THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on March 27, 2013. Web-based portal to connect all the constituencies in the global biobank community. The project seeks to increase the transparency and accessibility of the scientific research process by connecting researchers with an additional source of funding - microinvestments received from the broader online community. In exchange for these public investments, researchers will maintain research logs detailing the play-by-play progress made in their project, as well as publishing all of their data in a public database under a science commons license. These research projects, in turn, will serve to continually update a research-based neuroscience-based human brain & body curriculum. Biobanks are the meeting point of two major information trends in biomedical research: the generation of huge amounts of genomic and other laboratory data, and the electronic capture and integration of patient clinical records. They are comprised of large numbers of human biospecimens supplemented with clinical data. Biobanks when implemented effectively can harness the power of both genomic and clinical data and serve as a critical bridge between basic and applied research, linking laboratory to patient and getting to cures faster. As science and technology leaders work to address the many challenges facing U.S. biobanks logistical, technical, ethical, financial, intellectual property, and IT BioBank Central will serve as an accurate and timely source of knowledge and news about biorepositories and their role in research and drug development. The Web site also provides a working group venue, patient and public education programs, and a forum for international collaboration and harmonization of best practices.

http://www.rad.upenn.edu/sbia/braid/braid_web/index.html

Large-scale archive of normalized digital spatial and functional data with an analytical query mechanism. One of its many applications is the elucidation of brain structure-function relationships. BRAID stores spatially defined data from digital brain images which have been mapped into normalized Cartesian coordinates, allowing image data from large populations of patients to be combined and compared. The database also contains neurological data from each patient and a query mechanism that can perform statistical structure-function correlations. The project is developing database technology for the manipulation and analysis of 3-dimensional brain images derived from MRI, PET, CT, etc. BRAID is based on the PostgreSQL server, an object/relational DBMS, which allows a standard relational DBMS to be augmented with application-specific datatypes and operators. The BRAID project is adding operations and datatypes to support querying, manipulation and analysis of 3D medical images, including: * Image Datatypes: BRAID supports a family of 3D image datatypes, each having an abstract type and an implementation type. Abstract types include boolean (for regions of interest), integer, float, vector (for representing morphological changes), tensor (for representing derivatives and standard deviations of vector images) and color. Implementation types at present include line-segment format and voxel array. * Image Operators: BRAID supports addition of images, multiplication (which is interpreted as intersection for boolean images), coercion of an image''s abstract or implementation type to another value, and determination of volumes of regions of interest. * Statistical Operators: A chi-squared test has been added to SQL as an aggregate operator on pairs of boolean values. * Web Interface: A general-purpose Web gateway allows the results of queries that return computed images to be displayed. You can download the BRAID source code 2.0. This version is developed under postgreSQL 7.3.4., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 07, 2013. A multidisciplinary neuroscience laboratory in which basic and clinical scientists work side by side exploring neural mechanisms and models of mental and cognitive function and of neuropsychiatric illness. Experiments are performed at many levels of inquiry, from basic molecular biology of the gene to clinical examinations of patients. A major area of investigation of this laboratory is the genetic mechanisms implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and its treatment. The laboratory is organized as a multi-disciplinary team of investigators with a common mission: to identify and fully characterize basic genetic and neurobiological mechanisms of schizophrenia and related cognitive and emotional disorders. The various components of this effort are centered various different units or divisions represented by groups of investigators, at various levels of training and experience, working on related experiments. The Director of the Branch and of the Genes, Cognition and Psychosis Program (GCAP) is Daniel R. Weinberger, M.D. The CBDB is the principle research laboratory in the created (2003) Genes, Cognition, and Psychosis Program (GCAP) of the NIMH. After twelve years of residing on the pastoral grounds of St. Elizabeths Hospital, in Southeast Washington, CBDB moved back to the main NIH campus in Bethesda, Maryland in 1998. While the unique setting of St. Elizabeths is irreplaceable, we have occupied beautiful new laboratories and clinic spaces that were created for us, and we are in the mainstream of NIH life., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.
