BrainStars (or B*) is a quantitative expression database of the adult mouse brain. The database has genome-wide expression profile at 51 adult mouse CNS regions. For 51 CNS regions, slices (0.5-mm thick) of mouse brain were cut on a Mouse Brain Matrix, frozen, and the specific regions were punched out bilaterally with a microdissecting needle (gauge 0.5 mm) under a stereomicroscope. For each region, we took samples every 4 hours, starting at ZT0 (Zeitgaber time 0; the time of lights on), for 24 hours (6 time-point samples for each region), and we pooled the samples from the different time points. We independently sampled each region twice (n=2). These samples were purified their RNA, and measured with Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays. Expression values were then summarized with the RMA method. After several analysis with the expression data, the data and analysis results were stored in the BrainStars database. The database has a REST-like Web API interface for accessing from your Web applications. This document shows how to access the database via our Web API.

The Burroughs Wellcome Fund is an independent private foundation dedicated to advancing the biomedical sciences by supporting research and other scientific and educational activities. Within this broad mission, BWF has two primary goals: * To help scientists early in their careers develop as independent investigators * To advance fields in the basic biomedical sciences that are undervalued or in need of particular encouragement BWF''s financial support is channeled primarily through competitive peer-reviewed award programs. * BWF''s endowment: $586.8 million at the end of FY 2009 * BWF approved $26.4 million in grants during FY 2009 BWF makes grants primarily to degree-granting institutions on behalf of individual researchers, who must be nominated by their institutions. To complement these competitive award programs, BWF also makes grants to nonprofit organizations conducting activities intended to improve the general environment for science. A Board of Directors comprising distinguished scientists and business leaders governs BWF. BWF was founded in 1955 as the corporate foundation of the pharmaceutical firm Burroughs Wellcome Co. In 1993, a generous gift from the Wellcome Trust in the United Kingdom, enabled BWF to become fully independent from the company, which was acquired by Glaxo in 1995. BWF has no affiliation with any corporation.

http://vibez.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/

An imaging and image analysis framework for virtual colocalization studies in larval zebrafish brains, currently available for 72hpf, 48hpf and 96hpf old larvae. ViBE-Z contains a database with precisely aligned gene expression patterns (1����m^3 resolution), an anatomical atlas, and a software. This software creates high-quality data sets by fusing multiple confocal microscopic image stacks, and aligns these data sets to the standard larva. The ViBE-Z database and atlas are stored in HDF5 file format. They are freely available for download. ViBE-Z provides a software that automatically maps gene expression data with cellular resolution to a 3D standard larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain. ViBE-Z enhances the data quality through fusion and attenuation correction of multiple confocal microscope stacks per specimen and uses a fluorescent stain of cell nuclei for image registration. It automatically detects 14 predefined anatomical landmarks for aligning new data with the reference brain. ViBE-Z performs colocalization analysis in expression databases for anatomical domains or subdomains defined by any specific pattern. The ViBE-Z database, atlas and software are provided via a web interface.

http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/ws/ws.php?entry=BLASTatlas

The BLASTatlas is a tool that is useful for mapping and visualizing whole genome homology of genes and proteins within a reference strain compared to other strains or species of one or more prokaryotic organisms using either blastp, blastn, tblastn, or blastx. DNA structural information is also included in the atlas to visualize the DNA chromosomal context of regions. Additional information can be added to these plots. The tool is SOAP compliant and WSDL (web services description language) files are available with programming examples available in Perl. The resolution is per-residue or per nucleotide depending on the regime of the blast search: For each annotation in the reference genome, the best hit in the database genome is found using one of the above algorithms. Each matching or mismatching residue/nucleotide of the best hit (based on BLAST score) is then mapped back to the genome sequence, using the coordinates provided in the annotations. By providing an interoperable method to carry out whole genome visualization of homology, this service offers bioinformaticians as well as biologists an easy-to-adopt workflow that can be directly called from the programming language of the user, hence enabling automation of repeated tasks. This tool can be relevant in many pangenomic as well as in metagenomic studies, by giving a quick overview of clusters of insertion sites, genomic islands and overall homology between a reference sequence and a data set.

A software tool designed to aid researchers in browsing through scientific literature. As one reads an online article and encounters a citation that looks important, CSIBS creates a preview summary of the cited document. The key innovation is the contextual tailoring of the automatically generated summaries using the citation and its surrounding text. As this context changes, so too does the citation-specific summary portion of the preview, which contains contextually-relevant sentences extracted from the cited document. The CSIBS preview presents relevant information required to appraise the citation, containing meta-data about the reference, the abstract and the citation-specific summary. Thus, CSIBS, alleviates information overload by enabling the reader to determine whether or not to invest time in exploring the cited article further.
