Consortium of 12 Biomedical sciences research infrastructure (BMS RI) partners to develop a shared e-infrastructure to allow interoperability between data and services in the biological, medical, translational and clinical domains (providing a complex knowledge environment comprising standards, ontologies, data and services) and thus strengthen biomedical resources in Europe. The BMS RIs are on the roadmap of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI). Connecting several European research infrastructures brings a diversity of ethical, legal and security concerns including data security requirements for participating e-Infrastructures that are storing or processing patient-related data (or biosamples): EATRIS, ECRIN, BBMRI, EuroBioImaging and EMBL-EBI. In addition, INSTRUCT is interested in secure sample transport and in intellectual property rights; Infrafrontier stores high-throughput data from mice. BBMRI with its focus on the availability of biomaterials is currently emphasizing aspects like k-anonymity and metadata management for its data. Sharing of imaging data by Euro-BioImaging poses challenges with respect to anonymisation and intellectual property. Therefore, an ethical, regulatory and security framework for international data sharing that covers these diverse areas and different types of data (e.g. clinical trials data, mouse data, and human genotype and DNA sequence data) is of crucial importance. The outcomes will lead to real and sustained improvement in the services the biomedical sciences research infrastructures offer to the research community. Data curation and sample description will be improved by the adoption of best practices and agreed standards. Many improvements will emerge from new interactions between RIs created by data linkage and networking. Ensuring access to relevant information for all life science researchers across all BMS RIs will enable scientists to conduct and share cutting-edge research.

The Deciphering Developmental Disorders (DDD) study aims to find out if using new genetic technologies can help doctors understand why patients get developmental disorders. To do this we have brought together doctors in the 23 NHS Regional Genetics Services throughout the UK and scientists at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, a charitably funded research institute which played a world-leading role in sequencing (reading) the human genome. The DDD study involves experts in clinical, molecular and statistical genetics, as well as ethics and social science. It has a Scientific Advisory Board consisting of scientists, doctors, a lawyer and patient representative, and has received National ethical approval in the UK. Over the next few years, we are aiming to collect DNA and clinical information from 12,000 undiagnosed children in the UK with developmental disorders and their parents. The results of the DDD study will provide a unique, online catalogue of genetic changes linked to clinical features that will enable clinicians to diagnose developmental disorders. Furthermore, the study will enable the design of more efficient and cheaper diagnostic assays for relevant genetic testing to be offered to all such patients in the UK and so transform clinical practice for children with developmental disorders. Over time, the work will also improve understanding of how genetic changes cause developmental disorders and why the severity of the disease varies in individuals. The Sanger Institute will contribute to the DDD study by performing genetic analysis of DNA samples from patients with developmental disorders, and their parents, recruited into the study through the Regional Genetics Services. Using microarray technology and the latest DNA sequencing methods, research teams will probe genetic information to identify mutations (DNA errors or rearrangements) and establish if these mutations play a role in the developmental disorders observed in patients. The DDD initiative grew out of the groundbreaking DECIPHER database, a global partnership of clinical genetics centres set up in 2004, which allows researchers and clinicians to share clinical and genomic data from patients worldwide. The DDD study aims to transform the power of DECIPHER as a diagnostic tool for use by clinicians. As well as improving patient care, the DDD team will empower researchers in the field by making the data generated securely available to other research teams around the world. By assembling a solid resource of high-quality, high-resolution and consistent genomic data, the leaders of the DDD study hope to extend the reach of DECIPHER across a broader spectrum of disorders than is currently possible.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. A pilot effort that has developed a centralized, web-based biospecimen locator that presents biospecimens collected and stored at participating Arizona hospitals and biospecimen banks, which are available for acquisition and use by researchers. Researchers may use this site to browse, search and request biospecimens to use in qualified studies. The development of the ABL was guided by the Arizona Biospecimen Consortium (ABC), a consortium of hospitals and medical centers in the Phoenix area, and is now being piloted by this Consortium under the direction of ABRC. You may browse by type (cells, fluid, molecular, tissue) or disease. Common data elements decided by the ABC Standards Committee, based on data elements on the National Cancer Institute''s (NCI''s) Common Biorepository Model (CBM), are displayed. These describe the minimum set of data elements that the NCI determined were most important for a researcher to see about a biospecimen. The ABL currently does not display information on whether or not clinical data is available to accompany the biospecimens. However, a requester has the ability to solicit clinical data in the request. Once a request is approved, the biospecimen provider will contact the requester to discuss the request (and the requester''s questions) before finalizing the invoice and shipment. The ABL is available to the public to browse. In order to request biospecimens from the ABL, the researcher will be required to submit the requested required information. Upon submission of the information, shipment of the requested biospecimen(s) will be dependent on the scientific and institutional review approval. Account required. Registration is open to everyone.. Documented on August 19,2019.The goal of The Gene Index Project is to use the available Expressed Sequence Transcript (EST) and gene sequences, along with the reference genomes wherever available, to provide an inventory of likely genes and their variants and to annotate these with information regarding the functional roles played by these genes and their products. The promise of genome projects has been a complete catalog of genes in a wide range of organisms. While genome projects have been successful in providing reference genome sequences, the problem of finding genes and their variants in genomic sequence remains an ongoing challenge. TGI has created an inventory that contains genes and their variants together with description. In addition, this resource is attempting to use these catalogs to find links between genes and pathways in different species and to provide lists of features within completed genomes that can aid in the understanding of how gene expression is regulated. DATABASES *Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (formerly known as TOGA - TIGR Orthologous Gene Alignment): Eukaryotic Gene Orthologues (EGO) at DFGI are generated by pair-wise comparison between the Tentative Consensus (TC) sequences that comprise the Dana Farber Gene Indices from individual organisms. The reciprocal pairs of the best match were clustered into individual groups and multiple sequence alignments were displayed for each group. *GeneChip Oncology Database (GCOD):Cancer gene expression database is a collection of publicly available microarray expression data on Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays related to human cancers. Currently only datasets with available raw data (Affymetrix .CEL files) are processed. All processed datasets were subjected to extensive manual curation, uniform processing and consistent quality control. You can browse the experiments in our collection, perform statistical analysis, and download processed data; or to search gene expression profiles using Entrez gene symbol, Unigene ID, or Affymetrix probeset ID. *Gene Indices: As of July 1, 2008, there are 111 publicly available gene indices. They are separated into 4 categories for better organization and easier access. Animal: 41, Plant: 45, Protist: 15, Fungal: 10 *Genomic Maps: Human, mouse, rat, chicken, drosophila melanogaster, zebrafish, mosquito, caenorhabditis elegans, Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, yeast, fission yeast Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) Gene Indices Software Tools: *TGI Clustering tools (TGICL): a software system for fast clustering of large EST datasets. *GICL: this package contains the scripts and all the necessary pre-compiled binaries for 32bit Linux systems. *clview: an assembly file viewer. *SeqClean:a script for automated trimming and validation of ESTs or other DNA sequences by screening for various contaminants, low quality and low-complexity sequences. *cdbfasta/cdbyank: fast indexing/retrieval of fasta records from flat file databases. *DAS/XML Genomic Viewer The Genomic viewer borrows modules from http://www.biodas.org (lstein (at) cshl.org) & http://webreference.com.
