Foldit is a revolutionary new multiplayer online computer game that engages non-scientists in solving hard prediction problems, enabling you to contribute to important scientific research. Foldit players interact with protein structures using direct manipulation tools and user-friendly versions of algorithms from the Rosetta structure prediction methodology, while they compete and collaborate to optimize the computed energy. Here are the basic principles to keep in mind when folding proteins. Your score on each protein is based on how well you do with these three things: # Pack the protein: The smaller the protein, the better. More precisely, you want to avoid empty spaces (voids) in the structure of the protein where water molecules can get inside. So you want the atoms in the protein to be as close together as possible. Certain structures, such as sheets, will even connect together with hydrogen bonds if you line them up right and get them close together. This is also good. Key word: Compact. # Hide the hydrophobics: Hydrophobics are the sidechains that don't want to be touching water, just like oil or wax. Since most proteins float around in water, you want to keep the hydrophobics (orange sidechains) surrounded by as many atoms as possible so the water won't get to them. The other side of this rule is that hydrophilics (blue sidechains) do want to be touching water, so they should be exposed as much as possible. Key word: Buried. # Clear the clashes: Two atoms can't occupy the same space at the same time. If you've folded a protein so two sidechains are too close together, your score will go down a lot. This is represented by a red spiky ball (clash) where the two sidechains are intersecting. If there are clashes, you know something is wrong with your protein. So make sure everything is far enough apart. Key word: Apart. The current series of Science Puzzles, the Grand Challenges, are meant to generate the evidence needed to prove that human protein folders can be more effective than computers at certain aspects of protein structure prediction. That's what all the puzzles in Foldit are about right now: predicting the structure of a protein based on its amino acid sequence. The three rules mentioned above describe the characteristics of correct protein structures.

A for-profit health data-sharing platform that can transform the way patients manage their conditions, change the way industry conducts research and improve patient care. PatientsLikeMe aligns patient and industry interests through data-sharing partnerships. They work with trusted nonprofit, research and industry Partners who use this health data to improve products, services and care for patients. They take the information patients share about their experience with the disease and sell it to their partners (i.e., companies that are developing or selling products to patients). These products may include drugs, devices, equipment, insurance, and medical services. Except for the restricted personal information entered when registering for the site, participants should expect that every piece of information submitted (even if it is not currently displayed) may be shared with their partners and any member of PatientsLikeMe, including other patients. They do not rent, sell or share personally identifiable information for marketing purposes or without explicit consent. Because they believe in transparency, they tell members exactly what they do and do not do with their data. Patients have the opportunity to share both personal stories and health data about their conditions to help uncover great ideas and new knowledge. By sharing information on the site, they can put their disease experiences in context and find answers to the questions they have. Every partnership we develop must bring them closer to aligning patient and industry interests. Their end goal is improved patient care and quality of life.

Neuroflocks is an unique tool to navigate tweets from the past SfN meeting and find out the hot topics tweeted during the conference (SfN-2010). We have collected all tweets using the hashtag #sfn10 and made them browsable via a simple visual search interface. Type in the word you want to search for and only tweets containing that word will light up! You can click on single tweets, browse the tweet content, click on the Twitter user and find new Neuroscience-enthusiast twitterers! You can also find out what was really HOT during the conference (Re-Tweeted tweets, RT have been color coded). Moreover, the tweets follow a time gradient from the inside out: the spiral's center contains tweets from the beginning of the meeting while tweets on the outside of the spiral were tweeted at the end of the meeting. Enhanced versions of neuroflocks are currently under development !!!

A collaboration of international pharmaceutical companies, public health experts, civil society organizations, and U.S., European, and other regulatory authorities to speed the development of new and improved drug regimens for tuberculosis (TB). Its goals include creating innovative tools, including TB data standards and databases. The Initiative is built around four operating arms: Regulatory Science Consortium, Drug Development Coalition, Research Resources Group, and Drug Susceptibility Testing Group. The focus of the consortium is to: * Develop and integrate data standards * Qualify biomarkers through the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) / European Medicines Authority (EMA) * Develop quantitative disease progression (natural history) models * Create disease response metrics, develop target product profiles and supporting assays, and * Develop new pharmacokinetic/dynamic measures of drug interactions Accomplishments include: * Engaged the FDA, which has released updated regulatory guide-lines for developing new TB drug regimens with efforts to create a more favorable environment for combination regimen development * TB Alliance launched the first-ever clinical trial of a novel combination drug regimen for TB, validating the approach to regimen development set forth by CPTR, and is moving to a phase III clinical trial named STAND. * Developed and published TB data standards in collaboration with the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium (CDISC). * Expanded scope to include the CPTR Rapid Drug Susceptibility Testing (RDST) Consortium and an expanded Modeling and Simulation development program. * Pursued several regulatory pathways with the FDA for the Hollow Fiber System Model for TB (HFS-TB). * Submitted a dossier to the EMA on the HFS-TB for qualification opinion consideration. * Submitted a "briefing book" to the FDA via the pre-IND process to review CPTR's data analysis plan and data inventory for liquid culture, with emphasis on time-to-positivity, as a quantitative measure of long-term outcome. * Initiated planning to develop a database supporting the RDST Consortium's goal to develop a rapid TB drug susceptibility test.
