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.

Narrative resource describing a visual data analysis and collection approach that takes advantage of the cylindrical nature of the zebrafish allowing for an efficient and effective method for image capture called, Specimen in a Corrected Optical Rotational Enclosure (SCORE) Imaging. To achieve a non-distorted image, zebrafish were placed in a fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) tube with a surrounding, optically corrected imaging solution: water. By similarly matching the refractive index of the housing (FEP tubing) to that of the inner liquid and outer liquid (water), distortion was markedly reduced, producing a crisp imagable specimen that is able to be fully rotated 360 degrees. A similar procedure was established for fixed zebrafish embryos using convenient, readily available borosilicate capillaries surrounded by 75% glycerol. The method described could be applied to chemical genetic screening and other, related high-throughput methods within the fish community and among other scientific fields.

http://integrativemodeling.org/

An open source C++ and Python toolbox for solving complex modeling problems, and a number of applications for tackling some common problems in a user-friendly way. Its broad goal is to contribute to a comprehensive structural characterization of biomolecules ranging in size and complexity from small peptides to large macromolecular assemblies, by integrating data from diverse biochemical and biophysical experiments. It can also be used from the Chimera molecular modeling system, or via one of several web applications.

http://publications.nigms.nih.gov/computinglife/

An NIGMS magazine that showcases the exciting ways that scientists are using the power of computers to expand our knowledge of biology and medicine. From text messaging friends to navigating city streets with GPS technology, we''re all living the computing life. But as we''ve upgraded from snail mail and compasses, so too have scientists. Computer advances now let researchers quickly search through DNA sequences to find gene variations that could lead to disease, simulate how flu might spread through your school and design three-dimensional animations of molecules that rival any video game. By teaming computers and biology, scientists can answer new and old questions that could offer insights into the fundamental processes that keep us alive and make us sick. This booklet introduces you to just some of the ways that physicists, biologists and even artists are computing life. Each section focuses on a different research problem, offers examples of current scientific projects and acquaints you with the people conducting the work. You can follow the links for online extras and other opportunities to learn aboutand get involved inthis exciting new interdisciplinary field.

http://ccr.coriell.org/Sections/Collections/NIGMS/?SsId=8

Highly characterized cell lines and high quality DNA for cell and genetic research representing a variety of disease states, chromosomal abnormalities, apparently healthy individuals and many distinct human populations. The NIGMS Repository contains more than 10,600 cell lines, primarily fibroblasts and transformed lymphoblasts, and over 5,500 DNA samples. The NIGMS Repository has a major emphasis on heritable diseases and chromosomally aberrant cell lines. In addition, it contains a large collection dedicated to understanding human variation that includes samples from populations around the world, the CEPH collection, the Polymorphism Discovery Resource, and many apparently healthy controls. Human induced pluripotent stem cell lines, many of which were derived from NIGMS Repository fibroblasts, have recently become available through the NIGMS Repository. Sample donation facilitates all areas of research by making available well-characterized materials to any qualified researcher who might have otherwise been unable to invest the time and resources to collect needed samples independently. Donations to the Repository have created a resource of unparalleled scope. Samples from the collection have been used in more than 5,500 publications and are distributed to scientists in more than 50 countries. This resource is continuously expanding to support new directions in human genetics.
