Ben and Catherine Ivy Foundation (RRID:SCR_006333) | Ivy Foundation | funding resource | Funds patient-focused research on gliomas to develop better diagnostics and treatments that lead to long-term survival and a high quality of life for patients with brain tumors. The goal is to decrease the suffering of patients with brain tumors. With an ultimate goal to cure brain cancer, their immediate goal is to improve diagnostics and treatment. They are dedicated to improving the lives of all patients with brain cancer by funding research that they hope will lead to the doubling of life expectancy of patients with brain cancer. Their goal is to do this within the next seven years. Since 2005 they''ve committed more than $50 million to research into brain tumors, with the expectation that this will lead to better diagnostics and therapies. They are dedicated to this search because funding leads to answers, and answers lead to hope. | glioma, research, brain, tumor, brain tumor, diagnostic, treatment | Brain cancer, Cancer | nlx_152043 | SCR_006333 | 2026-08-29 11:22:37 | 2 | |||||||||

Zebra Finch Song Learning Consortium (RRID:SCR_006356) | Zebra Finch Song Learning Consortium | data or information resource, portal, topical portal | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 29, 2016. Project to advance understanding of the neural mechanisms of vocal learning by providing a quantitative description of the relationship between physiological variables and vocal performance over the course of development in a songbird, the zebra finch. They propose to study vocal learning dynamically across neuronal and peripheral subsystems, using a novel collaborative approach that will harness the combined expertise of several investigators. Their proposed research model will 1) provide simultaneous measurements of acoustic, articulatory and electrophysiological data that will document the detailed dynamics of the vocal imitation process in a standardized learning paradigm; and 2) incorporate these measurements into a theoretical/computational framework that simultaneously provides a phenomenological description and attempts to elucidate the mechanistic basis of the learning process. | model organism, vocal learning, development, learning, brain, song |

CTE and Post-traumatic Neurodegeneration: Neuropathology and Ex Vivo Imaging Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
CTE and Post-traumatic Neurodegeneration: Neuropathology and Ex Vivo Imaging (RRID:SCR_006543) | CTE and Post-traumatic Neurodegeneration: Neuropathology and Ex Vivo Imaging | data or information resource, disease-related portal, portal, research forum portal, topical portal | Initiative to assemble a multicenter team of expert neuroscientists to evaluate the late effects of Traumatic brain injury (TBI), including single and repetitive TBI of varying severity, and Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), using histological examination of postmortem bio specimens and neuroimaging tools as a foundation to develop in vivo diagnostics. As a first aim, this proposal will bring together a team of 5 accomplished neuropathologists in neurodegenerative disease to establish consensus criteria for the post-mortem diagnosis of CTE. This team will also define the stages of CTE pathology, the features that differentiate CTE from other neurodegenerations and the effects of substance abuse, and the characteristics of posttraumatic neurodegeneration after single TBI. As a second aim, this proposal will establish a national bio specimen and data bank for TBI (Understanding Neurological Injury and Traumatic Encephalopathy (UNITE) bio bank) by developing a nationwide brain donor registry and hotline to acquire high quality bio specimens and data. The UNITE bank will use strictly standardized protocols and a web-based interface to ensure that tissue and data are readily available to qualified investigators. Comprehensive retrospective clinical data including clinical symptoms, brain trauma and substance abuse history, and medical records (including common data elements) will be entered into a secure database. Behavioral/ mood dysfunction, cognitive changes, substance abuse and traumatic exposure will be correlated with quantitative assessment of the multifocal tauopathy, Ass deposition and axonal injury. As a third aim, neuroimaging signatures of the neuropathology will be determined in post-mortem tissue using high spatial resolution diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and autoradiography using a highly selective PET ligand for tau. Quantitative assessment of axonal injury, tau, and Ass will be correlated with ex vivo DTI abnormalities and tau ligand autoradiography. Pilot neuroimaging studies of individuals at high risk for the development of CTE will also be conducted in the final 2 years of the proposal. This proposal will determine the clinical and neuroimaging correlates of CTE and posttraumatic neurodegeneration and create the groundwork for establishing their incidence and prevalence. This study will have a tremendous impact on public health of millions of Americans and greatly increase our understanding of the latent effects of brain trauma. | brain bank, biospecimen repository, neuroimaging, brain, neuropathology, dti, pet, clinical, cognitive decline, dementia, axonal injury, aggregated protein, neurodegeneration, post-mortem, incidence, prevalence, risk factor, clinical course, treatment, diagnosis, biomarker | has parent organization: Boston University School of Medicine; Massachusetts; USA | Traumatic brain injury, Chronic traumatic encephalopathy | nlx_156786 | SCR_006543 | Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and Post-traumatic Neurodegeneration: Neuropathology and Ex Vivo Imaging | 2026-08-29 11:22:39 | 1 | |||||||

Related efforts for the human brain currently focus on literature mining and an Online Brain Atlas Reconciliation Tool. The primary goal of the Brain Architecture Project is to assemble available knowledge about the structure of the nervous system, with an ultimate emphasis on the human CNS. Such information is currently scattered in research articles, textbooks, electronic databases and datasets, and even as samples on laboratory shelves. Pooling the knowledge across these heterogeneous materials - even simply getting to know what we know - is a complex challenge that requires an interdisciplinary approach and the contributions and support of the greater community.

Essential Tremor Centralized Brain Repository (RRID:SCR_004464) | ETCBR | biomaterial supply resource, brain bank, material resource, tissue bank | Finding a cure for any neurological disorder begins with the scientific study of the disorder''s causes, processes, and development in the brain. For essential tremor (ET), rigorous study of this kind had not been undertaken until 2003, when the Essential Tremor Centralized Brain Repository (ETCBR) was established at Columbia University. For the past five years, brain tissue from ET donors has been collected, processed and compared alongside age-matched control brains at the ETCBR, and already several significant findings have been made. However, there is still much to learn and a severe shortage of ET brains for scientific study. If you have been diagnosed with essential tremor, donating your brain tissue in the hours immediately after your death is of utmost importance in providing crucial information about what causes ET. Direct analysis of the shape and number of nerve cells and their content will provide medical researchers with the information they need in order to understand this complex illness. By advancing our medical knowledge of ET, the gift of brain tissue is a central piece of the puzzle in the search to develop better treatments and find a cure. | essential tremor, control, brain tissue, brain, tissue |

Tissue banks provide a unique bridge between those who live with MS and the scientific community. Studies conducted with samples from the Center have led to several important discoveries and 130 publications. While deeply personal, the decision to donate has far-reaching effects as scientists unlock the mysteries of multiple sclerosis. If you would like to donate, arrangements must be made in advance because it is important that tissue is taken within a few hours of death.
