This project will develop an approach and mechanism to address the construction and propagation of linked data in the context of research and academic endeavour. The proposed work will build experiments in previous projects (Claddier, StoreLink) to develop a peer-to-peer protocol to underpin the construction of a web of linked data. This set of semantically annotated links between data resources forms a graph of citation and provenance and the project will build value added services to exploit these features. The project will address the following specific objectives: * To specify and implement the Intercom Protocol so that it can communicate a range of types of semantic links between resources via a secure communication mechanism. * To develop a practical working scenario involving data repositories, publication repositories, open science notebooks and publishers. * To develop aggregation techniques supporting added value services in search and impact analysis. * To evaluate of the approach with the identified stakeholders groups.

The Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems National Data and Statistical Center (TBINDSC) located at Craig Hospital in Englewood, Colorado, is a central resource for researchers and data collectors within the Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems (TBIMS) program. The primary purpose of the TBINDSC is to advance medical rehabilitation by increasing the rigor and efficiency of scientific efforts to longitudinally assess the experience of individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). The TBINDSC provides technical assistance, training, and methodological consultation to 16 TBIMS centers as they collect and analyze longitudinal data from people with TBI in their communities, and as they conduct research toward evidence-based TBI rehabilitation interventions. The project design includes * The first prospective, longitudinal multi-center study ever conducted which examines the course of recovery and outcomes following the delivery of a coordinated system of acute neurotrauma and inpatient rehabilitation. * Includes large scale follow-up to 20 years post-injury. Available from this site are links to the TBIMS Presentation and TBIMS Update, which has information about the individual model systems and descriptions of the injury and followup data that are being collected. 2007-2012 Project Priorities * Improved long-term outcomes of individuals with TBI by conducting 1-2 site-specific research projects to test innovative approaches that contribute to rehabilitation interventions and evaluating TBI outcomes in accordance with the focus areas identified in NIDRR''s Long-Range Plan. * Improved outcomes for individuals with TBI by participating in at least one collaborative research module project, which may range from pilot research to more extensive studies. * Continued assessment of long-term outcomes of TBI by enrolling at least 35 subjects per year into the longitudinal portion of the TBIMS database. * In carrying out research activities, each Center may select from the following research domains: Health and Function, Employment, Participation and Community Living, and Technology for Access and Function. In addition, each Center must: * Provide a multidisciplinary system of rehabilitation care specifically designed to meet the needs of individuals with TBI. The system must encompass a continuum of care, including emergency medical services, acute care services, acute medical rehabilitation services, and post-acute services; and * Coordinate with the NIDRR funded Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center to provide scientific results and information for dissemination to clinical and consumer audiences.

The Global Proteome Machine Organization was set up so that scientists involved in proteomics using tandem mass spectrometry could use that data to analyze proteomes. The projects supported by the GPMO have been selected to improve the quality of analysis, make the results portable and to provide a common platform for testing and validating proteomics results. The Global Proteome Machine Database was constructed to utilize the information obtained by GPM servers to aid in the difficult process of validating peptide MS/MS spectra as well as protein coverage patterns. This database has been integrated into GPM server pages, allowing users to quickly compare their experimental results with the best results that have been previously observed by other scientists.

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.

http://rulai.cshl.edu/splicetrap/

A statistic tool for quantifying exon inclusion ratios in paired-end RNA-seq data, with broad applications for the study of alternative splicing. SpliceTrap approaches to exon inclusion level estimation as a Bayesian inference problem. For every exon it quantifies the extent to which it is included, skipped or subjected to size variations due to alternative 3?/5? splice sites or Intron Retention. In addition, SpliceTrap can quantify alternative splicing within a single cellular condition, with no need of a background set of reads.

https://github.com/arq5x/bedtools2

A powerful toolset for genome arithmetic allowing one to address common genomics tasks such as finding feature overlaps and computing coverage. Bedtools allows one to intersect, merge, count, complement, and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.

The NIH Pain Consortium was established to enhance pain research and promote collaboration among researchers across the many NIH Institutes and Centers that have programs and activities addressing pain. To this end, the following goals have been identified for the Pain Consortium: * To develop a comprehensive and forward-thinking pain research agenda for the NIH - one that builds on what we have learned from our past efforts. * To identify key opportunities in pain research, particularly those that provide for multidisciplinary and trans-NIH participation. * To increase visibility for pain research - both within the NIH intramural and extramural communities, as well as outside the NIH. The latter audiences include our various pain advocacy and patient groups who have expressed their interests through scientific and legislative channels. * To pursue the pain research agenda through Public-Private partnerships, wherever applicable. This underscores a key dynamic that has been reinforced and encouraged through the Roadmap process.
