THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. A built-in toolbox for the tracing and analysis of neuroanatomy from nanoscale (high-resolution) imaging. It is a project under ongoing development. The name is originating by merging the words Neuron + reconstruct. The working concept is organized in filters applied successively on the image stack to be processed (pipeline). Currently, the focus of the software is the extraction of detailed neuroanatomical profiles from nanoscale imaging techniques, such as the Serial Block-Face Scanning Electron Microscopy (SBFSEM). The techniques applied, however, may be used to analyze data from various imaging methods and neuronal versatility. The underlying idea of Neurostruct is the use of slim interfaces/filters allowing an efficient use of new libraries and data streaming. The image processing follows in voxel pipelines by using the CUDA programming model and all filters are programmed in a datasize-independent fashion. Thus Neurostruct exploits efficiency and datasize-independence in an optimal way. Neurostruct is based on the following main principles: * Image processing in voxel pipelines using the general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPU) programming model. * Efficient implementation of these interfaces. Programming model and image streaming that guarantees a minimal performance penalty. * Datasize-independent programming model enabling independence from the processed image stack. * Management of the filters and IO data through shell scripts. The executables (filters) are currently managed through shell scripts. The application focuses currently in the tracing of single-biocytin filled cells using SBFSEM imaging. : * Extraction of neuroanatomical profiles: 3D reconstrution and 1D skeletons of the imaged neuronal structure. * Complete tracing: Recognition of the full neuronal structure using envelope techniques, thereby remedying the problem of spines with thin necks of an internal diameter approaching the SBFSEM resolution. * Separation (Coloring) of subcellular structures: Algorithms for the separation of spines from their root dendritic stem. * Evaluation and analysis of the imaged neuroanatomy: Calculation of the dendritic and spine membrane''s surface, spine density and variation, models of dendrites and spines

The Centre d''Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) is a research laboratory, the main activities of which are the setting up, storage, processing and distribution of DNA collections for the identification of genetic factors conferring susceptibility to complex disorders. These collections are established in partnership and full collaboration with external French or international research groups. The Foundation currently hosts the CEPH reference panel, the HGDP panel (Human genome Diversity Cell Line Panel) and several collections amounting mid-2008 to more than 250 000 samples. The goal of CEPH is to understand complex multifactorial disorders necessitates the establishment of structures facilitating access to large and integrated collection of individuals, characterized by a large number of variables emanating from different technologies and platforms. To achieve this goal, CEPH facilitates the setting up of integrated analyses combining clinical, genetic and environmental data, for the identification of susceptibility factors to complex multifactorial disorders Additionally, CEHP allows the reception, storage, processing and distribution of biological sample collections. At the same time, it promotes and participates in the design and setting up of genetic studies: - in partnership and full collaboration with external research groups - giving access to a large number of variables - in a sufficient number of subjects - allowing large scale integrated analyses

Special interest group that brings together program officers who have a shared interest in applying modeling and analysis methods to biomedical systems. The meetings are formatted to facilitate an open discussion of what is currently being supported, and for planning future directions in these areas. At each meeting, time is allotted to hear focused presentations from one or two participants to discuss issues relating to modeling and analysis across the government agencies. Discussions also occur online, and participants are informed of talks, conferences and other activities of interest to the group. IMAG recognized that the modeling community is on the forefront of thinking across the biological continuum, rather than just focusing at one scale or level of resolution. In addition IMAG identified a strong desire among modelers to form multi-disciplinary partnerships across varied research communities. Overall Intent of IMAG through the MSM Consortium is: * To develop new methodologies that span across biological scales * To develop multiscale methodologies applicable to biomedical, biological and behavioral research * To develop methodologies within the local multidisciplinary team and within the larger Framework environment * To further promote multiscale modeling through model sharing This wiki contains information relevant to the IMAG (Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group) and the MSM (Multi-scale Modeling Consortium).

GoFigure is a software platform for quantitating complex 4d in vivo microscopy based data in high-throughput at the level of the cell. A prime goal of GoFigure is the automatic segmentation of nuclei and cell membranes and in temporally tracking them across cell migration and division to create cell lineages. GoFigure v2.0 is a major new release of our software package for quantitative analysis of image data. The research focuses on analyzing cells in intact, whole zebrafish embryos using 4d (xyzt) imaging which tends to make automatic segmentation more difficult than with 2d or 2d+time imaging of cells in culture. This resource has developed an automatic segmentation pipeline that includes ICA based channel unmixing, membrane nuclear channel subtraction, Gaussian correlation, shape models, and level set based variational active contours. GoFigure was designed to meet the challenging requirements of in toto imaging. In toto imaging is a technology that we are developing in which we seek to track all the cell movements and divisions that form structures during embryonic development of zebrafish and to quantitate protein expression and localization on top of this digital lineage. For in toto imaging, GoFigure uses zebrafish embryos in which the nuclei and cell membranes have been marked with 2 different color fluorescent proteins to allow cells to be segmented and tracked. A transgenic line in a third color can be used to mark protein expression and localization using a genetic approach that this resource developed called FlipTraps or using traditional transgenic approaches. Embryos are imaged using confocal or 2-photon microscopy to capture high-resolution xyzt image sets used for cell tracking. The GoFigure GUI will provide many tools for visualization and analysis of bioimages. Since fully automatic segmentation of cells is never perfect, GoFigure will provide easy to use tools for semi-automatically and manually adding, deleting, and editing traces in 2d (figures-xy, xz, or yz), 3d (meshes- xyz), 4d (tracks- xyzt) and 4d+cell division (lineages). GoFigure will also provide a number of views into complex image data sets including 3d XYZ and XYT image views, tabular list views of traces, histograms, and scattergrams. Importantly, all these views will be linked together to allow the user to explore their data from multiple angles. Data will be easily sorted and color-coded in many ways to explore correlations in higher dimensional data. The GoFigure architecture is designed to allow additional segmentation, visualization, and analysis filters to be plugged in.
