OpenAnesthesia.org is a wiki promoting evidence-based medicine in anesthesiology, critical care and pain management. It is divided into several, major Units (Anesthesia Text, Critical Care Manual, Practice-Changing Articles, Controversies in Anesthesia, ABA keywords, Audio/Video Archives, CME, GME, Pharmacology...), each of which is subdivided into Chapters (or in some cases, even smaller subdivisions, such as sections, individual key words, topics, points of interest, or bibliographic references). The goal of Anasthesia Text is to collect and distribute evidence-based information regarding all aspects of anesthesia. This section is similar to a traditional textbook in the broad range of topics covered, but different in that it will provide this information in the form of a wiki (i.e. anyone can edit, add, or subtract to it). OpenAneshesia.org provides anesthesia residents with GME credit and Program Directors with a tool to document core competency activities for Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-mandated learning portfolios. Residents are invited invited to read the Anesthesia & Analgesia article of the month and listen to an interview with one of the article''s authors. During the interview, the author will discuss the specifics of the article as well as general topics geared towards improving each resident''s appreciation of basic or clinical research. After listening to the podcast and reading the article, residents can answer 5 questions in order to demonstrate their mastery of the topics discussed (similar to the Anesthesia & Analgesia Continuing Medical Education (CME) section). Like the CME section, after demonstrating proficiency, a resident will receive a printable certificate that will specify which ACGME core competencies were addressed in the article and interview. The certificates can be put in each resident''s ACGME-required learning portfolio.

The Alabama Head Injury Foundation (AHIF) was founded in 1983 to increase public awareness of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and to stimulate the development of supportive services. Today, AHIF is among the largest state brain injury associations in the nation with model programs and statewide services. Its mission is to improve the quality of life for people who have survived traumatic brain injuries and for their families. Whether the injury is mild or severe the life of the injured person and their family is changed forever. The impact can be both emotionally and financially devastating. AHIF provides the information to help clients and families understand the results of injury. AHIF helps access available resources and provides services and programs which meet the unique needs of individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) as well as spinal cord injury (SCI) in certain programs.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosystems/

Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.

A volunteer, not for profit organization providing leadership in supporting research of LeioMyoSarcoma, improving treatment outcomes of those affected by this disease as well as fostering awareness in the medical community and general public. All dollars go to research and awareness. Leiomyosarcoma is a rare form of cancer, which affects about four people in every million. It spreads through the blood stream and can affect the lungs, liver, blood vessels or any other soft tissue in the body. Presently there is no cure, only remission if it can be attained, and this rare cancer can reappear anywhere and at any time. Because of its rarity, few doctors know how to treat it and it attracts little research. The National LeioMyoSarcoma Foundation hosts several Fundraising events throughout the year.

Devise better ways to prevent and treat vision loss due to amblyopia and strabismus, and to advance medical science by understanding the human visual system. Various Images, Videos and Talks related to the research are available. In the Laboratory for Visual Neuroscience at the University of California, San Francisco, we are seeking to discover how visual perception occurs in the human brain. The function of the visual system is to guide our behavior by providing an efficient means for the rapid assimilation of information from the environment. As we navigate through our surroundings, a continuous stream of light images impinges on our eyes. In the back of each eye a light-sensitive tissue, the retina, converts patterns of light energy into electrical discharges known as action potentials. These signals are conveyed along the axons of retinal ganglion cells to the lateral geniculate body, a relay nucleus in the thalamus. Most of the output of the lateral geniculate body is relayed directly to the primary visual cortex (striate cortex, V1), and then to surrounding visual association areas. To understand the function of the visual pathways, our research is focused on 5 major themes: * Organization of Primary Visual Cortex * Mapping of Extrastriate Visual Cortex * Amblyopia and Visual Development * Strabismus and Visual Suppression * The Human Visual Cortex

WSDbfetch is a webservice implementation of Dbfetch, a generic DB retrieval system that allows you to retrieve entries from various up-to-date biological databases using entry identifiers or accession numbers. It aims to provide programmatic access for sequence retrieval. This involves a service running on a SOAP server responding to remote client invocations. This is equivalent to the CGI based dbfetch service and like the CGI service a request can return a maximum of 200 entries.

Fonstein, Kogan, Osterman, Overbeek and Vonstein found the non-profit Fellowship for Interpretation of Genomes (FIG) to follow their vision of seeking advances in understanding through comparative analysis of the growing body of genomic data. The team at FIG began a new open source comparative genomics environment, the SEED. The Project to Annotate 1000 Genomes is a central goal of FIG. FIG is a nonprofit organization devoted to providing support for those analyzing genomes. It focuses on organizing the data needed to support interpretation of genomes, providing the infrastructure needed by the world community in its efforts to achieve understanding. FIG offers the key services required to architect and implement a comparative framework for interpreting genomes. In addition, we pick specific, critical problems and attempt to actively participate in the unraveling of the secrets within these amazing entities. It is only by merging the work of building infrastructure with the applications that use it that we will more deeply understand what is needed at each step.
