https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00014001

The NIMH-funded Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) Study was a nationwide public health-focused clinical trial that compared the effectiveness of older (first available in the 1950s) and newer (available since the 1990s) antipsychotic medications used to treat schizophrenia. These newer medications, known as atypical antipsychotics, cost roughly 10 times as much as the older medications. CATIE is the largest, longest, and most comprehensive independent trial ever done to examine existing therapies for this disease. Schizophrenia is a brain disorder characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and disordered thinking. The course of schizophrenia is variable, but usually is recurrent and chronic, often causing severe disability. Previous studies have shown that taking antipsychotic medications consistently is far more effective than taking no medicine and that the drugs are necessary to manage the disease. The aim of the CATIE study was to determine which medications provide the best treatment for schizophrenia.

http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/alea

A computational software toolbox for allele-specific (AS) epigenomics analysis. It incorporates allelic variation data within existing resources, allowing for the identification of significant associations between epigenetic modifications and specific allelic variants in human and mouse cells. It provides a customizable pipeline of command line tools for AS analysis of next-generation sequencing data (ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, etc.) that takes the raw sequencing data and produces separate allelic tracks ready to be viewed on genome browsers. ALEA takes advantage of the available genomic resources for human (The 1000 Genomes Project Consortium) and mouse (The Mouse Genome Project) to reconstruct diploid in-silico genomes for human or hybrid mice under study. Then, for each accompanying ChIP-seq or RNA-seq dataset, it generates two Wiggle track format (WIG) files from short reads aligned differentially to each haplotype.

https://nfregistry.patientcrossroads.org/

A patient registry to identify people with neurofibromatosis (NF) who are interested in participating in clinical trials, as well as determining the commonality of specific characteristics of NF. The NF Registry is committed to secure methodologies and pioneering research that will lead to improving the health and well-being of individuals and families affected by NF. This registry has been created to collect data on large numbers of people with NF. This has never existed before and will help: * Identify people who may be eligible for clinical trials or other research studies being conducted in the field of NF. New clinical trials are launched each year yet challenges identifying participants too often mean that these studies finish late or never really get started. Today, 80 percent of trials fail to recruit enough volunteers within planned timelines. Under enrollment is one of the most significant problems facing NF drug development. Together, we can solve it. * Determine the commonality of specific NF characteristics. This will help researchers and doctors devise better ways to care for people with NF If you or your child has been diagnosed with neurofibromatosis (NF) please join the NF Registry today. It''s quick, it''s easy, and it matters. The key to treatments lies within you researchers can''t deliver treatments without committed volunteers.

http://gocognitive.net/

Free access to materials for students, educators, and researchers in cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience. Currently there are about a dozen demonstrations and more than 30 videos that were produced over the last two years. The basic philosophy of goCognitive rests on the assumption that easy and free access to high-quality content will improve the learning experience of students and will enable more students to enjoy the field of cognitive psychology and cognitive neuroscience. There are a few parts of goCognitive that are only available to registered users who have provided their email address, but all of the online demonstrations and videos are accessible to the everyone. Both new demonstrations and new video interviews will continually be added to the site. Manuals for each of the demonstration are being created and available as pdf files for download. Most of the demonstrations are pretty straightforward - but in some cases, especially if you would like to collect data - it might be a good idea to look over the manual. There are different ways in which you can get involved and contribute to the site. Your involvement can range from sending us feedback about the demonstrations and videos, suggestions for new materials, or the simple submission of corrections, to the creation or publication of demonstrations and videos that meet our criteria. Down the road we will make the submission process easier, but for now please contact swerner (at) uidaho dot edu for more information. NSF student grant Undergraduate students can apply through goCognitive for an $1,100 grant to co-produce a new video interview with a leading researcher in the field of cognitive neuroscience. The funding has been provided by the National Science Foundation.

http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/

An efficient software tool to utilize update-to-date information to functionally annotate genetic variants detected from diverse genomes (including human genome hg18, hg19, as well as mouse, worm, fly, yeast and many others). Given a list of variants with chromosome, start position, end position, reference nucleotide and observed nucleotides, ANNOVAR can perform: 1. gene-based annotation. 2. region-based annotation. 3. filter-based annotation. 4. other functionalities.

http://brainhealthregistry.org/

A website aimed at recruiting and assessing subjects for all types of neuroscience studies with the internet. The hope is to accelerate various types of observational studies and clinical trials, and also reduce costs. They are interested in having people, including healthy subjects of all ages, join the registry. Joining only takes a few minutes. The web-based project is designed to speed up cures for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other brain disorders. It uses online questionnaires and online neuropsychological tests (which are very much like online brain games).
