http://embryoimaging.org/

Collection of high resolution images and movies of mouse and human embryos produced using high resolution episcopic microscopy (HREM). Each data set is a series of block-face images generated during sectioning through an entire embryo, typically cut at 2-3 micrometers. Datasets are organized by approximate developmental stage and each embryo has been assigned a specimen ID (SID) for identification. This is an ongoing project funded by the Wellcome Trust to provide comprehensive imaging of normal and mutant mouse embryos that will complement the standard anatomical texts and form the basis for systematic phenotyping. * Movies: A 3D reconstruction shows each embryo, and lower resolution movies created through each orthogonal plane enable you to quickly review the data set. * Image Stacks: In the stack viewer, you can step through the images in sequence, zoom in to see fine details and adjust the image contrast. * NEW: Embryo Comparison: Two image stacks can now be compared in the stack viewer.

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/

Public archive providing a comprehensive record of the world''''s nucleotide sequencing information, covering raw sequencing data, sequence assembly information and functional annotation. All submitted data, once public, will be exchanged with the NCBI and DDBJ as part of the INSDC data exchange agreement. The European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) captures and presents information relating to experimental workflows that are based around nucleotide sequencing. A typical workflow includes the isolation and preparation of material for sequencing, a run of a sequencing machine in which sequencing data are produced and a subsequent bioinformatic analysis pipeline. ENA records this information in a data model that covers input information (sample, experimental setup, machine configuration), output machine data (sequence traces, reads and quality scores) and interpreted information (assembly, mapping, functional annotation). Data arrive at ENA from a variety of sources including submissions of raw data, assembled sequences and annotation from small-scale sequencing efforts, data provision from the major European sequencing centers and routine and comprehensive exchange with their partners in the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC). Provision of nucleotide sequence data to ENA or its INSDC partners has become a central and mandatory step in the dissemination of research findings to the scientific community. ENA works with publishers of scientific literature and funding bodies to ensure compliance with these principles and to provide optimal submission systems and data access tools that work seamlessly with the published literature. ENA is made up of a number of distinct databases that includes the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database (Embl-Bank), the newly established Sequence Read Archive (SRA) and the Trace Archive. The main tool for downloading ENA data is the ENA Browser, which is available through REST URLs for easy programmatic use. All ENA data are available through the ENA Browser. Note: EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database (EMBL-Bank) is entirely included within this resource.

http://www.openmicroscopy.org/site/support/ome-model/ome-tiff/

A standardized file format for multidimensional microscopy image data. OME-TIFF maximizes the respective strengths of OME-XML and TIFF. It takes advantage of the rich metadata defined in OME-XML while retaining the pixel structure in multi-page TIF format for compatibility with many image-processing applications. An OME-TIFF dataset has the following characteristics: * Image planes are stored within one multi-page TIFF file, or across multiple TIFF files. Any image organization is feasible. * A complete OME-XML metadata block describing the dataset is embedded in each TIFF file's header. Thus, even if some of the TIFF files in a dataset are misplaced, the metadata remains intact. * The OME-XML metadata block may contain anything allowed in a standard OME-XML file. * OME-TIFF uses the standard TIFF mechanism for storing one or more image planes in each of the constituent files, instead of encoding pixels as base64 chunks within the XML. Since TIFF is an image format, it makes sense to only use OME-TIFF as opposed to OME-XML, when there is at least one image plane.

Database of the most recent sequence updates and annotations for the L. major genome. New annotations are constantly being added to keep up with published manuscripts and feedback from the Trypanosomatid research community. You may search by Protein Length, Molecular Mass, Gene Type, Date, Location, Protein Targeting, Transmembrane Helices, Product, GO, EC, Pfam ID, Curation and Comments, and Dbxrefs. BLAST and other tools are available. Leishmania species cause a spectrum of human diseases in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. We have sequenced the 36 chromosomes of the 32.8-megabase haploid genome of Leishmania major (Friedlin strain) and predict 911 RNA genes, 39 pseudogenes, and 8272 protein-coding genes, of which 36% can be ascribed a putative function. These include genes involved in host-pathogen interactions, such as proteolytic enzymes, and extensive machinery for synthesis of complex surface glycoconjugates. The Pathogen Genomics group at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute played a major role in sequencing the genome of Leishmania major (see Ivens et al.) Details of the centres involved and which chromosomes they sequenced, are given. The sequence data were obtained by adopting several parallel approaches, including complete cosmid sequencing, whole chromosome shotguns and/or BAC sequencing/skimming. The Leishmania parasite is an intracellular pathogen of the immune system targeting macrophages and dendritic cells. The disease Leishmaniasis affects the populations of 88 counties worldwide with symptoms ranging from disfiguring cutaneous and muco-cutaneous lesions that can cause widespread destruction of mucous membranes to visceral disease affecting the haemopoetic organs. In collaboration with GeneDB, the EuPathDB genomic sequence data and annotations are regularly deposited on TriTrypDB where they can be integrated with other datasets and queried using customized queries.

Using robotic devices to investigate human motor behavior, this group develops computational models to understand the underlying control and learning processes. By simulating novel objects or dynamic environments they study how the brain recalibrates well-learned motor skills or acquires new ones. These insights are used to design fMRI studies to investigate how these processes map onto the brain. They have developed a number of novel techniques of how to study motor control in the MRI environment, and how to analyze MRI data of the human cerebellum. They also study patients with stroke or neurological disease to further determine how the brain manages to control the body.

http://www.orcid.org/

Non-profit organization dedicated to solving the author/contributor name ambiguity problem in scholarly communications by creating a central registry of unique identifiers for individual researchers and an open and transparent linking mechanism between ORCID and other current author ID schemes. These identifiers, and the relationships among them, can be linked to the researcher''s output to enhance the scientific discovery process and to improve the efficiency of research funding and collaboration within the research community. The ideal solution is to establish a registry that is adopted and embraced as the de facto standard by the whole of the community. A resolution to the systemic name ambiguity problem, by means of assigning unique identifiers linkable to an individual''s research output, will enhance the scientific discovery process and improve the efficiency of funding and collaboration. The organization brings together the leaders of the most influential universities, funding organizations, societies, publishers and corporations from around the globe and is managed by a fourteen member Board of Directors. A disambiguated set of authors will allow new services and benefits to be built for the research community by all stakeholders in scholarly communication: from commercial actors to non-profit organizations, from governments to universities.
