Dr. Eric Turner''s laboratory studies the mechanisms underlying the development of the nervous system. The vertebrate brain is comprised of a tremendous variety of neurons, each class exhibiting a unique phenotype characterized by the expression of specific neurotransmitter receptors, ion channels, patterns of axonal growth, and synapse formation. The research we conduct focuses on the critical role transcription factors play in the specification of neuronal cell type during development. We are particularly interested in transcription factors of the homeodomain family that bind to DNA and in doing so activate or repress gene expression. One area of study is the role of POU-domain transciption factor Brn3a in axon growth and survival. The primary research areas are: * Neuronal cell fate determination: The expression of regulatory genes is manipulated in living chick embryos using microsurgery and electroporation and the effects on neural marker genes studied. * Molecular mechanisms of gene regulation: Target DNA binding sites of neural transcription factors are biochemically characterized and findings coordinated with sequence data from the mouse and human genomes. * Targeted misexpression of regulatory genes: Transgenic and knockout mouse technology is used to misexpress genes of interest, and the effects on neural marker genes, axonal growth, and cell survival studied. * Global analysis of neural gene expression: Micro-arrays (GeneChips) are employed in conjunction with other areas of study to understand the coordinated regulation of gene expression in the nervous system. Dr. Turner is a member of the University of California, San Diego''s Graduate Program in Neuroscience and Biomedical Sciences Program and accepts students from these two programs. Interesting rotation projects are available using methods ranging from biochemistry and molecular biology to embryology. Additionally, Dr. Turner is also the Director of this NIMH-funded training program for research-oriented psychiatrists, psychologists, and basic neuroscientists working in areas relevant to psychiatry. Typically Fellows spend two years in the program, during which they develop a research project under the close supervision of one of the highly productive members of the UCSD Department of Psychiatry, or another investigator in the La Jolla (UCSD/Salk/Scripps) research community.

Graduate School of Genome Science and Technology (GST) is a Life Science graduate program founded on two premises. First, whole-genome sequences and related large-scale datasets have transformed how we perform biological research, a trend that is gathering momentum and is anticipated to frame the way the biology research is accomplished for many years to come. Second, advances in technology, whether at the level of instrumentation, computation, or wet lab reagents, have long been a powerful driving force in biology. The GST program is home to faculty mentors from many walks of life. The virulence factors of pathogenic fungi and the engineering of photosynthetic reaction complexes for bioenergy harvesting are just two examples from the cornucopia of research projects being pursued in GST.

This website is a life-sciences research wiki hosted on Google Sites and managed by Principal Investigator Christopher Hogue at the National University of Singapore''''s Department of Biological Sciences on behalf of the Mechanobiology Institute of Singapore. Mechanobiology is the study of cellular and molecular systems that either respond to or generate forces. One of the major efforts of the Mechanobiology Institute is THE MANUAL OF CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR FUNCTION, a Wiki inspired online text resource. Brief History: Between 1997-2007 the Hogue Laboratory was located at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto where we developed BIND and other bioinformatics resources. Dr. Hogue was affiliated with the University of Toronto as a non-tenure track Associate Professor. Facing funding and staffing cutbacks in 2005, the intellectual property amassed by the group was sold by Mount Sinai Hospital & founders to Thomson-Reuters Scientific in March of 2007. In late 2007 Dr. Hogue moved to Singapore where he is now tenure-track faculty in Southeast Asia''''s Premiere Research University - the National Unviversity of Singapore.

Database of physiological, pharmacological, and pathological information on humans and other organisms and integration through computational modeling. Models include everything from diagrammatic schema, suggesting relationships among elements composing a system, to fully quantitative, computational models describing the behavior of physiological systems and an organism''s response to environmental change. Each mathematical model is an internally self-consistent summary of available information, and thereby defines a working hypothesis about how a system operates. Predictions from such models are subject to test, with new results leading to new models.BR /> A Tool developed for the NSR Physiome project is JSim, an open source, free software. JSim is a Java-based simulation system for building quantitative numeric models and analyzing them with respect to experimental reference data. JSim''s primary focus is in physiology and biomedicine, however its computational engine is quite general and applicable to a wide range of scientific domains. JSim models may intermix ODEs, PDEs, implicit equations, integrals, summations, discrete events and procedural code as appropriate. JSim''s model compiler can automatically insert conversion factors for compatible physical units as well as detect and reject unit unbalanced equations. JSim also imports the SBML and CellML model archival formats. All JSim models are open source. Goals of the Physiome Project: - To develop and database observations of physiological phenomenon and interpret these in terms of mechanism (a fundamentally reductionist goal). - To integrate experimental information into quantitative descriptions of the functioning of humans and other organisms (modern integrative biology glued together via modeling). - To disseminate experimental data and integrative models for teaching and research. - To foster collaboration amongst investigators worldwide, to speed up the discovery of how biological systems work. - To determine the most effective targets (molecules or systems) for therapy, either pharmaceutic or genomic. - To provide information for the design of tissue-engineered, biocompatible implants.

An online science magazine with short science articles about everyday life and popular science book reviews. We like science. Thus, we have created this popular science online magazine to describe and explain scientific topics that confront us in our everyday life. These topics can be about natural phenomena, physics of sports, biology and life science, or the physics behind standard devices or common technologies. Additionally, we present and review popular science books. We address the general public in our science articles. Thus, our articles are short and explanations are easy to understand. We use a simple language to explain the science behind everyday topics so that it is fun to read. The texts are suitable for all age groups and also for non native English speakers and ESL classes. Submissions are welcome and after a review process, we would be happy to publish your contribution under your name. We also included a section in which readers can post questions. These posts inspire future articles. Science articles can be used as authentic sources in content-based instruction to teach English Language Learners (ELLs). For this purpose, I have created materials for teaching English in a scientific context. Select Science Niblets articles have been supplemented with relevant activities and additional authentic materials that encourage intercultural discussion and the use of the four receptive and productive language skills: reading, listening, writing and speaking. The theoretical and pedagogical framework that underlie the materials are explained in the teachers'' guide. The materials themselves consist of a lesson plan for the teacher and a learner worksheet that are printable pdf files.
