This portal takes you to the website of Professor Anne Chao of the National Tsing Hua University, China. She studies birds. The portal offers Software, course information, publications and teaching. There are about 458 bird species in Taiwan. We have observed 155 species in our neighboring Ker-Yar estuary. We would estimate the total number of species in this area to be 180 including those unobserved. The more we discover about birds, the more we realize how intimately and closely our lives are entwined with those of birds. When the habitats of birds are destroyed and birds become extinct, we human beings are losing the land....

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.

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.

The REasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) project, sponsored by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is a national study focusing on learning more about the factors that increase a person''s risk of having a stroke. REGARDS is an observational study of risk factors for stroke in adults 45 years or older. 30,239 participants were recruited between January 2003 and October 2007. They completed a telephone interview followed by an in-home physical exam. Measurements included traditional risk factors such as blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and an echocardiogram of the heart. At six month intervals, participants are contacted by phone to ask about stroke symptoms, hospitalizations and general health status. The study is ongoing and will follow participants for many years. The purpose of the REGARDS project is to understand why people in some parts of the country develop more strokes than people in other parts of the country, and why blacks develop more strokes than whites. We hope to learn how to reduce the number of people having strokes.

Bone Marrow Donors Worldwide (BMDW) is the continuing effort to collect the HLA phenotypes of volunteer stem cell donors and cord blood units, and is responsible for the co-ordination of their worldwide distribution. Participants are 63 stem cell donor registries from 44 countries, and 43 cord blood banks from 25 countries. The current number of donors and cord blood units in the BMDW database is: 14,605,618 (14,178,976 donors and 426,642 CBU''s The original goal to collect the HLA phenotypes of volunteer stem cell donors and cord blood units, and to co-ordinate their world-wide distribution remain their primary goals. But new initiatives have been added: - To maximise the chance of finding a stem cell donor or cord blood unit by providing access to all stem cell donors and cord blood units available in the world. - To minimise the effort required for stem cell donor or cord blood unit searches: only registries with potential stem cell donors or cord blood units need to be contacted. - To provide an estimate of the chance of finding a stem cell donor or cord blood unit for a given patient. - To provide advanced search programs to identify partially matched stem cell donors or cord blood units. - To facilitate search advice requests via the Internet. - To facilitate improvements in family search strategies. - To provide relevant general information for the benefit of the patient. - To provide statistics on the increase of different registries, the number of DNA typed donors, etc. Sponsors: Bone Marrow Donors Worldwide is an initiative of the Immunobiology Working Party of the European Group of Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) in 1988.

For more than 75 years, the division of biology has provided many of the major research advances that have made biology the premier science of the 21st century, and has trained many of the world''s most eminent biologists. The division at present has 38 professors of various ranks, who in their classes and laboratories have approximately 100 undergraduates, 100 graduate students, and 160 postdoctoral scholars, as well as more than 250 staff members. We occupy parts or all of seven buildings on the Caltech campus; we also operate a marine laboratory 50 miles from campus. Each building is devoted to state-of-the-art educational facilities and cutting-edge laboratories. We have three major research emphases: Structural, Molecular and Cell Biology; Developmental and Regulatory Biology; and Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Neuroscience. In each area we are trying to solve one of the great problems of modern biology: How do the proteins and other components of cells interact to provide a marvelous nanomachine of more than 100,000 integrated parts, a machine that has numerous extraordinary functions and can reproduce itself? How does a single cell become, by division and formation of new cell types, an entire multicellular organism, which in the case of humans has thousands of different cell types and more than 1 trillion different cells in specific places, communicating to form complex organs? How does the brain, the most complex organ of all, work to allow calculations beyond those of any computer, as well as to demonstrate amazing sensory capabilities, emotions, and consciousness?

Welcome to the Bayesian Analysis of Common NMR Problems software home page. This Bayesian analysis software is a series of programs with a Java interface that use Bayesian probability theory to solve common data analysis problems that occur in the sciences and in NMR in particular. Click here for a complete list of the applications addressed. The programs that run the various Bayesian analysis, the server software, were developed at Washington University by Dr. G. Larry Bretthorst and the Java language client interface was developed by Dr. Karen Marutyan. The combination of the server and client software is called the Bayesian Analysis of Common NMR Problems software. However, this name is slightly misleading because this software can analyze data from many different sources, not just NMR data. Additionally, unlike the previous interface to this software, this new interface does not require the user to have access to any specialized NMR software, i.e., this interface is completely independent of Varian''s VnmrJ, although the interface can load and process data from a Varian spectrometer. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the Washington University in St. Louis. Keywords: Analysis, Software, Java, Theory, Science, NMR, Server, Data, Spectrometer,
