Offer high-throughput analysis of tissue histology and protein expression for the biogerontology research community. Each array is a 4 micron section that includes tissue cores from multiple tissues at multiple ages on one slide. The arrays are made from ethanol-fixed tissue and can be used for all techniques for which conventional tissue sections can be used. Ages are chosen to span the life from young adult to very old age. (available ages: 4, 12, 18, 24 and 28 months of age) Images of H&E stained punches are available for Liver, Cardiac Muscle, and Brain. The NIA aged rodent tissue arrays were developed with assistance from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Tissue Array Research Program (TARP), led by Dr. Stephen Hewitt, Director. NCI TARP contains more information on tissue array construction, protocols for using arrays, and references. Preparation and Product Description Tissue arrays are prepared in parallel from different sets of animals so that experiments can be conducted in duplicate, with each array using unique animals with a unique product number. The product descriptions page describes each array, including: * Strain * Gender * Ages * Tissues * Animal Identification Numbers

The establishment of the Neuroscience Center at Dartmouth (NCD) in 2002 has produced a new and unique interdisciplinary group whose mission is to foster collaborative and interactive research and education in the neurosciences. Training opportunities in neuroscience include undergraduate minor/major in Neuroscience, graduate training toward a Ph.D., and postdoctoral training. The NCD draws from the strengths in three key areas: Clinical, Cognitive & Behavioral, and Molecular/Cellular/Systems Neuroscience. It is the vision of its researchers to produce and disseminate new knowledge, and in doing so train and educate the next generation of neuroscientists. Interactions among members of the neuroscience community are enhanced and foster a highly interactive atmosphere through the development of this integrated Center. By promoting multidisciplinary efforts in both basic and applied research, the Center''s scientists will contribute to human health and well being by increasing our understanding of the mechanisms underlying nervous system function, both in health and disease. This will lead to valuable discoveries that translate into novel pharmaceutical agents and therapeutic approaches for the treatment of a variety of central nervous system diseases and disorders. The research facilities are located in Hanover, NH, Lebanon, NH (Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center) and the Veteran Affairs Medical Center in White River Junction, Vt. Research interests comprise a broad range of studies within the neurosciences and provide a wide range of research opportunities for students. In addition, the NCD augments the education of residents and fellow at the clinical level who have academic neuroscience interests.

Microtomy is a standard technique used for 2D microscopy, but it can also provide the foundation for 3D analysis using AutoAligner. AutoAligner reads a stack of serial sections and automatically aligns the single images, building up a 3D space that can be explored using Imaris. Each image is aligned in translation and rotation relative to its precursor image in the sequence. In addition to a fully automated mode, AutoAligner also provides manual control for neighboring images that are too different from each other for automatic alignment. The visual alignment tool uses fast display techniques for aligning images in real time.
