The mission of ILAR is to evaluate and disseminate information on issues related to the scientific, technological, and ethical use of animals and related biological resources in research, testing, and education. Using the principles of refinement, reduction, and replacement (3Rs) as a foundation, ILAR promotes high-quality science through the humane care and use of animals and the implementation of alternatives. Through the reports of expert committees, the ILAR Journal, web-based resources, and other means of communication, ILAR functions as a component of the National Academies to provide independent, objective advice to the federal government, the international biomedical research community, and the public. ILAR supports the responsible use of animals in research, testing, and education as a key component to advancing the health and quality of life of humans and animals. It promotes high-quality science and humane care and use of research animals based upon the principles of refinement, replacement, and reduction (the 3Rs) and high ethical standards. It fosters best practices that enhance human and animal welfare by organizing and disseminating information and by facilitating dialogue among interested parties. It has developed a unique Search Engine to search for animal models and strains. This search engine surveys all the websites of vendors and repositories of laboratory animals and biological material on our Links page. The ILAR develops guidelines on laboratory animal care and use and conducts conferences, symposia, and workshops on important laboratory animal problems. ILAR publishes the ILAR Journal on a quarterly basis, as well as conference proceedings and special reports prepared by committees of experts. A list of ILAR publications on issues related to laboratory animal research is available on the Web site. As part of the Animal Models and Genetic Stocks Information Exchange Program, ILAR staff members answer direct telephone and mail inquiries and maintain a Web page containing a database on animal models and genetic stock. The Web site also offers a comprehensive search engine that enables users to find information on the existence and location of special animal models, correct nomenclature to identify animals, and related topics such as diseases of animals and relevant publications.

Brain Canada is a national non-profit organization that develops and supports collaborative, multidisciplinary, multi-institutional research across the neurosciences. Through partnering with the public, private and voluntary sectors, Brain Canada connects the knowledge and resources available in this area to accelerate neuroscience research and funding and maximize the output of Canada''s world-class scientists and researchers. Brain Canada was created to address the twin challenges of increasing the scale of brain research funding in Canada and widening its scope to encourage interdisciplinary collaboration to produce insights for treating multiple disorders. Brain Canada is built on the successes and model of NeuroScience Canada (NSC). Established in 1999, NSC raised more than $11.5 million, leveraged over $20 million with partnered funding, and funded 100 individual and teams of researchers in Canada. Brain Canada is the new vision for Canadian brain researchthe voice for the brain and the grouping of brain disorders, raising awareness about their prevalence and impact on individuals, families, the economy and society. But most important, through the research we are funding, we are giving hope to the millions of Canadians who are directly or indirectly touched by diseases, disorders, and injuries of the brain, spinal cord and nervous system.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on May 18th, 2016. A foundation that was founded in 2001, and sponsors academic centers throughout the US. The MIchael Stern Parkinson's Research Foundation focuses its efforts mainly on finding the causes of the disease, finding effective treatments, and discovering a cure for the disease. The foundation is notably looking into dopamine and its effects on neural connections, as well its possibility to be used for treatment.
Dr. Greengard has assembled a close knit group of more than 25 outstanding scientists who are focused on translating the fundamental understandings about the dopamine system into new treatments for Parkinson's. The core team of researchers is based at the Stern Foundation laboratory on the campus of The Rockefeller University interacts continually with collaborators from the United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Italy, Japan and Korea. This global presence ensures that no promising research lead is overlooked, and that progress can be made on multiple fronts simultaneously. As the Foundation grew it was able to expand its support for critical neurological research to two other institutions, Harvard University's McLean Hospital, where we support the research of Dr. Ole Isacson whose research lab, The Stern Center for Neuroregeneration Research is using gene therapy to protect the most vulnerable neurons in PD models; and the Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders, where Yale Professors Dr. Ken Marek and Dr. John Seibyl are developing novel tools for early detection and monitoring of Parkinson's disease by studying physiologic, biochemical and neuroimaging biomarkers for non-dominergic manifestations of Parkinsonism. :NIF thanks the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, http://www.pdf.org for their referral of this resource to us.

Lab interested in understanding how neuronal circuitries of the brain support its cognitive capacities. Its goal is to provide rational, mechanistic explanations of cognitive functions at a descriptive level. In the lab''s view, the most promising area of cognitive faculties for scientific inquiry is memory, since it is a well-circumscribed term, can be studied in animals and substantial knowledge has accumulated on the molecular mechanisms of synaptic plasticity. Available software: * NeuroScope: NeuroScope can display local field potentials (EEG), neuronal spikes, behavioral events, as well as the position of the animal in the environment. It also features limited editing capabilities. * Klusters: Klusters is a powerful and easy-to-use cluster cutting application designed to help neurophysiologists sort action potentials from multiple neurons on groups of electrodes (e.g., tetrodes or multisite silicon probes). * KlustaKwik: KlustaKwik is a program for automatic cluster analysis, specifically designed to run fast on large data sets. * MATLAB m-files: A selection of MATLAB files developed in the lab., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on June 08, 2012. The function of the IMR is to select, import, cryopreserve, maintain, and distribute these important strains of mice to the research community. To improve their value for research, the IMR also undertakes genetic development of stocks, such as transferring mutant genes or transgenes to defined genetic backgrounds and combining transgenes and/or targeted mutations to create new mouse models for research. The function of the IMR is to: * select biomedically important stocks of transgenic, chemically induced, and targeted mutant mice * import these stocks into the Jackson Laboratory by rederivation procedures that rid them of any pathogens they might carry * cryopreserve embryos from these stocks to protect them against accidental loss and genetic contamination * backcross the mutation onto an inbred strain, if necessary * distribute them to the scientific community More than 1000 mutant stocks have been accepted by the IMR from 1992 through December 2006. Current holdings include models for research on cancer; breast cancer; immunological and inflammatory diseases; neurological diseases; behavioral, cardiovascular and heart diseases; developmental, metabolic and other diseases; reporter (e.g., GFP) and recombinase (e.g., cre/loxP) strains. About eight strains a month are being added to the IMR holdings. Research is being conducted on improved methods for assisted reproduction and speed congenic production. Most of the targeted mutants arrive on a mixed 129xC57BL/6 genetic background, and as many of these as possible are backcrossed onto an inbred strain (usually C57BL/6J). In addition, new mouse models are being created by intercrossing carriers of specific transgenes and/or targeted mutations. Simple sequence length polymorphism DNA markers are being used to characterize and evaluate differences between inbred strains, substrains, and embryonic stem cell lines.
