applications that support authoring, deposit, exchange, visualization, reuse, and preservation. The specific aim of the ORE effort is to promote (through creation or endorsement) effective and consistent mechanisms which: facilitate discovery of compound digital objects; reference (or link to) these objects (as well as parts thereof); obtain a variety of disseminations of these objects; aggregate and disaggregate objects; and enable processing of objects by automated agents.

The ASSC includes members working in the fields of cognitive science, medicine, neuroscience, philosophy, and other relevant disciplines in the sciences and humanities.
The ASSC web site has several main functions:
* coordinating annual conferences on aspects of the scientific study of consciousness.
* promotion of other activities in the field (smaller conferences, mailing lists, bibliographic resource, etc).
* facilitate consciousness research with awards for new investigators.
* publication of papers relevant to the scientific study of consciousness in the inter-disciplinary journal Psyche.
The ASSC Students community''s aim is to foster greater involvement of graduate students within the Association for the Scientific Study of Consciousness (ASSC) and improve ways in which the ASSC serves the needs of its student members. Its primary goal is to promote research and debate about consciousness among new researchers.
It organizes activities like the current essay contest, details of which are on the news page. It also manage the student pages of the ASSC website and conduct occasional surveys of the ASSC student members.
