http://www.bccancer.bc.ca/default.htm

A portal that provides a province-wide, population-based cancer control program for the residents of British Columbia and the Yukon. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate covers the spectrum of cancer care, from prevention and screening, to diagnosis, treatment, and through to rehabilitation. The BC Cancer Agency''s mandate is driven by a three-fold mission: 1. To reduce the incidence of cancer; 2. To reduce the mortality rate of people with cancer; 3. To improve the quality of life of people living with cancer. This mission drives everything we do, including providing screening, diagnosis and care, setting treatment standards, and conducting research into causes of, and cures for, cancer. The BC Cancer Agency operates five regional cancer centers, providing assessment and diagnostic services, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and supportive care. Each of the BC Cancer Agency''s centers delivers cancer treatment based on provincial standards and guidelines established by the Agency. We work in partnership with communities to provide a network of chemotherapy clinics so patients can receive care closer to home. Research is an essential part of the BC Cancer Agency''s mission to not only find the causes of cancer, but to find better treatments for prolonged life and better quality of life. With direct links between the BC Cancer Agency''s physicians and researchers at our five centers, the Deeley Research Centre (located in Victoria) and the BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre (located in Vancouver), we can quickly translate new discoveries into clinical applications. The BC Cancer Agency''s Research Centre includes eight specialty laboratories including the Genome Sciences Centre, and the Terry Fox Laboratory. The BC Cancer Foundation raises funds for cancer research and enhancements to care at the BC Cancer Agency.

The Alberta Cancer Foundation is more than a charity. It''s a movement for cancer-free lives today, tomorrow and forever. It''s a movement of those who know a cancer-free future is possible and who won''t settle for some day. It''s a movement of those who stand with Albertans who have no choice but to stand up to cancer. It''s a movement of those who know something can be done and are willing to do it. For those facing cancer today, in honour of those lost to cancer, and for generations to come, we promise progress. Our mission is to deliver progress in cancer research, prevention, treatment and care by generating community investment for Alberta''s coordinated research strategy, the Cross Cancer Institute, Tom Baker Cancer Centre and 15 other cancer centres throughout the province. The Alberta Cancer Foundation is a Registered Charity - Business Number 11878 0477 RR0001. Your dollar fights cancer on every front: research, prevention, screening, early diagnosis, education, treatment and care.

http://www.seqan.de/projects/razers/

A read mapping software program with adjustable sensitivity based on counting q-grams. RazerS 3 supports shared-memory parallelism, an additional seed-based filter with adjustable sensitivity, a much faster, banded version of the Myers? bit-vector algorithm for verification, memory saving measures and support for the SAM output format. This leads to a much improved performance for mapping reads, in particular long reads with many errors.

http://seqbarracuda.sourceforge.net/

A sequence mapping software that utilizes the massive parallelism of graphics processing units to accelerate the inexact alignment of short sequence reads to a particular location on a reference genome. It can align a paired-end library containing 14 million pairs of 76bp reads to the Human genome in about 27 minutes (from fastq files to SAM alignment) using a ��380 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680*. The alignment throughput can be boosted further by using multiple GPUs (up to 8) at the same time. Being based on BWA (http://bio-bwa.sf.net) from the Sanger Institute, BarraCUDA delivers a high level of alignment fidelity and is comparable to other mainstream alignment programs. It can perform gapped alignment with gap extensions, in order to minimise the number of false variant calls in re-sequencing studies.

http://code.google.com/p/crop-tingchenlab/

A clustering tool designed mainly for Metagenomics studies, which clusters 16S rRNA sequences into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTU). By using a Gaussian Mixture model, CROP can automatically determine the best clustering result for 16S rRNA sequences at different phylogenetic levels without setting a hard cutoff threshold as hierarchical clustering does. Yet, at the same time, it is able to manage large datasets and to overcome sequencing errors.

The Stanley Medical Research Institute (SMRI) is a nonprofit organization supporting research on the causes of, and treatments for, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Since it began in 1989, SMRI has supported more than $300 million in research in over 30 countries around the world. It is the largest nongovernmental source of funds for research on these diseases in the United States. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are the most important psychiatric disorders in the United States, affecting more than 4 million people at any given time. Until recent years, little research had been done on these diseases, and the treatment of them was unsatisfactory. The neuroscience revolution has brought with it great opportunities for increased understanding of brain diseases such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. SMRI is on the leading edge of this exciting research. Approximately 75 percent of SMRI expenditures goes towards the development of new treatments for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The remaining funds are used for research on the causes of these diseases. SMRI has a close relationship with and is the supporting organization for the Treatment Advocacy Center (TAC). The Treatment Advocacy Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating barriers to the timely and effective treatment of severe psychiatric disorders. TAC promotes laws, policies, and practices for the delivery of psychiatric care and supports the development of innovative treatments for and research into the causes of severe and persistent psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

Program that develops materials and methods to improve measurements of autoantibodies that are predictive of type 1 diabetes. These are the most sensitive and meaningful measures for predicting this disease. Historically, autoantibody measures have been variable among laboratories; therefore, this program, in collaboration with the Immunology of Diabetes Society, was established. The goals of DASP are to improve laboratory methods, evaluate laboratory performance, support the development of sensitive and specific measurement technologies, and develop reference methods. Currently, 48 key laboratories from 19 countries participate in DASP.
