http://cell.ccrc.uga.edu/world/glycomics/glycomics.php

Biomedical technology research center that develops and implements new technologies to investigate the glycome of cells, including glycoproteomics and glycoconjugate analysis, transcript analysis and bioinformatics. It develops the tools and technology to analyze in detail the glycoprotein and glycolipid expression of mouse embryonic stem cells and the cells into which they differentiate. The technology developed in the Center will allow an understanding of how glycosylation is controlled during differentiation and will allow the development of tools to promote the use of stem cells to treat human disease. In addition, the technology developed will be applicable to the study of other cell types, including cancer cells that are progressing to a more invasive phenotype. The technology developed will also allow others in the scientific community to participate in glycomics research through dissemination of the new methods developed and through the analytical services provided by the resource to other scientists requesting assistance in glycomic analyses.

http://www-ssrl.slac.stanford.edu/content/science/ssrl-smb-program

Biomedical technology research center that operates as a integrated center with three primary areas (or cores) of technological research and development and scientific focus: macromolecular crystallography (MC), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and small-angle X-ray scattering/diffraction (SAXS) . Central to the core technological developments in all three areas is the development and utilization of improved detectors and instrumentation, especially to be able to take maximum advantage of the high brightness of SSRL?s third-generation synchrotron X-ray storage ring (SPEAR3). A primary focus is the use of enhanced computing and data management tools to provide more user-friendly, real-time and on-line instrumentation control, including full remote access for crystallography, data reduction and analysis.

http://www.mouseconnectome.org/

Three-dimensional digital connectome atlas of the C57Black/6J mouse brain and catalog of neural tracer injection cases, which will eventually cover the entire brain. Serial sections of each case are available to view at 10x magnification in the interactive iConnectome viewer. The Image Gallery provides a glimpse into some of the highlights of their data set. Representative images of multi-fluorescent tracer labeling can be viewed, while more in depth examination of these and all other cases can be performed in the iConnectome viewer. Phase 1 of this project involves generating a physical map of the basic global wiring diagram by applying proven, state of the art experimental circuit tracing methods systematically, uniformly, and comprehensively to the structural organization of all major neuronal pathways in the mouse brain. Connectivity imaging data for the whole mouse brain at cellular resolution will be presented within a standard 3D anatomic frame available through the website and accompanied by a comprehensive searchable online database. A Phase 2 goal for the future will allow users to view, search, and generate driving direction-like roadmaps of neuronal pathways linking any and all structures in the nervous system. This could be looked on as a pilot project for more ambitious projects in species with larger brains, such as human, and for providing a reliable framework for more detailed local circuitry mapping projects in the mouse.

The template was MNI-ICBM-152 and the data from the normal subjects were normalized by affine transformation. Image dimensions are 181x217x181, 1 mm isotropic. There are two types of maps. The first one is the averaged tensor map and the second one is probabilistic maps of 11 white matter tracts reconstructed by FACT. # ICBM Group-averaged atlases: This atlas was created from ICBM database.

http://www.wanprc.org/primate-resources/pathology-tissue-program/

A comparative pathology unit offering pathology support, training programs, and a Tissue Distribution Program (TDP). The TDP provides a wide variety of nonhuman primate tissues to investigative groups within and outside the Washington National Primate Research Center (WaNPRC). Tissue and pathology services (ACVP board certified Veterinary Pathologists), full histology services (including immunohistochemistry and frozen sectioning), and protocol development consultation are available. The Pathology and Tissue Program is an integration of comparative pathology activities occurring at the Washington National Primate Research Center and those occurring within the University of Washington Department of Comparative Medicine ((DCM). Using this model, Washington National Primate Research Center pathologists provide routine pathology support for Washington National Primate Research Center animals, with ancillary support, expertise, and guidance provided by DCM pathologists and mission-dedicated technicians and laboratories. This integrated comparative pathology unit also provides an excellent training opportunity for students such as those enrolled in the Department of Comparative Medicine post-doctoral training program, which offers training in laboratory animal medicine and comparative pathology. A particularly important function of this comparative pathology unit is support of the Tissue Distribution Program. The TDP provides a wide variety of nonhuman primate tissues to investigative groups within and outside the WaNPRC. This program is an extremely valuable method of conserving the nonhuman primate resource. NHP tissues and biological materials are collected in preparation for RNA/DNA isolation, cell culture, immunohistochemistry/histology, anatomic dissection, and cell sorting. Capabilities of the TDP include, but are not limited to flash frozen preservation, sterile preparation, perfusion, technical surgical dissections, and OCT embedding. In conjunction with the Histology and Imaging core of the University of Washington DCM, research capabilities post-collection include in situ hybridization, confocal and fluorescent microscopy, live cell imaging (DeltaVision), and whole slide scanning with image analysis (Visiopharm, Nikon Elements, and Image Pro). Centralized coordination of nonhuman primate tissue requests with animal availability allows support for a large number of biomedical programs with significantly decreased impact on the animal resource.

A tool for performing multi-cluster gene functional enrichment analyses on large scale data (microarray experiments with many time-points, cell-types, tissue-types, etc.). It facilitates co-analysis of multiple gene lists and yields as output a rich functional map showing the shared and list-specific functional features. The output can be visualized in tabular, heatmap or network formats using built-in options as well as third-party software. It uses the hypergeometric test to obtain functional enrichment achieved via the gene list enrichment analysis option available in ToppGene.

http://www.pathbase.net/

Database of histopathology photomicrographs and macroscopic images derived from mutant or genetically manipulated mice. The database currently holds more than 1000 images of lesions from mutant mice and their inbred backgrounds and further images are being added continuously. Images can be retrieved by searching for specific lesions or class of lesion, by genetic locus, or by a wide set of parameters shown on the Advanced Search Interface. Its two key aims are: * To provide a searchable database of histopathology images derived from experimental manipulation of the mouse genome or experiments conducted on genetically manipulated mice. * A reference / didactic resource covering all aspects of mouse pathology Lesions are described according to the Pathbase pathology ontology developed by the Pathbase European Consortium, and are available at the site or on the Gene Ontology Consortium site - OBO. As this is a community resource, they encourage everyone to upload their own images, contribute comments to images and send them their feedback. Please feel free to use any of the SOAP/WSDL web services. (under development)
