The NCGC Pharmaceutical Collection (NPC) is a comprehensive, publically-accessible collection of approved and investigational drugs for high-throughput screening that provides a valuable resource for both validating new models of disease and better understanding the molecular basis of disease pathology and intervention. The NPC has already generated several useful probes for studying a diverse cross section of biology, including novel targets and pathways. NCGC provides access to its set of approved drugs and bioactives through the Therapeutics for Rare and Neglected Diseases (TRND) program and as part of the compound collection for the Tox21 initiative, a collaborative effort for toxicity screening among several government agencies including the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the National Toxicology Program (NTP), the US Food and Drugs Administration (FDA), and the NCGC. Of the nearly 2750 small molecular entities (MEs) that have been approved for clinical use by US (FDA), EU (EMA), Japanese (NHI), and Canadian (HC) authorities and that are amenable to HTS screening, we currently possess 2,400 as part of our screening collection. The NPC resource currently consists of (i) the physical collection suitable for high throughput screening (HTS) and (ii) the informatics browser and database. Putting together the physical collection has been surprisingly challenging in terms of the time and effort required in the informatics, compound management and synthetic chemistry related activities required for this endeavor. We provide access to the NPC screening library through collaboration. Please contact our Scientific Director Dr. Chris Austin for additional information. The other half of the NPC resource is the NPC browser. This is a self-contained software that is actively developed and maintained by the informatics group to provide electronic access to the NPC content. The latest version of the NPC browser for various platforms can be downloaded.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on August 17, 2011. The US government contract funding the National Stem Cell Bank (NSCB) ended on February 28, 2010.
A repository for the pluripotent stem cells lines listed on the NIH Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Registry. These cells were derived prior to August 2001 using excess IVF embryos and were eligible for use in federally funded research under previous presidential policy. The eligibility of these lines will not be known until the NIH issues final stem cell guidelines in July 2009. The goal of the NSCB is to grow, characterize and distribute the cell lines listed on the registry, and to provide comprehensive technical support to stem cell researchers around the world.
Starting February 2, 2010, these materials can be ordered from the Wisconsin International Stem Cell Bank (the WISC Bank) operated by WiCell Research Institute, for delivery after February 28, 2010.

https://sfari.org/resources/simons-simplex-collection

Repository of genetic samples from approximately 3,000 families, each of which has one child affected with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and parents unaffected with ASD. A central database characterizing all of the study subjects is available to any qualified researcher and biospecimens are freely available to SFARI grant holders, and to other researchers on a modest fee-for-use basis. Each genetic sample will have an associated collection of data that provides a precise characterization of the individual (phenotype). Rigorous phenotyping will maximize the value of the resource for a wide variety of future research projects into the causes and mechanisms of autism. The Simons Simplex Collection is operated by SFARI in collaboration with twelve university-affiliated research clinics.

The Central England Haemato-Oncology Research Biobank stores excess material from oncology samples referred for diagnostic testing and disease monitoring at the West Midlands Regional Genetics Laboratory (WMRGL). The bank is housed within the WMRGL. Types of material stored include viable cells, fixed cell suspensions, DNA, RNA / cDNA, and plasma. The material is made available to all cancer research groups both locally and nationally. Excess sample (mainly from blood and bone marrow) is stored from diagnostic patient material and from samples received throughout their disease course. The WMRGL serves a population of about 5.5 million and is the largest UK NHS genetic Lab. Due to the large patient population CEHRB is able to collate sufficient research material from all classifications of neoplastic haematological disorders including those that are rare.

The general goal is to achieve a deeper understanding of natural image statistics because from this knowledge it should be possible to explain the behavior of the visual cortex and propose new alternatives in a number of applications in image processing and computer vision in which the basic problem is the choice of an appropriate signal representation. The range of basic and applied topics in which we are currently working include: * Mathematical models of human vision * Statistical image models * Image distortion metrics * Image coding * Motion estimation * Video coding * Image restoration * Color representation

As an umbrella organization for medical research networks, the TMF is responsible for improving the organization and infrastructure of medical research in networked structures. It supports researchers at the various locations in jointly identifying and solving problems of an organizational, legal and technical nature that are often not associated with the particular clinical problem or research focus. The network not only focuses on legal and ethical frameworks for networked medical research but also on the development of IT infrastructure, quality management activities for science-initiated trials and questions on the intermeshing of research and patient care. Under the umbrella organization of the TMF, expert opinions, studies, concepts, requirements specifications, services and tools are created. The products of the cooperation within the TMF are available to the research community. The aims of joint work in the TMF are: * Improvement of medical research in terms of quality, organization and cooperation * Solution of questions spanning networked medical research, e.g. on the collection, processing and exchange of research data * Clarification of the legal and ethical foundations for performing medical research * Issues of quality assurance and quality management * Development and extension of efficient IT infrastructures and their implementation in cross-institutional networked structures * Realization of cross-location solutions * Contributions to sustainable and efficient health research by means of the improved transfer of research findings to patient care

The Stem Cell Research and Regenerative Medicine''s Tissue Culture Core provides cells for research use within the department, as well as for distribution to other facilities. The core obtains hMSCs from bone marrow donor samples and expands these cells for research use. The hMSC''s are also characterized for bone, fat and cartilage differentiation, and are stored on site for use. The Tissue Culture Core also handles the expansion and characterization of mouse and rat MSC''s. The animal cells are cultured in a separate area, and never interact with human derived cells. We also have a supply of hMSC''s marked with GFP+, Mito Red and Mito Blue available.

The Beckman Institute BNMC brings together researchers from many disciplines at Caltech to address problems in the mechanistic modeling of coupled genomic, intercellular and intracellular processes. It represents an attempt to encourage closer interaction and collaboration between groups in Biology, Control and Dynamical Systems, and the Center for Advanced Computing Research. The focus of BNMC is biochemical phenomena occurring within and between cells, in particular the mechanistic modeling of molecular networks of all kinds (e.g., transcriptional, regulatory, metabolic, signal transduction, mechanical, etc.) with and without spatial variation and intercellular communication. BNMC is formed as a coordinated effort aimed at (1) applying existing capabilities to collaboratively solve biological modeling problems that arise in answering scientific questions in Caltech laboratories, (2) exploring a diversity of novel approaches in order to achieve fundamental advances necessary to address the classes of modeling problems biologists want to solve, and (3) organizing projects to better share human experience as well as common infrastructure to avoid duplication and maximize solution interoperability.
