http://cardiogenomica.altervista.org/CARDIOGENOMICS/CardioGenomics%20Homepage.htm

The primary goal of the CardioGenomics PGA is to begin to link genes to structure, function, dysfunction and structural abnormalities of the cardiovascular system caused by clinically relevant genetic and environmental stimuli. The principal biological theme to be pursued is how the transcriptional network of the cardiovascular system responds to genetic and environmental stresses to maintain normal function and structure, and how this network is altered in disease. This PGA will generate a high quality, comprehensive data set for the functional genomics of structural and functional adaptation of the cardiovascular system by integrating expression data from animal models and human tissue samples, mutation screening of candidate genes in patients, and DNA polymorphisms in a well characterized general population. Such a data set will serve as a benchmark for future basic, clinical, and pharmacogenomic studies. Training and education are also a key focus of the CardioGenomics PGA. In addition to ongoing journal clubs and seminars, the PGA will be sponsoring symposia at major conferences, and developing workshops related to the areas of focus of this PGA. Information regarding upcoming events can be found in the Events section of this site, and information about training and education opportunities sponsored by CardioGenomics can be found on the Teaching and Education page. The CardioGenomics project came to a close in 2005. This server, cardiogenomics.med.harvard.edu, remains online in order to continue to distribute data that was generated by investigators under the auspices of the CardioGenomics Program for Genomic Applications (PGA). :Sponsors: This resource is supported by The National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the NIH., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

http://www.bna.org.uk/

The British Neuroscience Association, formerly known as The Brain Research Association, was officially relaunched in 1997, continuing many of the traditions of the BRA but with a professional and revamped style. Membership has increased dramatically since this time, now standing at 2000, and the BNA has increasingly taken a leading role in major events, such as hosting the Second Forum of European Neuroscience in Brighton in June, 2000. The BNA is the largest body representing all aspects of neuroscience from ion channels to whole animal behaviour. The Aims and Objectives of the Association are as follows: 1. To promote on a multidisciplinary basis the study of the development structure and function of the nervous system in health and disease. 2. To promote the dissemination of information to all those interested in the neurosciences and related disciplines by means of lectures, discussions, meetings and reports from time to time obtained from such researchers. 3. To advise as far as possible on issues in neurosciences related to health and disease. 4. To endeavour to increase public awareness and understanding of neuroscience research in health and disease. 5. To assist in the training of neuroscientists and other professionals engaged in neuroscience teaching and research. The BNA achieves these aims as follows: 1. By hosting a national meeting biennially, by publishing the proceedings of that meeting and distributing them to the scientific community. 2. By organising a number of focussed ''One Day symposia'' during the year, contributing to training courses for young neuroscientists and organising public lectures and events . 3. By regularly distributing information by the BNA Newsletter or by the BNA News E-mail Alert facility that can inform members about other relevant events, publications and topical issues. 4. By encouraging attendance at its own national meeting and those to which it is affiliated by awarding bursaries to students and young postdoctoral workers, and facilitating participation in the Society for Neuroscience annual meeting by offering sponsored abstract forms. 5. By awarding graduate and undergraduate prizes, and special awards to senior neuroscientists and to lay people who have contributed significantly through their own charitable work to the success of our discipline. 6. By constantly negotiating special discount prices of relevant books and journals, and by offering free online access to the European Journal of Neuroscience.The BNA is the fastest growing learned society, now boasting more than 2000 members, a rise of more than 40% since its relaunch as the BNA in 1997 from the former Brain Research Association. In addition to discounted journals and books and other occasional ''special offers'', the benefits of membership now include the following: 1. Reduced registration fees (up to 50%) to the National Meeting, and FREE admission to many events throughout the year including ''One Day Symposia'' and The Christmas Symposium. 2.

There are a lot of fine blogs out there covering the avalance of current neuroscience research. With this blog Thomas Rams��y & Martin Skov want to highlight the many consequences of this growing understanding of the human brain. We are especially interested in two types of consequences: Tinkering with the brain and What is it like to be a human being? * Tinkering with the brain: First and foremost, with an understanding of how the brain works comes the possibility of tinkering with it. We already use billions of dollars every year on psychopharmocologia trying to treat depression, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other mental diseases. But should we also use our knowledge of the brain to treat undesirable mental traits such as pedophilia or sociopathy? And what about enhancing normal brains? Clearly, evolution hasn''t endowed us with the most efficient brain imaginable. Shouldn''t we do something about its many shortcomings? * What is it like to be a human being?: Secondly, our view of human behavior is sure to change with our improved understanding of the human brain. Our knowledge of core human faculties such as language, social reasoning, aesthetics, and economics is already being challenged by modern neuroscience, yielding multiple hard questions. Do we have a free will? Is the mind innate or plastic? If people are not responsible for their actions (since all actions are caused by blind molecular processes) does our legal system still make sense? In short, will modern neuroscience come to completely redefine human nature? We try to discuss contemporary research literature, not just news reports. Although we will occasionally also target popular science reports, since we believe they play an important role in dissemining lessons from the lab. And in the future we plan to also post interviews with interesting researchers, as well as link to our own publications in journals and books. Additionally, the latest and most important books in the multidisciplinary field of neuroscience, cognition, psychology, ethics and economics are presented.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 19, 2020.A program to align short sequences that has been developed with an innovative strategy to perform fast gapped and ungapped alignment onto a reference sequence. It supports several data formats and allows the user to modulate very finely the sensitivity of the alignments. The program is designed to handle huge amounts of short reads generated by ILLUMINA, SOLiD and Roche-454 technology. The optimization of the internal data structure and a filter based on precomputed short-word alignments allow the program to skip false positives in the extension phase, thus reducing the execution time without loss of sensitivity. The final alignment is performed by dynamic programming., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

Software to collapse identical and near-identical Illumina and 454 reads (such as those from PCR clones) into single error-corrected sequences; it can process paired-end as well as single-end reads. Fulcrum is customizable and can be deployed on a single machine, a local network or a commercially available MapReduce cluster, and it has been optimized to maximize ease-of-use, cross-platform compatibility and future scalability. Sequence datasets have been collapsed by up to 71%, and the reduced number and improved quality of the resulting sequences allow assemblers to produce longer contigs while using less memory.

http://code.google.com/p/mosaik-aligner/

A reference-guided assembler comprising of two main modular programs: MosaikBuild and MosaikAligner. MosaikBuild converts various sequence formats into Mosaik?s native read format. MosaikAligner pairwise aligns each read to a specified series of reference sequences and produces BAMs as outputs. At this time, the workflow consists of supplying sequences in FASTA, FASTQ, Illumina Bustard & Gerald, or SRF file formats and producing results in the BAM format. Unlike many current read aligners, MOSAIK produces gapped alignments using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. MOSAIK is written in highly portable C++ and currently targetted for the following platforms: Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, FreeBSD, and Linux operating systems. Other platforms can easily be supported upon request. MOSAIK is multithreaded. If you have a machine with 8 processors, you can use all 8 processors to align reads faster while using the same memory footprint as when using one processor. MOSAIK supports multiple sequencing technologies. In addition to legacy technologies such as Sanger capillary sequencing, our program supports next generation technologies such as Roche 454, Illumina, AB SOLiD, and experimental support for the Helicos Heliscope.
