Project to addresses challenges associated with the preservation of scientific experiments in data-intensive science, including: * The definition of models to describe, in a standard way, scientific experiments by means of workflow-centric Research Objects, which comprise scientific workflows, the provenance of their executions, interconnections between workflows and related resources (e.g., datasets, publications, etc.), and social aspects related to such scientific experiments. * The collection of best practices for the creation and management of Research Objects. * The analysis and management of decay in scientific workflows. To address these challenges they are creating an architecture and tooling for the access, manipulation, sharing, reuse and evolution of Research Objects in a range of disciplines. This will result into the next generation RO-enabled myExperiment.

http://www.semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_MediaWiki

A free, open-source extension to MediaWiki - the wiki software that powers Wikipedia - that helps to search, organize, tag, browse, evaluate, and share the wiki''s content. While traditional wikis contain only text which computers can neither understand nor evaluate, SMW adds semantic annotations that allow a wiki to function as a collaborative database. Semantic MediaWiki introduces some additional markup into the wiki-text which allows users to add semantic annotations to the wiki. While this first appears to make things more complex, it can also greatly simplify the structure of the wiki, help users to find more information in less time, and improve the overall quality and consistency of the wiki. A large number of related extensions have been created that extend the ability to edit, display and browse through the data stored by SMW: the term Semantic MediaWiki is sometimes used to refer to this entire family of extensions.

http://eurofung.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=section&id=3&Itemid=4

The Eurofung project is a Coordination Action with the aim of developing a strategy to build up and maintain an integrated, sustainable European genomic database required for innovative genomics research of filamentous fungal model organisms of interest. This database will become a crystallization point for related systems and then could be integrated and conserved in a central European genomic database. The consortium counts 32 member laboratories, three of which have partner status. A Fungal Industrial Platform (FIP) of 13 members is also associated with the project. The project focuses on several filamentous fungi for different reasons. Aspergillus nidulans has a long record of use as a fungal model organism. Aspergillus niger, Trichoderma reesei and Penicillium chrysogenum are important cell factories used for the production of enzymes and metabolites including compounds such as Beta-lactams with benefits to human health. The human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus serves not only as a model pathogen, but becomes more and more a serious threat to human health. The project contributes to create the conditions and facilities within Europe to widely apply all genomics technologies in filamentous fungal research. This will greatly expand our knowledge about filamentous fungi. This new genomics information will thus be beneficial to European biotechnology industries and help to improve the prevention and treatment of fungal disease. Expected results: The main results expected from this project are: - The contribution of the community to the manual annotation of important fungal genomes through annotation jamborees. - The realization of an integrated sustainable fungal genomic database through collaboration with bioinformatics centers and incorporation of the community data. - The realization of a fungal genomics knowledge base for the Eurofungbase community and the European fungal biotech industry through meetings, workshops and web-based information. - Intensified collaboration between the members of the network including the participating industries, thus strengthening the infrastructure for high quality fungal genomics research in Europe and furthermore determining joint research targets for the future. -Individualized training of a next generation of young scientists in fungal genomics and biotechnological research.

BBMRI is a pan-European and internationally broadly accessible research infrastructure and a network of existing and de novo biobanks and biomolecular resources. The infrastructure will include samples from patients and healthy persons, representing different European populations (with links to epidemiological and health care information), molecular genomic resources and biocomputational tools to optimally exploit this resource for global biomedical research. During the past 3 years BBMRI has grown into a 53-member consortium with over 280 associated organizations (largely biobanks) from over 30 countries, making it the largest research infrastructure project in Europe. During the preparatory phase the concept of a functional pan-European biobank was formulated and has now been presented to Member States of the European Union and for associated states for approval and funding. BBMRI will form an interface between specimens and data (from patients and European populations) and top-level biological and medical research. This can only be achieved through a distributed research infrastructure with operational units in all participating Member States. BBMRI will be implemented under the ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium) legal entity. BBMRI-ERIC foresees headquarters (central coordination) in Graz, Austria, responsible for coordination of the activities of National Nodes established in participating countries. BBMRI is in the process of submitting its application to the European Commission for a legal status under the ERIC regulation, with an expected start date at the end of 2011. Major synergism, gain of statistical power and economy of scale will be achieved by interlinking, standardizing and harmonizing - sometimes even just cross-referencing - a large variety of well-qualified, up-to date, existing and de novo national resources. The network should cover (1) major European biobanks with blood, serum, tissue or other biological samples, (2) molecular methods resource centers for human and model organisms of biomedical relevance, (3) and biocomputing centers to ensure that databases of samples in the repositories are dynamically linked to existing databases and to scientific literature as well as to statistical expertise. Catalog of European Biobanks www.bbmriportal.eu Username: guest / Password: catalogue The catalogue is intended to be used as a reference for scientists seeking information about biological samples and data suitable for their research. The BBMRI catalogue of European Biobanks provides a high-level description of Europe''s biobanks characteristics using a portal solution managing metadata and aggregate data of biobanks. The catalogue can be queried by country, by biobank, by ICD-groups, by specimen types, by specific strengths, by funding and more. A search function is available for all data.

http://www.genes2cognition.org/

A neuroscience research program that studies genes, the brain and behavior in an integrated manner, established to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of learning and memory, and shed light on the pathogenesis of disorders of cognition. Central to G2C investigations is the NMDA receptor complex (NRC/MASC), that is found at the synapses in the central nervous system which constitute the functional connections between neurons. Changes in the receptor and associated components are thought to be in a large part responsible for the phenomenon of synaptic plasticity, that may underlie learning and memory. G2C is addressing the function of synapse proteins using large scale approaches combining genomics, proteomics and genetic methods with electrophysiological and behavioral studies. This is incorporated with computational models of the organization of molecular networks at the synapse. These combined approaches provide a powerful and unique opportunity to understand the mechanisms of disease genes in behavior and brain pathology as well as provide fundamental insights into the complexity of the human brain. Additionally, Genes to Cognition makes available its biological resources, including gene-targeting vectors, ES cell lines, antibodies, and transgenic mice, generated for its phenotyping pipeline. The resources are freely-available to interested researchers.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on January 28, 2013. (URL is no longer valid) A platform for high-throughput proteomic analysis. Major objectives of IPP include the establishment of a broadly applicable platform of routine methods for the analysis of protein interaction networks in bio-medical research. A multidisciplinary approach will address; * their validation by cell biological, biochemical and biophysical methods. * their collection in a new type of public database. * their exploitation and use for in silico simulations of protein-interaction networks. The innovations generated in IPP will provide the basis for an efficient analysis and systems modeling of fundamental biological processes in health and disease. It will develop novel technology, including a high-end mass spectrometer with extremely large dynamic range, high-density peptide arrays, and improved visualization technology for light and electron microscopy. Additionally, the novel technologies will be validated with selected model systems of high relevance to medicine and biotechnology. Extensive bioinformatics support is a key element in the project to cope with the massive increase in experimental data on protein interactions obtained using the novel technologies. In particular, the efficient integration of disparate data sets represents a key challenge in proteomics and functional genomics. Therefore, the consortium includes the creator of the only European protein-interactions database, MINT. The multi-disciplinary efforts required in the scientific program of IPP are organized into four sub-projects (SP): * SP1: Tools for interaction analysis - SP1 is dedicated to the development of innovative proteomics technology to map protein-interaction networks and their cellular topology for the interaction analyses in SP2 and SP3. * SP2: Identification of interaction partners for protein domains - SP2 will generate (high throughput) data for important protein-protein interactions defined by bioinformatics and biomedical interest and by SP3, utilizing technology developed in SP1. * SP3: Functional analysis of interactions - SP3 focuses on the validation of technologies and tools developed in SP1. It will perform functional analyses of protein-interactions in medically and biochemically relevant prokaryotic and eukaryotic (mammalian) model systems. * SP4: Interactome database and modelling - SP4 provides the required bioinformatics infrastructure for the project, comprising the improvement of the public MINT database for the collection and dissemination of the interactome data; modelling and simulation of protein-interaction networks characterised in SP2 and SP3; and the dissemination of the technology developments to the scientific community.
