Deric Bownds'' Mindblog reports new ideas and work on mind, brain, and behavior - as well as random curious stuff. Deric Bownds, retired Univ. Wisc. Professor, studies brain and mind. My laboratory research of ~35 years contributed to our understanding of how vision works. This work was gradually phased out in the 1990''s as I devoted increasing time to studying the evolution, development, and function of humans brains.

This blog highlights and comments on current research and hypotheses relating to how the brain wires itself up during development, how the end result can vary in different people and what happens when it goes wrong. It includes discussions of the genetic and neurodevelopmental bases of traits such as intelligence and personality characteristics, as well as of conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, dyslexia, epilepsy, synaesthesia and others.

BrainImmune is a free web-based reference that provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on the broad spectrum of medical research related to brain-immune interactions and their impact on health and disease. BrainImmune is written collaboratively by experts in the field from all around the world. Here, concise summaries of basic and clinical research describe how the brain and the immune system ''talk'' to each other in order to maintain homeostasis. BrainImmune is continually updated, with articles and opinions on history, the present state of the art, and new ideas and conceptual frameworks for the neurohormonal- and stress-immune interactions and their implications for common human diseases. Our goal in developing BrainImmune is to facilitate and advance neuroendocrine-immunology research, and the communication and collaborations in this vast interdisciplinary area.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 28,2025. The Stroke Patient Recovery Research Database (SPReD) initiative creates the infrastructure needed for the collection of a wide range of data related to stroke risk factors and to stroke recovery. It also promotes the analysis and management of large brain and vessel images. A major goal is to create a comprehensive electronic database Stroke Patient Recovery Research Database or SPReD and populate it with patient data, including demographic, biomarker, genetic and proteomic data and imaging data. SPReD will enable us to combine descriptions of our stroke patients from multiple projects that are geographically distributed. We will do this in a uniform fashion in order to enhance our ability to document rates of recovery; to study the effects of vascular risk factors and inflammatory biomarkers; and to use these data to improve their physical and cognitive recovery through innovative intervention programs. This comprehensive database will provide an integrated repository of data with which our researchers will investigate and test original ideas, ultimately leading to knowledge that can be applied clinically to benefit stroke survivors.

A database containing genome-wide brain DNA methylation profiles for human and mouse brains. The DNA methylation profiles were generated by Methylation Mapping Analysis by Paired-end Sequencing (Methyl-MAPS) method and analyzed by Methyl-Analyzer software package. The methylation profiles cover over 80% CpG dinucleotides in human and mouse brains in single-CpG resolution. The integrated genome browser (modified from UCSC Genome Browser allows users to browse DNA methylation profiles in specific genomic loci, to search specific methylation patterns, and to compare methylation patterns between individual samples. Two species were included in the Brain Methylome Database: human and mouse. Human postmortem brain samples were obtained from three distinct cortical regions, i.e., dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), ventral prefrontal cortex (vPFC), and auditory cortex (AC). Human samples were selected from our postmortem brain collection with extensive neuropathological and psychopathological data, as well as brain toxicology reports. The Department of Psychiatry of Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute have assembled this brain collection, where a validated psychological autopsy method is used to generate Axis I and II DSM IV diagnoses and data are obtained on developmental history, history of psychiatric illness and treatment, and family history for each subject. The mouse sample (strain 129S6/SvEv) DNA was collected from the entire left cerebral hemisphere. The three human brain regions were selected because they have been implicated in the neuropathology of depression and schizophrenia. Within each cortical region, both disease and non-psychiatric samples have been profiled (matching subjects by age and sex in each group). Such careful matching of subjects allows one to perform a wide range of queries with the ability to characterize methylation features in non-psychiatric controls, as well as detect differentially methylated domains or features between disease and non-psychiatric samples. A total of 14 non-psychiatric, 9 schizophrenic, and 6 depression methylation profiles are included in the database.

A database and associated tools for investigating the genetic basis of neurodisability. It combines phenotype information from patients with neurodevelopmental and behavioral problems with clinical genetic data, and displays this information on the human genome map. Basic access to genetic information (deletions, duplications) relating to participants with neurodevelopmental disorders is provided without an account; access to the full dataset requires an account. The genetic information that is available to view comprises potentially pathogenic copy number variation across the genome, detected by array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH) using a customized 44K oligonucleotide array.
