onCore UK (RRID:SCR_004348) | onCore UK | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | No longer functioning as an independent charity, onCore UK is a national cancer biobanking organization. Our mission is to serve as an action team that informs, coordinates and develops cancer biobanking to enable research towards the discovery and development of new interventions against cancer. We also offer advice to researchers who need to collect and store samples for their own specific projects. Our main strategic objectives are: * To empower research using human biosamples to find new and effective means of preventing, detecting or treating cancer. * To improve access by researchers to the human biosamples they require for their work. * To facilitate an environment in which patients, the public, health professionals, researchers, funders of research, policy makers and regulators can work together to support cancer biobanking and the research it underpins. * To provide practical information, coordination and development for current and future people and organizations involved in cancer biobanking to ensure that they are not unnecessarily hindered in their work. * To provide an accurate and regularly updated picture of the cancer biobanking provision in the UK that will inform future decisions by funders supporting research using donated human biosamples. * To distribute the human biosamples that onCore UK has in its custody. onCore UK conducts its business within the overall scope of the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) and for the benefit of cancer research. In the past we have also worked with selected NHS hospitals in different parts of the country to collect biosamples and relevant clinical data donated by cancer patients. These biosamples are stored in a secure repository and researchers can apply to use them. We make anonymized biosamples and data available for scientifically and ethically approved research on a cost-recovery basis. onCore UK works with other cancer biobanks in the UK via the NCRI Confederation of Cancer Biobanks (CCB), and with other biobanks internationally, to improve access for researchers to larger numbers of high quality biosamples, to harmonize how biobanks work and to share expertise for the benefit of all involved. |

Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure (BBMRI) Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure (BBMRI) (RRID:SCR_004226) | BBMRI | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | BBMRI is a pan-European and internationally broadly accessible research infrastructure and a network of existing and de novo biobanks and biomolecular resources. The infrastructure will include samples from patients and healthy persons, representing different European populations (with links to epidemiological and health care information), molecular genomic resources and biocomputational tools to optimally exploit this resource for global biomedical research. During the past 3 years BBMRI has grown into a 53-member consortium with over 280 associated organizations (largely biobanks) from over 30 countries, making it the largest research infrastructure project in Europe. During the preparatory phase the concept of a functional pan-European biobank was formulated and has now been presented to Member States of the European Union and for associated states for approval and funding. BBMRI will form an interface between specimens and data (from patients and European populations) and top-level biological and medical research. This can only be achieved through a distributed research infrastructure with operational units in all participating Member States. BBMRI will be implemented under the ERIC (European Research Infrastructure Consortium) legal entity. BBMRI-ERIC foresees headquarters (central coordination) in Graz, Austria, responsible for coordination of the activities of National Nodes established in participating countries. BBMRI is in the process of submitting its application to the European Commission for a legal status under the ERIC regulation, with an expected start date at the end of 2011. Major synergism, gain of statistical power and economy of scale will be achieved by interlinking, standardizing and harmonizing - sometimes even just cross-referencing - a large variety of well-qualified, up-to date, existing and de novo national resources. The network should cover (1) major European biobanks with blood, serum, tissue or other biological samples, (2) molecular methods resource centers for human and model organisms of biomedical relevance, (3) and biocomputing centers to ensure that databases of samples in the repositories are dynamically linked to existing databases and to scientific literature as well as to statistical expertise.

Group Level Imputation of Statistic Maps Resource Report Resource Website |
Group Level Imputation of Statistic Maps (RRID:SCR_002397) | Group Level Imputation of Statistic Maps | software toolkit, software resource | A software toolkit that performs multiple imputation for group level, single sample t-tests. Whole brain group level statistic maps from fMRI rarely cover the entire brain as a result of missing data. Missingness between subjects in fMRI datasets can result from susceptibility artifacts, bounding box (acquisition parameters), and small differences in post-normalized morphology. The toolkit consists of several interactive command line scripts that guide the user to map the spatial distribution of missing data across contrast images, calculate spatial neighborhood averages that help impute values, perform conventional and multiple imputed t-statistics, save the results to brain maps, and create result tables. The toolkit contains an instruction manual (pdf), two Matlab scripts and one R-Statistics script, which depend on functions defined in the popular SPM toolbox and functions defined in the MICE package for (R). | magnetic resonance, imputation, t-test, fmri | is listed by: NeuroImaging Tools and Resources Collaboratory (NITRC) | Free, Available for download, Freely available | nlx_155768 | SCR_002397 | 2026-08-18 09:40:54 | 0 | ||||||||

UTHealth BioBank Resource Report Resource Website |
UTHealth BioBank (RRID:SCR_004570) | CCTS BioBank | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) Clinical and Translational Sciences (CCTS) BioBank employs a federated rather than a centralized model which encourages participation by sample owners who are concerned about guaranteeing their ownership of samples and sample information about patients, samples and related clinical data. In a federated model, individual sites agree on shared policies and procedures for data and sample sharing and oversight. Samples remain with and are governed by the contributing principal investigator at each site. The contributing investigator has final authority whether or not to collaborate or to release samples to qualified researchers. The goal of SLED (Sample Location and Enhanced Distribution) is to help researchers overcome two of the biggest obstacles preventing their research from beginning: 1) location of samples and related data, and 2) requesting of samples and related data. Prior to SLED''s inception the existing system was limited to providing links to samples and data and relying on phone calls to sample owners to facilitate sharing. Collaboration between the CTSA Biobank Consortium and the informatics team at the University of Texas School of Biomedical Informatics is ongoing during this effort. The initial design was constructed using best practices offered by NIH, NCI, and other biobank industry leaders to support and to improve synergy and interaction among various research efforts. Through SLED, researchers will be able to search for samples using a variety of criteria including availability, clinical data, consent criteria, patient demographics, patient diagnoses, study data, and sample type at local and national biobank sites. | clinical data |

Measure Projection Analysis (MPA) is a novel probabilistic multi-subject inference method that overcomes EEG Independent Component (IC) clustering issues by abandoning the notion of distinct IC clusters. Instead, it searches voxel by voxel for brain regions having event-related IC process dynamics that exhibit statistically significant consistency across subjects and/or sessions as quantified by the values of various EEG measures. Local-mean EEG measure values are then assigned to all such locations based on a probabilistic model of IC localization error and inter-subject anatomical and functional differences. | reusable library, eeg, meg, electrocorticography, matlab, statistical operation, surrogate data analysis, visualization, measure projection analysis |

Biobank Graz Resource Report Resource Website |
Biobank Graz (RRID:SCR_004245) | Biobank Graz | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | Biobank Graz is a non-profit central Medical University of Graz (MUG) service facility that provides the logistics and infrastructure to optimally support MUG research teams in the collection, processing and storage of biological samples and their associated data. In the course of this, special attention is given to sample and data quality and to the protection of the individual rights of patients. Samples from selected patients at the Graz LKH-University Clinical Centre, who have signed an informed consent declaration, are deposited in Biobank Graz. This means that excess tissue and blood samples are collected and placed in storage. The samples are harvested in the course of routine interventions undertaken by the different departments and institutes of the Graz LKH-University Clinical Centre and approved for use in research projects only after the completion of all necessary laboratory and histopathological analyses. No additional material is removed: in other words, there are no associated drawbacks whatsoever for the patients involved. Biobank Graz operates a quality management system according to ISO 9001:2008 and offers the following services for the processing and storage of biological samples and the handling of data: * Consistently high sample quality through the processing of samples using standardized methods in accordance with written working instructions (SOPs) * Efficient use of resources through the building of shared infrastructure and the development of optimized processes * A high degree of reliability provided by the storage of samples in 24/7 - monitored storage systems. * Processing and storage of all data in accordance with data protection legislation. Biobank Graz comprises both population-based and disease-focused collections of biological materials. It currently contains approx. 3.8 mio samples from approx. 1.2 mio patients representing a nonselected patient group characteristic of central Europe. Because the Institute of Pathology was, until 2003, the exclusive pathology service provider for major parts of the province of Styria, including its capital Graz (population approx. 1.2 mio people), samples from all human diseases, treated by surgery or diagnosed by biopsy, are included in the collection at their natural frequency of occurrence and thus represent cancers and non-cancerous diseases from all organs, and from all age groups. The scientific value of the existing tissue collection is, thus, not only determined by its size and technical homogeneity (all samples have been processed in a single institute under constant conditions for more than 20 years), but also by its population-based character. These features provide ideal opportunities for epidemiological studies and allow the validation of biomarkers for the identification of specific diseases and determination of their response to treatment. Prospectively collected tissues, blood samples and clinical data comprise, on the one hand, randomly selected samples from all diseases and patient groups to provide sufficient numbers of samples for the evaluation of the disease-specificity of any gene or biomarker. On the other hand, Biobank Graz adopts a disease-focused approach for selected diseases (such as breast, colon and liver cancers as well as some metabolic diseases) through the collection of a range of different human biological samples of highest quality and detailed clinical follow-up data. Graz Medical University established the Biobank to provide improved and sustainable access to biological samples and related (clinical) data both for its own academic research and for external research projects of academic and industrial partners. It is a major interest of the university to initiate co-operative research projects. Biological samples and data are available to external institutions performing high-quality research projects which comply with the Biobank''s ethical and legal framework according to the access rules (Contact: COO Karine Sargsyan, MD, PhD). | tissue, blood, dna, rna, serum, plasma, bodily fluid, urine, cryopreserved, formalin fixed paraffin embedded, csf, frozen, disease, population, patient, healthy, normal, clinical, patient, healthy, normal, disease, cancer, metabolic disease, breast cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, clinical data, cerebral spinal fluid |

Autism Genetic Resource Exchange Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Autism Genetic Resource Exchange (RRID:SCR_004403) | AGRE | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. A private repository of clinical and genetic information on families with autism. Genetic and clinical data are obtained from families that have more than one family member diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder. The biological samples, along with the accompanying clinical data, are made available to AGRE-approved researchers worldwide. As they become available, additional family pedigrees will be posted in the online catalog. Cell lines have been established for the majority of families in this collection and serum/plasma is available on a subset of the subjects until stocks are depleted. The diagnosis of autism has been made using the standard Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) algorithm and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Scale (ADOS-G). Detailed birth and medical histories (including basic dysmorphology assessments) on children as well as family and medical information for parents and unaffected siblings, are available for nearly all families. DNA, cell lines, serum, plasma and clinical information are made available to AGRE-approved researchers for analysis. | family registry, gene bank, genetics, autism diagnostic, interview, autism diagnostic observational scale, autism spectrum disorder, birth, clinical data, genome scan, genotypic data, medical history, pedigree, phenotypic data, dna, cell line, serum, plasma, biorepository, biospecimen, pervasive development disorder |

UCSF DNA Bank Resource Report Resource Website |
UCSF DNA Bank (RRID:SCR_004248) | UCSF DNA Bank | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | The DNA Bank accepts the clinical samples from projects that have been approved by the Committee on Human Research (CHR). Genomic DNA isolation is performed utilizing standardized and quality controlled Gentra Systems'' PureGene DNA isolation system or Qiagen Kits. The quantity and quality of the genomic DNA isolate is determined by 260/280 UV spectrophotometery. Following isolation and quality assessment, DNA can be aliquoted into a normalized concentration. The preparation of aliquots serves to allow ready distribution of DNA samples to both the client laboratory and their collaborators and to preclude excessive routine freezing and thawing of the primary DNA isolate, a practice which is well known to result in notable degradation of genomic DNA stocks. All samples are stored in alarmed Revco ultra-low freezers at -80����?����?����?��������C. All of the ultra-low freezer units utilized by the DNA Bank are monitored by a temperature sensitive alarm system that provides 24 hour oversight. In the event of a power outage, all freezers are on an emergency back-up electrical generator. |
