Evolving portal that will provide interactive tools and resources to allow researchers, clinicians, and students to discover, analyze, and visualize what is known about the brain's organization, and what the evidence is for that knowledge. This project has a current experimental focus: creating the first brainwide mesoscopic connectivity diagram in the mouse. Related efforts for the human brain currently focus on literature mining and an Online Brain Atlas Reconciliation Tool. The primary goal of the Brain Architecture Project is to assemble available knowledge about the structure of the nervous system, with an ultimate emphasis on the human CNS. Such information is currently scattered in research articles, textbooks, electronic databases and datasets, and even as samples on laboratory shelves. Pooling the knowledge across these heterogeneous materials - even simply getting to know what we know - is a complex challenge that requires an interdisciplinary approach and the contributions and support of the greater community. Their approach can be divided into 4 major thrusts: * Literature Curation and Text Mining * Computational Analysis * Resource Development * Experimental Efforts

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 9, 2023. Connectomes repository to facilitate the analysis of connectome data by providing a unified front for connectomics research. With a focus on Electron Microscopy (EM) data and various forms of Magnetic Resonance (MR) data, the project aims to make state-of-the-art neuroscience open to anybody with computer access, regardless of knowledge, training, background, etc. Open science means open to view, play, analyze, contribute, anything. Access to high resolution neuroanatomical images that can be used to explore connectomes and programmatic access to this data for human and machine annotation are provided, with a long-term goal of reconstructing the neural circuits comprising an entire brain. This project aims to bring the most state-of-the-art scientific data in the world to the hands of anybody with internet access, so collectively, we can begin to unravel connectomes. Services: * Data Hosting - Their Bruster (brain-cluster) is large enough to store nearly any modern connectome data set. Contact them to make your data available to others for any purpose, including gaining access to state-of-the-art analysis and machine vision pipelines. * Web Viewing - Collaborative Annotation Toolkit for Massive Amounts of Image Data (CATMAID) is designed to navigate, share and collaboratively annotate massive image data sets of biological specimens. The interface is inspired by Google Maps, enhanced to allow the exploration of 3D image data. View the fork of the code or go directly to view the data. * Volume Cutout Service - RESTful API that enables you to select any arbitrary volume of the 3d database (3ddb), and receive a link to download an HDF5 file (for matlab, C, C++, or C#) or a NumPy pickle (for python). Use some other programming language? Just let them know. * Annotation Database - Spatially co-registered volumetric annotations are compactly stored for efficient queries such as: find all synapses, or which neurons synapse onto this one. Create your own annotations or browse others. *Sample Downloads - In addition to being able to select arbitrary downloads from the datasets, they have also collected a few choice volumes of interest. * Volume Viewer - A web and GPU enabled stand-alone app for viewing volumes at arbitrary cutting planes and zoom levels. The code and program can be downloaded. * Machine Vision Pipeline - They are building a machine vision pipeline that pulls volumes from the 3ddb and outputs neural circuits. - a work in progress. As soon as we have a stable version, it will be released. * Mr. Cap - The Magnetic Resonance Connectome Automated Pipeline (Mr. Cap) is built on JIST/MIPAV for high-throughput estimation of connectomes from diffusion and structural imaging data. * Graph Invariant Computation - Upload your graphs or streamlines, and download some invariants. * iPad App - WholeSlide is an iPad app that accesses utilizes our open data and API to serve images on the go.

CAMO (Cell Adhesion Molecule Ontology) is a set of standard vocabulary that provide a hierarchical description of cell adhesion molecules and their functions. We compiled a list for cell adhesion molecules by integrating Gene Ontology annotations, domain structure information, and keywords query against NCBI Entrez Gene annotations. Totally 496 unique human genes were identified to function as cell adhesion molecules, which is by far the most comprehensive dataset including cadherin, immunoglobulin/FNIII, integrin, neurexin, neuroligan, and catenin families. CAMO was constructed as a directed acyclic graph (DAG) using DAG-Edit to input, manage and update data. We annotated each term with name, definition and source references, as well as the relationship to other terms, based on manual reviews of domain architecture and functional annotations. If vertices represent terms and the relationships between terms are represented by edges, the terms in a DAG can be connected via a directed graph without cycles. CAMO thus provides a hierarchical description of functions of CAMs with five top-level categories: CAM gene families, CAM genetics, CAM regulation, CAM expression and CAM diseases. Each top-level term is further divided into several categories to describe the functions in detail.

A large multi-site pediatric MRI and genetics data resource to facilitate studies of the genomic landscape of the developing human brain. It includes information about the developing mental and emotional functions of the children to understand the genetic basis of individual differences in brain structure and connectivity, cognition, and personality. Investigators on the project are studying 1400 children between the ages of 3 and 20 years so that links between genetic variation and developing patterns of brain connectivity can be examined. Investigators interested in the effects of a particular gene will be able to search the database for any brain areas or connections between areas that differ as a function of variation in a particular gene, and also to determine if the genes appear to affect the course of brain development at some point during childhood. A data exploration tool has been created for mapping and analyzing MRI data sets collected for PING and related developmental studies. Approved investigators will be able to view raw image sets and derived 3D brain maps of MRI and DTI data, conduct hypothesis testing, and graph brain area measures as they change across the time course of development. PING Cores * Coordinating Core: Functions include project management, screening of participants and maintaining the database * Neuroimaging Core: applying a standardized high-resolution structural MRI protocol involving 3-D T1-weighted scans, a T2-weighted volume, and a set of diffusion-weighted scans with multiple b values and diffusion directions, scans to estimate MRI relaxation rates, and gradient echo EPI scans for resting state fMRI. Importantly, adaptive motion compensation, using ����??PROMO����??, a novel real-time motion correction algorithm will be used. Specific PING protocols for each scanner manufacturer: ** PING MRI Protocol - GE ** PING MRI Protocol - Philips ** PING MRI Protocol - Siemens * Assessment Core: Cognitive assessments for the PING project are conducted using the NIH Toolbox for Cognition. * Genomics Core: functions as a central repository for receipt of saliva samples collected for each study participant. Once received, samples are catalogued, maintained, and DNA is extracted using state-of-the-field laboratory techniques. Ultimately, genome-wide genotyping is performed on the extracted DNA using the Illumina Human660W-Quad BeadChip. PING involves 10 sites throughout the country including UCSD, University of Hawaii, Scripps Genomics, UCLA, UC Davis, Kennedy Krieger Institute/Johns Hopkins, Sacker Institute/Cornell University, University of Massachusetts, Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard, and Yale. Families who may want to participate in the study, or others who want to know more about it, may email questions to ping (at) ucsd.edu.
