A commercial organization with expertise and multiple departments that focus on both fish physiology and molecular cell biology. ZF-pharma has developed patented technology for the automated in vivo high-throughput screening of pharmaceutical drug candidates against diseases. They seek industrial partners that are interested in obtaining a license for this technology or, alternatively, would prefer to outsource screening of TB drugs to ZF-pharma. NewCatch BV has developed a tool for use in sustainable aquaculture. The tool will first be used for reproduction of the highly valued fish species eel, pikeperch and sole. They seek industrial / aquaculture partners interested in obtaining a license for ZF-implants in other fish species. NewCatch BV carries out fish reproductive research, for instance European eel (Anguilla anguilla), exploring maturation and reproduction. ZF-Genomics offers multiple sequencing services, including mRNAseq and microRNA analysis and de novo and reference genome assemblies. In addition they also offer the bioinformatics services that are needed to make sense of the sequence data. In addition, they perform Next generation sequencing tasks for (inter)national research project partners and for external customers.

http://www.genepaint.org/MapP7_01.htm

Abbreviated reference atlas for the P56 mouse. All sections were nissl stained and digitized. To assist in the initial identification of sites of gene expression sites, maps of brains are available for E15.5, P7 and the adult. These maps depict the boundaries of major brain regions (cortex, thalamus, striatum, globus pallidus, ventral striatum, septum, basal forebrain, hippocampus, midbrain, pons, medulla, cerebellum) and also show the more prominent nerve tracts. Maps are most efficiently used by placing the window depicting the map of interest next to the gene expression image. Browsing between planes of sectioning is permitted thus allowing the most appropriate plane to be selected. The annotation of anatomical details such as brain nuclei is currently beyond the scope of the GenePaint database. Hence, such information on the anatomy of the brain and embryo should be obtained from published atlases of mouse anatomy (Kaufman, 1995; Paxinos and Franklin, 2001; Jacobowitz and Abbott, 1997; Schambra et al., 1992; Valverde1998).

http://swissbiobank.com/

With expertise in the preservation of biological specimens, Swiss Biobank is a biobank of cell therapy products (stem cells, progenitor). Strategically located in Suisse Romande, the center is accessible 7J/7J, 365 days / year. The laboratories and technology platforms are tailored to international standards. Service is prompt, courteous, and responsive to your needs. The first opportunity to harvest adult stem cells, which is the only type at Swiss Biobank, occurs just after the birth of a baby. The umbilical cord blood and placenta are rich in hematopoietic stem cells and can regenerate all cells in the bloodstream. The cord and placenta tissues themselves contain mesenchymal cells that can be used for the regeneration of connective tissue. The standardized procedures for collecting cord blood units are made ����??����??by the medical staff of the hospital / clinic according to international standards. The sample is transported by a courier Swiss Medical Biobank in which it is prepared and cryo-preserved by qualified personnel within 24 hours. In the case of public biobanking, cells, tissues, organs are donated and can be used with consent of the donor, a third person for transplantation, or as part of clinical research. The HLA (Human Leukocyte Antigen) is a group of proteins on the cell surface, and specific to each individual. This allows the immune system to distinguish our own cells for foreign elements (pathogens) that are likely to be attacked. Histocompatibility between the donor and recipient is of primary importance in organ transplantation, tissues and / or cells, to minimize the chances of rejection. There is one chance in four that two siblings have the same HLA code.

http://ccr.coriell.org/Sections/Collections/NIGMS/?SsId=8

Highly characterized cell lines and high quality DNA for cell and genetic research representing a variety of disease states, chromosomal abnormalities, apparently healthy individuals and many distinct human populations. The NIGMS Repository contains more than 10,600 cell lines, primarily fibroblasts and transformed lymphoblasts, and over 5,500 DNA samples. The NIGMS Repository has a major emphasis on heritable diseases and chromosomally aberrant cell lines. In addition, it contains a large collection dedicated to understanding human variation that includes samples from populations around the world, the CEPH collection, the Polymorphism Discovery Resource, and many apparently healthy controls. Human induced pluripotent stem cell lines, many of which were derived from NIGMS Repository fibroblasts, have recently become available through the NIGMS Repository. Sample donation facilitates all areas of research by making available well-characterized materials to any qualified researcher who might have otherwise been unable to invest the time and resources to collect needed samples independently. Donations to the Repository have created a resource of unparalleled scope. Samples from the collection have been used in more than 5,500 publications and are distributed to scientists in more than 50 countries. This resource is continuously expanding to support new directions in human genetics.

http://dctd.cancer.gov/

Division of NCI that takes prospective cancer detection and treatment leads, facilitates their paths to clinical application, and expedites the initial and subsequent large-scale testing of new agents, biomarkers, imaging tests, and other therapeutic interventions (radiation, surgery, immunotherapy) in patients. DCTD, like all of NCI, supports many programs that could not be done without government funding - investigators supported by the division engage in scientifically sound, high-risk research that may yield great benefits for patients with cancer, but are too difficult or risky for industry or academia to pursue. This includes a particular emphasis on the development of distinct molecular signatures for cancer, refined molecular assays, and state-of-the-art imaging techniques that will guide oncologic therapy in the future. The division has eight major programs that work together to bring unique molecules, diagnostic tests, and therapeutic interventions from the laboratory bench to the patient bedside: * Cancer Diagnosis Program * Cancer Imaging Program * Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program * Developmental Therapeutics Program * Radiation Research Program * Translational Research Program * Biometrics Research Branch * Office of Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine

http://www.roslin.ed.ac.uk/about-roslin/

The world''s largest collection of tick cell lines, enabling scientists to carry out advanced research. This biobank is establishing a collection of all the continuous cell lines derived from ixodid and argasid ticks of medical and veterinary importance available worldwide now and in future. Ticks are blood feeding arthropods which transmit many human and animal diseases. Research into prevention and cure of these diseases, which are caused by viruses, bacteria and protozoa, is greatly assisted by the use of cell culture systems which enable study of both how tick cells function, and how and why ticks transmit these disease-causing pathogens. Cell lines will always be shipped to recipient laboratories as growing cultures, since we cannot guarantee successful resuscitation of frozen stabilates. Tick cells in culture can tolerate the range of temperatures experienced during transit by air for up to a week. Training: We will provide training in tick cell line care and maintenance. This is an essential component of successful transfer of tick cells to, and their establishment in, laboratories with little or no previous experience of tick cell culture. Recipient scientists (preferably the person who will actually look after the cells) can visit the biobank for between 2 days and 2 weeks, depending on their level of previous experience, to be trained in the specific approach and methods for tick cell cultivation. Establishment of new cell lines: In response to requests and on receipt of suitable starting material (engorged female or moulting nymphal ticks), we will attempt to establish new cell lines from tick species or strains which are not already represented in the collection. Deposition of new tick cell lines: We invite researchers anywhere in the world who have established new tick cell lines to deposit samples for safekeeping free of charge and, if requested, for distribution alongside the existing biobank portfolio.
