http://penglab.janelia.org/proj/v3d/V3D/About_V3D.html

V3D is a handy, fast, and versatile 3D/4D/5D Image Visualization & Analysis System for Bioimages & Surface Objects. It also provides many unique functions, is Open Source, supports a very simple and powerful plugin interface and thus can be extended & enhanced easily. V3D-Neuron is a powerful 3D neuron reconstruction, visualization, and editing software built on top of V3D. Both V3D and V3D-Neuron have recently been published in Nature Biotechnology (April, 2010), and Highlighted in Nature Methods (May, 2010), and Science News (April, 2010), etc. V3D is a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, and Windows) tool for visualizing large-scale (gigabytes, and 64-bit data) 3D image stacks and various surface data. It is also a container of powerful modules for 3D image analysis (cell segmentation, neuron tracing, brain registration, annotation, quantitative measurement and statistics, etc) and data management. This makes V3D suitable for various bioimage informatics applications, and a nice platform to develop new 3D image analysis algorithms for high-throughput processing. In short, V3D streamlines the workflow of visualization-assisted analysis. In the latest V3D development, it can render 5D (spatial-temporal) data directly in 3D volume-rendering mode; it supports convenient and interactive local and global 3D views at different scales. It even has a Matlab file IO toolbox. A user can now write his/her own plugins to take advantage of the V3D platform very easily.

http://www.research.va.gov/programs/tissue_banking/als/

A human tissue bank that collects, processes, stores and gives out research specimens for future scientific studies. Presently, the VABBB is obtaining neurologic tissue specimens from Veterans who suffer from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other illnesses that affect Veterans, along with relevant clinical data, essential for research. Currently, neither the cause nor prevention of ALS is known. Medical researchers are currently examining environmental, toxic, genetic, traumatic, medical, and occupational influences as possible contributors to the development and progression of ALS. Veterans have a higher risk of developing ALS compared with non-Veterans; however, the reasons for this higher risk are currently unknown. Any Veteran with ALS in the U.S. may enroll in the VABBB.

http://www.med.unc.edu/bric/ideagroup/free-softwares/abeat-a-toolbox-for-consistent-analysis-of-longitudinal-adult-brain-mri

A 4D adult brain extraction and analysis toolbox with graphical user interfaces to consistently analyze 4D adult brain MR images. Single-time-point images can also be analyzed. Main functions of the software include image preprocessing, 4D brain extraction, 4D tissue segmentation, 4D brain labeling, ROI analysis. Linux operating system (64 bit) is required. A computer with 8G memory (or more) is recommended for processing many images simultaneously. The graphical user interfaces and overall framework of the software are implemented in MATLAB. The image processing functions are implemented with the combination of C/C++, MATLAB, Perl and Shell languages. Parallelization technologies are used in the software to speed up image processing.

http://chronux.org

Open-source software package for the analysis of neural data. Chronux routines may be employed in the analysis of both point process and continuous data, ranging from preprocessing, exploratory and confirmatory analysis. The current release is implemented as a MATLAB library. Chronux offers several routines for computing spectra and coherences for both point and continuous processes. In addition, it also offers several general purpose routines that were found useful such as a routine for extracting specified segments from data, or binning spike time data with bins of a specified size. Since the data can be continuous valued, point process times, or point processes that are binned, methods that apply to all these data types are given in routines whose names end with ''''c'''' for continuous, ''''pb'''' for binned point processes, and ''''pt'''' for point process times. Thus, mtspectrumc computes the spectrum of continuous data, mtspectrumpb computes a spectrum for binned point processes, and mtspectrumpt compute spectra for data consisting of point process times. Hybrid routines are also available and similarly named - for instance coherencycpb computes the coherency between continuous and binned point process data.
