Group of 10 academic laboratories provide pancreatic islets of cGMP-quality to eligible investigators for use in FDA approved, IRB-approved transplantation protocols in which isolated human islets are transplanted into qualified patients afflicted with type 1 diabetes mellitus; optimize the harvest, purification, function, storage, and shipment of islets while developing tests that characterize the quality and predict the effectiveness of islets transplanted into patients with diabetes mellitus; and provide pancreatic islets for basic science studies. The centers are electronically linked through an Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC). The ABCC manages a system with objectively defined criteria that establishes the order of priority for islet distribution. It also provides database and other informatics to track the utilization of pancreata and all distributed clinical grade islets for transplant and basic research, and supports the Islet Cell Resource Centers Consortium so that the research community has a single entry point to the program. Qualified researchers from domestic institutions may request islets by submitting a written application to the director of the ABCC. The ICRs will distribute Islets as appropriate for either clinical or basic science protocol use to eligible investigators who have received a favorable review and subsequent approval by the ICR Steering Committee (SC). The Administrative and Bioinformatics Coordinating Center (ABCC) manages the distribution according to a priority list. The ABCC will give preference to investigators who have peer-reviewed, NIH-funded research support.

Biomedical technology research center that focuses on development of unique magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and spectroscopy methodologies and instrumentation for the acquisition of structural, functional, and biochemical information non-invasively in humans, and utilizing this capability to investigate organ function in health and disease. The distinctive feature of this resource is the emphasis on ultrahigh magnetic fields (7 Tesla and above), which was pioneered by this BTRC. This emphasis is based on the premise that there exists significant advantages to extracting biomedical information using ultrahigh magnetic fields, provided difficulties encountered by working at high frequencies corresponding to such high field strengths can be overcome by methodological and engineering solutions. This BTRC is home to some of the most advanced MR instrumentation in the world, complemented by human resources that provide unique expertise in imaging physics, engineering, and signal processing. No single group of scientists can successfully carry out all aspects of this type of interdisciplinary biomedical research; by bringing together these multi-disciplinary capabilities in a synergistic fashion, facilitating these interdisciplinary interactions, and providing adequate and centralized support for them under a central umbrella, this BTRC amplifies the contributions of each of these groups of scientists to basic and clinical biomedical research. Collectively, the approaches and instrumentation developed in this BTRC constitute some of the most important tools used today to study system level organ function and physiology in humans for basic and translational research, and are increasingly applied world-wide. CMRR Faculty conducts research in a variety of areas including: * High field functional brain mapping in humans; methodological developments, mechanistic studies, and neuroscience applications * Metabolism, bioenergetics, and perfusion studies of human pathological states (tumors, obesity, diabetes, hepatic encephalopathy, cystic fibrosis, and psychiatric disorders) * Cardiac bioenergetics under normal and pathological conditions * Automated magnetic field shimming methods that are critical for spectroscopy and ultrafast imaging at high magnetic fields * Development of high field magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy techniques for anatomic, physiologic, metabolic, and functional studies in humans and animal models * Radiofrequency (RF) pulse design based on adiabatic principles * Development of magnetic resonance hardware for high fields (e.g. RF coils, pre-amplifiers, digital receivers, phased arrays, etc.) * Development of software for data analysis and display for functional brain mapping.

http://nac.spl.harvard.edu/

Biomedical Technology Resource Center that develops image processing and analysis techniques for basic and clinical neurosciences. The NAC research approach emphasizes both specific core technologies and collaborative application projects. The core activity of the center is the development of algorithms and techniques for postprocessing of imaging data. New segmentation techniques aid identification of brain structures and disease. Registration methods are used for relating image data to specific patient anatomy or one set of images to another. Visualization tools allow the display of complex anatomical and quantitative information. High-performance computing hardware and associated software techniques further accelerate algorithms and methods. Digital anatomy atlases are developed for the support of both interactive and algorithmic computational tools. Although the emphasis of the NAC is on the dissemination of concepts and techniques, specific elements of the core software technologies have been made available to outside researchers or the community at large. The NAC's core technologies serve the following major collaborative projects: Alzheimer's disease and the aging brain, morphometric measures in schizophrenia and schizotypal disorder, quantitative analysis of multiple sclerosis, and interactive image-based planning and guidance in neurosurgery. One or more NAC researchers have been designated as responsible for each of the core technologies and the collaborative projects.
