Banyan Biomarkers was founded in 2002 by Ron Hayes, PhD , Kevin Wang, PhD, and Nancy Denslow, PhD to create the first Point of Care (POC) Blood Test to diagnose traumatic brain injury (TBI) and to diagnose neurological diseases. Initially inspired by research conducted at the University of Florida and The Evelyn F. and William McKnight Brain Institute, Banyan Biomarkers has made significant progress in developing and clinically validating novel enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) for traumatic brain injury (TBI). Banyan scientists have created an extensive pipeline of potential biomarkers and the company has a robust intellectual property portfolio. Jackson Streeter, Banyan''s CEO, has extensive experience in development of medical devices for acute brain injury. Currently no blood test exists for use by physicians to detect the presence and severity of brain trauma. Banyan Biomarkers'' research has identified unique and proprietary biomarkers present in the patient''s blood following injury to the brain. The detection and quantification of these biomarkers may provide early indications of brain trauma essential for earlier intervention and management. Banyan Biomarkers, Inc. offers preclinical and clinical sample analyses with a proven panel of neurological, psychiatric, neurodegenerative disease, and organ toxicity biomarker assays. The company provides analytical services to a wide range of customers including pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology companies and investigators at academic research institutes.

HC2 is an EU funded project that aims to promote, support and help define future lines of research in Human Computer Confluence (HCC). HCC is the study of the intersection of HCI, Cognitive Neuroscience, VR/AR, Presence, Pervasive Computing and how they can enable new forms of sensing, perception, interaction and understanding. In a sense it is the study of the disappearing interface. HCC, Human-Computer Confluence, is an ambitious research program studying how the emerging symbiotic relation between humans and computing devices can enable radically new forms of sensing, perception, interaction, and understanding. The horizontal character of HCC makes it a fascinating and fertile interdisciplinary field, but it can also compromise its growth, with researchers scattered across disciplines and groups worldwide. To address this we are building a community of HCC researchers. There are lots of ways you can join in. Add your name to the HCC Players Map, take advantage of our Exchange Program to work with colleagues at your favorite lab, sign up for our Summer School or just follow us on Twitter and LinkedIn to see what''s happening. In order to foster interdisciplinary research and promote HCC research we have set up an Exchange Program. Students that wish to apply for financial support from our Exchange Program should follow the steps provided. The Exchange Program is open to all graduate students (Masters and PhD). A maximum of 500 Euro support will be provided per student.

https://www.nugene.org/

Collects and stores genetic (DNA) samples along with associated healthcare information from patients of Northwestern-affiliated hospitals and clinics. This resource is available to scientists to conduct groundbreaking genetic research. The information and blood samples provided will be used by researchers to examine the role genes play in the development and treatment of common diseases. The NUgene Project seeks to increase the understanding of genetic mechanisms underlying common diseases, assist in the development of DNA-based technology for diagnosis and treatment of disease, and aid physicians and other healthcare providers in the application of genetics to the practice of medicine. NUgene participants are recruited throughout the Northwestern-affiliated healthcare community in order to create an ethnically and medically diverse population for research. Participants must be 18 years of age or older and receive their medical care from a Northwestern-affiliated provider, regardless of health status. Consenting individuals complete all aspects of enrollment in a single meeting with a research coordinator. The enrollment process includes the donation of a single sample of blood and the completion of a self-administered questionnaire. Participants also sign a consent form during this encounter. The NUgene Project is an interdisciplinary project that relies on the expertise of individuals working in a variety of fields, including science, medicine, clinical research, statistics, epidemiology, and computational biology. NUgene''s multidisciplinary approach has spurred collaborations within Northwestern-affiliated institutions and with other outside institutions. This collaboration of ideas is the future of genetics and genomic research., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

Project to improve data and sample exchanges and to facilitate large scale analysis of data by improving interoperability of French Biological Resources Centres (BRC or biobanks) IT systems and biological databases. The work done in this project will be linked to other national (IBiSA, ANR, R��seau des Biobanques, Club 3C-R), European (BBMRI, ELIXIR) or international project (P3G). In the preliminary phase (2009-2010) I3-CRB has developed a directory of French Biological Resource Centres / Biobanks where one may register their French BRC or perform a search across all of them. Detail by overall data or kingdom is provided as well as many filtering options. Access to biological samples is provided by the participating BRC''''s. Biological Resources Centres (BRC or biobanks) collect annotated biological samples from various sources (human, animal, plant, bacteria...). The type of samples depends on the collection and the associated thematic (DNA, proteins, cells, tissues, blood, serum, organisms...). The aims of these centers are to collect, to store, to transform and to distribute the biological samples. They constitute a vital infrastructure for life science and health research. Goals of the French Biobanks/Biological Resource Centres: * List French biobanks and their biological collections * Improve sample exchanges * Improve the international visibility of the French biological collections MeSH terms have been integrated: Domains, diseases, and location of the disease (Anatomy). Collections/species are based on NCBI Taxonomy.
