Data files for a high resolution three dimensional (3D) structure of the rat hippocampus reconstructed from histological sections. The data files (supplementary data for Ropireddy et al., Neurosci., 2012 Mar 15;205:91-111) are being shared on the Windows Live cloud space provided by Microsoft. Downloadable data files include the Nissl histological images, the hippocampus layer tracings that can be visualized alone or superimposed to the corresponding Nissl images, the voxel database coordinates, and the surface rendering VRML files. * Hippocampus Nissl Images: The high resolution histological Nissl images obtained at 16 micrometer inter-slice distance for the Long-Evans rat hippocampus can be downloaded or directly viewed in a browser. This dataset consists of 230 jpeg images that cover the hippocampus from rostral to caudal poles. This image dataset is uploaded in seven parts as rar files. * Hippocampus Layer Tracings: The seven hippocampus layers ''ML, ''GC'', ''HILUS'' in DG and ''LM'', ''RAD'', ''PC'', ''OR'' in CA were segmented (traced) using the Reconstruct tool which can be downloaded from Synapse web. This tool outputs all the tracings for each image in XML format. The XML tracing files for all these seven layers for each of the above Nissl images are zipped into one file and can be downloaded. * Hippocampus VoxelDB: The 3D hippocampus reconstructed is volumetrically transformed into 16 micrometer sized voxels for all the seven layers. Each voxel is reported according to multiple coordinate systems, namely in Cartesian, along the natural hippocampal dimensions, and in reference to the canonical brain planes. The voxel database file is created in ascii format. The single voxel database file was split into three rar archive files. Please note that the three rar archive files should be downloaded and decompressed in a single directory in order to obtain the single voxel data file (Hippocampus-VoxelDB.txt). * 3D Surface Renderings: This is a rar archive file with a single VRML file containing the surface rendering of DG and CA layers. This VRML file can be opened and visualized in any VRML viewer, e.g. the open source software view3dscene. * 3D Hippocampus Movie: This movie contains visualization of the 3D surface renderings of CA (blue) and DG (red) inner and outer boundaries; neuronal embeddings of DG granule and CA pyramidal dendritic arbors; potential synapses between CA3b interneuron axon and pyramidal dendrite, and between CA2 pyramidal axon and CA pyramidal dendrites.

The human brain has the remarkable ability to adapt in response to changes in the environment over the course of a lifetime. This is the mechanism for learning, growth, and normal development. Similar changes or adaptations can also occur in response to focal brain injuries, e.g., partially-adapted neighboring brain regions or functionally-related brain systems can either substitute for some of the lost function or develop alternative strategies to overcome a disability. Through ongoing research, the Music and Neuroimaging Laboratory''s mission is to: * Reveal the perceptual and cognitive aspects of music processing including the perception and memory for pitch, rhythmic, harmonic, and melodic stimuli. * Investigate the use of music and musical stimuli as an interventional tool for educational and therapeutic purposes. * Reveal the behavioral and neural correlates of learning, skill acquisition, and brain adaptation in response to changes in the environment or brain injury in the developing and adult brain. * Reveal the determinants and facilitators for recovery from brain injury. Project topics include: Aphasia Therapy, Singing and Speaking, Tone Deafness / Congenital Amusia, Motor Recovery Studies, Music and Emotions, Music and Autism, Children and Music Making, Brain Stimulation, Adult Musician Studies, Absolute Pitch Studies, Acute Stroke Studies

A brain bank and laboratory focused on memory and motor disorders. Brains are sent to the laboratory for diagnosis and research for the State of Florida Alzheimer Disease Initiative and for the Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. As part of this brain banking function, fixed and frozen brain samples are obtained at autopsy and sent to the laboratory for diagnostic evaluation and for various types of research studies. The major types of analyses performed on the brain samples include neuro-histology, immunohistochemistry, confocal microscopy, electron microscopy and image analysis, as well as immunoassays. The latter are based upon Western blotting and enzyme linked immunoassays. The laboratory has a specific interest in the interface between normal aging and Alzheimer's disease, as well as in non-Alzheimer's degenerative disorders such as Lewy body dementia, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy and frontotemporal dementia. The primary focus of research on aging is neuropathologic characterization of brains of individuals who had been prospectively and longitudinally evaluated during life. These studies aim to determine differences in a range of biologic parameters in brains of people with normal cognitive, mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Their focus on Parkinson's disease is to identify preclinical Parkinson's disease in order to develop means for early diagnosis.

http://trans.nih.gov/bmap/index.htm

The Brain Molecular Anatomy Project is a trans-NIH project aimed at understanding gene expression and function in the nervous system. BMAP has two major scientific goals: # Gene discovery: to catalog of all the genes expressed in the nervous system, under both normal and abnormal conditions. # Gene expression analysis: to monitor gene expression patterns in the nervous system as a function of cell type, anatomical location, developmental stage, and physiological state, and thus gain insight into gene function. In pursuit of these goals, BMAP has launched several initiatives to provide resources and funding opportunities for the scientific community. These include several Requests for Applications and Requests for Proposals, descriptions of which can be found in this Web site. BMAP is also in the process of establishing physical and electronic resources for the community, including repositories of cDNA clones for nervous system genes, and databases of gene expression information for the nervous system. Most of the BMAP initiatives so far have focused on the mouse as a model species because of the ease of experimental and genetic manipulation of this organism, and because many models of human disease are available in the mouse. However, research in humans, other mammalian species, non-mammalian vertebrates, and invertebrates is also being funded through BMAP. For the convenience of interested investigators, we have established this Web site as a central information resource, focusing on major NIH-sponsored funding opportunities, initiatives, genomic resources available to the research community, courses and scientific meetings related to BMAP initiatives, and selected reports and publications. When appropriate, we will also post initiatives not directly sponsored by BMAP, but which are deemed relevant to its goals. Posting decisions are made by the Trans-NIH BMAP Committee

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on December 02, 2011. Notice: This domain name expired on 10/29/11 and is pending renewal or deletion PD-DOC is a portal and a database resource, hosting a database and linking to other databases and data sets of clinical and translational data. PD-DOC functions to organize and facilitate clinical and translational research in Parkinson's disease. The PD-DOC Database contains standardized data collected by user institutions on large numbers of patients with Parkinsons disease and other parkinsonian disorders. In some cases, data is obtained at a single point in time, while in others data is collected repeatedly over time. The PD-DOC Database is composed of the Core Data Set (CDS) which consists of those variables required to be gathered for each subject whose data is entered into the PD-DOC database. In 2005, working groups of Udall Center and invited experts deliberated to establish the components of each CDS section (e.g. General Clinical, Cognitive/Behavioral, Postmortem Brain Neuropathological Findings). The PD-DOC CDS was established and designed to optimize data analyses and data mining for large numbers of subjects participating in a variety of research studies. In most cases corresponding DNA samples are available form the NINDS Human Genetic Repository (at Coriell). Much of the website is publicly available for viewing. To request access to sections of the website dealing with downloading or requesting data, requesting a consultation, or submitting data or other information you will need to register. Before registering, you should read the PD-DOC Policies. Note that PD-DOC data can be used for research purposes only. Once your registration is successfully completed you will be automatically logged into the website.

Project to define a roadmap for diffusion MR imaging of traumatic brain imaging and design an infrastructure to implement the recommendations and tested to ensure feasibility, disseminate results, and facilitate deployment and adoption. The research roadmap and infrastructure development will concentrate on three areas: 1) standardization of diffusion imaging methodology, 2) trial design and patient selection for acute or chronic therapy, and 3) development of multi-center collaborations and repositories for evaluating whether advanced diffusion imaging does improve decision making and TBI patients' outcomes. # DTI MRI reproducability: One of the major areas of investigation in this project is to study the reproducibility of data acquisition and image analysis algorithms. Understanding reproducibility defines a base level of deviation from which scans can be analyzed with statistical significance. As part of this work they are also developing site qualification criteria with the intention of setting limits on the MR system minimal performance for acceptable use in TBI evaluation. # Infrastructure for image storage, analysis and visualization: There is a continuing need to refine and extend software methods for diffusion MRI data analysis and visualization. Not only to translate tools into clinical practice, but also to encourage continuation of the innovation and development of new tools and techniques. To deliver upon these goals they are designing and implementing a storage and computational infrastructure to provide access to shared datasets and intuitive interfaces for analysis and visualization through a variety of tools. A strong emphasis has been placed on providing secure data sharing and the ability to add community defined common data elements. The infrastructure is built upon a Software-as-a-Service model, in which tools are hosted and managed remotely allowing users access through well-defined interfaces. The final service will also facilitate composition or orchestration of workflows composed of different analysis and processing tasks (for example using LONI or XNAT pipelines) with the ultimate goal of providing automated no-click evaluations of diffusion MRI data. # Tool development: The final aspect of this project aims to facilitate and encourage tool development and contribution. By providing access to open datasets, they will create a platform on which tool developers can compare and improve and their tools. When tools are sufficiently mature they can be exposed in the infrastructure mentioned above and used by researchers and other developers.
