Canadian Virtual Brain Tumour Bank Resource Report Resource Website |
Canadian Virtual Brain Tumour Bank (RRID:SCR_004221) | CVBTB | biomaterial supply resource, brain bank, material resource, tissue bank | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented May 10, 2017. The mission of the Canadian Virtual Brain Tumour Bank (CVBTB) is to facilitate clinical, molecular and translational research through the provision of well-characterized tissue linked to clinical data and to become a standardized national tissue resource whereby scientific needs are met, addressed and accelerated through a common public accessible core the CVBTB. Recognizing the need to encourage systemic banking of brain tumor tissues throughout the country and to link banks of brain tumor tissue samples with academic and scientific institutions that require these samples, the CVBTB was established. Under the sponsorship of Schering Plough Canada Inc. and in association with the Canadian Brain Tumour Consortium (CBTC), the CVBTB looks to act as a resource for all researchers to provide them with information on the types of brain tumor tissue samples available and to direct them to the tumor tissue banking sites holding these samples. The CVBTB also looks to provide information on standard operating procedures regarding aspects of tumor tissue banking such as tissue accrual, storage and shipment and the processing of blood samples such as serum and lymphocytes. The CVBTB currently consists of four brain tumour tissue banking sites (Toronto Western Hospital - Toronto, Ontario; London Health Sciences Centre - London, Ontario; McGill University - Montreal, Quebec; University of Calgary - Calgary, Alberta) and is continuously looking for more institutions to be a part of the CVBTB. If your institution would like to become a part of the CVBTB, please contact the CVBTB coordinator. | virtual tissue bank, brain tumor, tumor bank, standardized tissue bank |

Virtual WalkIt supports the articulation, analysis, and integration of biological theories and the exploration of their wider scientific and cultural significance. The institute is located in Altenberg, near Vienna, in the family mansion of the Nobel Laureate Konrad Lorenz, whose work laid the foundation for an evolutionary approach to mind and cognition. The KLI supports theoretical research primarily in the areas of evolutionary developmental biology and evolutionary cognitive science. This is accomplished by providing fellowships for scientific projects of graduate students, postdocs, and visiting scientists. In addition, the KLI organizes lecture series at the University of Vienna and hosts round-table discussions and workshops at the Lorenz mansion. The KLI houses the Konrad Lorenz Archive and it provides an extensive internet database for literature in theoretical biology and related fields. The KLI also runs a small animal facility for selected, empirical projects in evolution and cognition research. The KLI guesthouse provides accommodation for visiting fellows and guests of the institute. Founded in 1990, the KLI is funded by a private trust and receives additional support from the Austrian Ministry of Science and the Province of Lower Austria. The institute has close ties with many of the higher education institutions in Vienna and Lower Austria as well as with a number of international institutions with similar aims. The institute provides a stimulating and creative environment for fellows, visiting scholars, students, and external faculty who wish to work on any of the afore mentioned topics. Through its lecture and seminar series the KLI also offers a platform for the critical public discussion of current themes in the biosciences. | evolutionary developmental biology, evolutionary cognitive science | is parent organization of: KLI Theory Lab | private trust ; Austrian Ministry of Science ; Province of Lower Austria |
