Ontology that contains the former BIRNLex-Disease, version 1.3.2. -- The BIRN Project lexicon provided entities for data and database annotation for the BIRN project, covering anatomy, disease, data collection, project management and experimental design. It was built using the organizational framework provided by the foundational Basic Formal Ontology (BFO). It used an abstract biomedical layer on top of that - OBO-UBO which was constructed as a proposal to the OBO Foundry. This was meant to support creating a sharable view of core biomedical objects such as biomaterial_entity, and organismal_entity that all biomedical ontologies are likely to need and want to use with the same intended meaning. The BIRNLex biomaterial entities have already been factored to separately maintained ontology - BIRNLexBiomaterialEntity.owl which this BIRNLex-Main.owl file imports. The Ontology of Biomedical Investigation (OBI) is also imported and forms the foundation for the formal description of all experiment-related artifacts. The BIRNLex will serve as the basis for construction of a formal ontology for the multiscale investigation of neurological disease.

http://www.lifeextensionfoundation.org/

Established in 1980, the Life Extension Foundation is a nonprofit organization, whose long-range goal is to radically extend the healthy human lifespan by discovering scientific methods to control aging and eradicate disease. The largest organization of its kind in the world, the Life Extension Foundation has always been at the forefront of discovering new scientific breakthroughs for use in developing novel disease prevention and treatment protocols to improve the quality and length of human life. Through its private funding of research programs aimed at identifying and developing new therapies to slow and even reverse the aging process, the Life Extension Foundation seeks to reduce, and ultimately eliminate, such age-related killers as heart disease, stroke, cancer and Alzheimer''s disease. Long-time members are keenly aware of the scientific research that Life Extension Foundation funds to develop validated methods to slow and reverse the aging process. Less known is Life Extension''s multi-prong program to develop safer and more effective cancer therapies. One reason we focus so heavily on cancer research is that this dreaded disease represents a roadblock in our ability to develop effective means to combat aging.

http://pathema.jcvi.org/Pathema/index.html

Pathema is one of the eight Bioinformatics Resource Centers designed to serve as a core resource for the bio-defense and infectious disease research community. Pathema strives to support basic research and accelerate scientific progress for understanding, detecting, diagnosing and treating an established set of six target NIAID Category A-C pathogens: Category A priority pathogens; Bacillus anthracis and Clostridium botulinum, and Category B priority pathogens; Burkholderia mallei, Burkholderia pseudomallei, Clostridium perfringens and Entamoeba histolytica. Each target pathogen is represented in one of four distinct clade-specific Pathema web resources and underlying databases developed to target the specific data and analysis needs of each scientific community. All publicly available complete genome projects of phylogenetically related organisms are also represented, providing a comprehensive collection of organisms for comparative analyses. Pathema facilitates the scientific exploration of genomic and related data through its integration with web-based analysis tools, customized to obtain, display, and compute results relevant to ongoing pathogen research. Pathema serves the bio-defense and infectious disease research community by disseminating data resulting from pathogen genome sequencing projects and providing access to the results of inter-genomic comparisons for these organisms. The Pathema BRC contract ends in December 2009. At that time JCVI will cease maintenance of the Pathema web resource and data. The PATRIC team, located at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute, created and maintains a consolidated BRC for all of the NIAID category A-C priority pathogenic bacteria. The EuPathDB team at the University of Pennsylvania will support all eukaryotic pathogens. Pathema transferred all data and software to PATRIC and EuPathDB for incorporation into their new Web-based bioinformatics resource.

Software providing de novo, parallel, paired-end sequence assembler that is designed for short reads. ABySS 1.0 originally showed that assembling human genome using short 50 bp sequencing reads was possible by aggregating half terabyte of compute memory needed over several computers using standardized message passing system. ABySS 2.0 is Resource Efficient Assembly of Large Genomes using Bloom Filter. ABySS 2.0 departs from MPI and instead implements algorithms that employ Bloom filter, probabilistic data structure, to represent de Bruijn graph and reduce memory requirements.

The aim is to develop a new visualization tool that allows effective comparative genome sequence analysis. The program will compare multiple sequences from putitatively homologous regions in different species. Results from various different existing analysis programs, such as gene prediction, protein homology and regulatory sequence prediction programs shall be visualized and used to find corresponding sequence domains. The program functions as an stand-alone application and also over the World Wide Web. With this in mind it is being developed using the Java programming language. A key feature of the program is to use available analysis programs relevant to comparative genome sequence analysis, combine the results of these, and graphically present them in an intuitive way, thereby facilitating the analysis of large genomic regions. We''ve decided to call this program Alfresco. We originally wanted to call it Fresco (FRont-End for Sequence COmparison) but that name was already taken. To run Alfresco you need to have jdk1.1 installed. Alfresco has only been tested on Solaris 2.5, Dec OSF 4.0D and Linux, but should run on any machine with jdk1.1. New: Alfresco now runs on Mac and Windows as well.
