Biomedical technology research center that develops and implements new technologies to investigate the glycome of cells, including glycoproteomics and glycoconjugate analysis, transcript analysis and bioinformatics. It develops the tools and technology to analyze in detail the glycoprotein and glycolipid expression of mouse embryonic stem cells and the cells into which they differentiate. The technology developed in the Center will allow an understanding of how glycosylation is controlled during differentiation and will allow the development of tools to promote the use of stem cells to treat human disease. In addition, the technology developed will be applicable to the study of other cell types, including cancer cells that are progressing to a more invasive phenotype. The technology developed will also allow others in the scientific community to participate in glycomics research through dissemination of the new methods developed and through the analytical services provided by the resource to other scientists requesting assistance in glycomic analyses.

Data set of raw anatomical and functional MR data from 72 patients with Schizophrenia and 75 healthy controls (ages ranging from 18 to 65 in each group). All subjects were screened and excluded if they had: history of neurological disorder, history of mental retardation, history of severe head trauma with more than 5 minutes loss of consciousness, history of substance abuse or dependence within the last 12 months. Diagnostic information was collected using the Structured Clinical Interview used for DSM Disorders (SCID). A multi-echo MPRAGE (MEMPR) sequence was used with the following parameters: TR/TE/TI = 2530/(1.64, 3.5, 5.36, 7.22, 9.08)/900 ms, flip angle = 7��, FOV = 256x256 mm, Slab thickness = 176 mm, Matrix = 256x256x176, Voxel size =1x1x1 mm, Number of echos = 5, Pixel bandwidth =650 Hz, Total scan time = 6 min. With 5 echoes, the TR, TI and time to encode partitions for the MEMPR are similar to that of a conventional MPRAGE, resulting in similar GM/WM/CSF contrast. Rest data was collected with single-shot full k-space echo-planar imaging (EPI) with ramp sampling correction using the intercomissural line (AC-PC) as a reference (TR: 2 s, TE: 29 ms, matrix size: 64x64, 32 slices, voxel size: 3x3x4 mm3). Slice Acquisition Order: Rest scan - collected in the Axial plane - series ascending - multi slice mode - interleaved MPRAGE - collected in the Sag plane - series interleaved - multi slice mode - single shot The following data are released for every participant: * Resting fMRI * Anatomical MRI * Phenotypic data for every participant including: gender, age, handedness and diagnostic information.

http://www.sci.utah.edu/cibc/software/131-shapeworks.html
THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on September 2, 2022. Software that is an open-source distribution of a new method for constructing compact statistical point-based models of ensembles of similar shapes that does not rely on any specific surface parameterization. The method requires very little preprocessing or parameter tuning, and is applicable to a wide range of shape analysis problems, including nonmanifold surfaces and objects of arbitrary topology. The proposed correspondence point optimization uses an entropy-based minimization that balances the simplicity of the model (compactness) with the accuracy of the surface representations. The ShapeWorks software includes tools for preprocessing data, computing point-based shape models, and visualizing the results.

The BioCurrents Research Center (BRC) is an integrated technology resource of the NIH:NCRR. The activities of the Center focus on molecular physiology as it relates to the cell function and disease. Our particular interest is how the dynamics of cell responses are reflected in the chemical profiles of microdomains surrounding single living cells. In order to measure complex cellular boundary layers, the BRC has specialized in the development of extremely sensitive signal acquisition and processing methods along with miniaturized electrochemical sensor designs. The technique is non-invasive and termed self-referencing. Since its establishment in 1996, the BRC has directed its technological research and development to the design and application of ultra-microelectrodes (tip diameters of less than 10m) tailored for the detection of specific chemicals. These have been successfully applied to the boundary layer profiles of many different cell types, with thematic strength in diabetes research, reproductive health and development (see collaborative profiles). More recently, it is changing its focus to technical developments, enhancing the integrative approach to cell function. To understand a cell as a dynamic and integrated whole, BRC must be able to examine responses from different domains as near to real time and as synchronously as possible. To this end, it is developing imaging capabilities to work in parallel with electrochemistry and conventional electrophysiological techniques. Imaging includes a spinning disc confocal, as well as a low light/luminescent imager designed and built within the BRC. The technologies developed or under development are in high demand within the biomedical community. Over 40 investigators work with the Center each year in a collaborative or service capacity. Over 80 of our visitor pool is NIH funded, representing approximately 25 NIH divisions and institutes. As part of our training and dissemination program we host occasional workshops at major national and international meetings, train a significant number of new investigators each year and host graduate students undertaking portions of their thesis dissertation using our technologies. In dissemination we advise on, and install, electrochemical systems in off campus research endeavors, both academic and industrial.

Biomedical technology research center that develops, tests and applies technology aimed toward completely automating the processes involved in solving macromolecular structures using cryo-electron microscopy. The goal is to establish a resource that will serve both as a center for high-throughput molecular microscopy as well as for transferring this technique to the research community. Current Core Technology Research and Development is focused on 4 areas: improving grid substrates and specimen preparation; further automation and optimization of image acquisition; development of an integrated single particle analysis and processing pipeline; and the development of automated high throughput EM screening. NRAMM welcomes applications of both collaborative and service projects.
