EEG base is a system for storage and management of EEG/ERP resources - data, metadata, tools and materials related to EEG/ERP experiments. EEG base advances electrophysiology research by enabling access to public data, tools and results of research groups. The system essentially offers the following set of features (the set of accessible features depends on a specific user role): * User authentication * Storage, update, and download of EEG/ERP data and metadata * Storage, update and download of EEG/ERP experimental design (experimental scenarios) * Storage, update and download of data related to testing subjects * Fulltext search * Sharing of knowledge and working in groups The system is based on tree layer architecture (MVC pattern) consisting of persistent layer (relational database), application layer (object oriented code, object relational mapping from persistence layer) and presentation layer (JSP). The persistence layer uses Hibernate framework; Oracle 11g database server is used to ensure the processing of large data files. Application and presentation layers are designed and implemented using Spring technology. This framework supports MVC architecture, Dependency injection and Aspect Oriented Programming. There were no significant difficulties with integration of both frameworks, Hibernate and Spring MVC. Spring Security framework is used to ensure management of authentication and user roles. Since the system is thought to be finally open to the whole EEG/ERP community it is necessary to protect EEG/ERP data and metadata, and especially personal data of testing subjects stored in the database from an unauthorized access. Then a restricted user policy is applied and user roles are introduced. The complete overview of the system features and user roles (use case diagram) is available in (Pergler 2009). Concerning the architectural layers there is a question which layer is more feasible for mapping of its structure into ontology. Currently we have studied two possibilities: * Mapping from the persistence layer (relational database) * Mapping from the application layer (object oriented code) The mapping from the application layer to an ontology includes the precedent object relational mapping provided by Hibernate framework.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented October 13, 2014. The resource has moved to the NIDDKInformation Network (dkNET) project. Contact them at info_at_dknet.org with any questions. Database of large pools of data relevant to the mission of NIDDKwith the goal of developing a community-based network for integration across disciplines to include the larger DKuniverse of diseases, investigators, and potential users. The focus is on greater use of this data with the objective of adding value by breaking down barriers between sites to facilitate linking of different datasets. To date (2013/06/10), a total of 1,195 resources have been associated with one or more genes. Of 11,580 total genes associated with resources, the ten most represented are associated with 359 distinct resources. The main method by which they currently interconnect resources between the providers is via EntrezGene identifiers. A total of 780 unique genes provide the connectivity between 3,159 resource pairs across consortia. To further increase interconnectivity, the groups have been further annotating their data with additional gene identifiers, publications, and ontology terms from selected Open Biological and Biomedical Ontologies (OBO).

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

Database of the most recent sequence updates and annotations for the T. brucei genome. New annotations are constantly being added to keep up with published manuscripts and feedback from the Trypanosomatid research community. You may search by Protein Length, Molecular Mass, Gene Type, Date, Location, Protein Targeting, Transmembrane Helices, Product, GO, EC, Pfam ID, Curation and Comments, and Dbxrefs. BLAST and other tools are available. T. brucei possesses a two-unit genome, a nuclear genome and a mitochondrial (kinetoplast) genome with a total estimated size of 35Mb/haploid genome. The nuclear genome is split into three classes of chromosomes according to their size on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, 11 pairs of megabase chromosomes (0.9-5.7 Mb), intermediate (300-900 kb) and minichromosomes (50-100 kb). The T. brucei genome contains a ~0.5Mb segmental duplication affecting chromosomes 4 and 8, which is responsible for some 75 gene duplicates unique to this species. A comparative chromosome map of the duplicons can be accessed here (PubmedID 18036214). Protozoan parasites within the species Trypanosoma brucei are the etiological agent of human sleeping sickness and Nagana in animals. Infections are limited to patches of sub-Saharan Africa where insects vectors of the Glossina genus are endemic. The most recent estimates indicate between 50,000 - 70,000 human cases currently exist, with 17 000 new cases each year (WHO Factsheet, 2006). In collaboration with GeneDB, the EuPathDB genomic sequence data and annotations are regularly deposited on TriTrypDB where they can be integrated with other datasets and queried using customized queries.
