THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on May 18th, 2016. A foundation that was founded in 2001, and sponsors academic centers throughout the US. The MIchael Stern Parkinson's Research Foundation focuses its efforts mainly on finding the causes of the disease, finding effective treatments, and discovering a cure for the disease. The foundation is notably looking into dopamine and its effects on neural connections, as well its possibility to be used for treatment.
Dr. Greengard has assembled a close knit group of more than 25 outstanding scientists who are focused on translating the fundamental understandings about the dopamine system into new treatments for Parkinson's. The core team of researchers is based at the Stern Foundation laboratory on the campus of The Rockefeller University interacts continually with collaborators from the United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Italy, Japan and Korea. This global presence ensures that no promising research lead is overlooked, and that progress can be made on multiple fronts simultaneously. As the Foundation grew it was able to expand its support for critical neurological research to two other institutions, Harvard University's McLean Hospital, where we support the research of Dr. Ole Isacson whose research lab, The Stern Center for Neuroregeneration Research is using gene therapy to protect the most vulnerable neurons in PD models; and the Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders, where Yale Professors Dr. Ken Marek and Dr. John Seibyl are developing novel tools for early detection and monitoring of Parkinson's disease by studying physiologic, biochemical and neuroimaging biomarkers for non-dominergic manifestations of Parkinsonism. :NIF thanks the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, http://www.pdf.org for their referral of this resource to us.

http://www.lerner.ccf.org/gmi/gmb/

A biorepository is a place where investigators can deposit and store biological material, in this case samples derived from patients. Moreover, the Genomic Medicine Institute (GMI) takes this basic concept and elevates it to make the Genomic Medicine Biorepository (GMB) a full-service processing and banking laboratory that serves as the foundation for evidence-based research for the GMI, the Cleveland Clinic, and our collaborators. The process relies on a team of multi-disciplinary professionals coordinating their efforts in order to streamline medical research. This begins with dedicated physicians and genetic counselors identifying individuals with specific medical conditions indicating the possibility of genetic involvement. Once identified, biological material (e.g. blood, tissue, or saliva) is collected under the care of the patient''s doctor or by our clinicians and sent to the GMB. Once in the lab, the patient and their samples are assigned a unique identifier (to protect the patient''s personal information) and logged into a central database. This unique identifier accompanies all samples processed and banked for that individual. The specimens are then processed into research-relevant samples using proven laboratory techniques and state-of-the-art quality control practices. These samples include the isolation of DNA and RNA from white blood cells for genetic studies; collection of plasma for proteomic studies; and initiated immortalized cell lines from lymphocytes for in-vitro studies and biochemical research. These cell lines are able to be indefinitely stored in cryogenic suspension and are invaluable as a renewable resource for genetic and biochemical research. The GMB also processes genetic material from various tissues (both fresh and archived). Charis Eng, MD, PhD, Chair and Director of the GMI, has been the faculty oversight person of a human biorepository for the last eight years. Since then, our biorepository has received, cataloged, processed, and banked, in excess of 25,000 specimens. These samples are of numerous tissue types from patients and their family members located all over the world. Our biorepository has managed samples that have resulted in more than 150 original peer reviewed articles and greater than $25 million total direct costs in extramural funding over the last four years alone.

The Cancer Text Information Extraction System (caTIES) provides tools for de-identification and automated coding of free-text structured pathology reports. It also has a client that can be used to search these coded reports. The client also supports Tissue Banking and Honest Broker operations. caTIES focuses on two important challenges of bioinformatics * Information extraction (IE) from free text * Access to tissue. Regarding the first challenge, information from free-text pathology documents represents a vital and often underutilized source of data for cancer researchers. Typically, extracting useful data from these documents is a slow and laborious manual process requiring significant domain expertise. Application of automated methods for IE provides a method for radically increasing the speed and scope with which this data can be accessed. Regarding the second challenge, there is a pressing need in the cancer research community to gain access to tissue specific to certain experimental criteria. Presently, there are vast quantities of frozen tissue and paraffin embedded tissue throughout the country, due to lack of annotation or lack of access to annotation these tissues are often unavailable to individual researchers. caTIES has three goals designed to solve these problems: * Extract coded information from free text Surgical Pathology Reports (SPRs), using controlled terminologies to populate caBIG-compliant data structures. * Provide researchers with the ability to query, browse and create orders for annotated tissue data and physical material across a network of federated sources. With caTIES the SPR acts as a locator to tissue resources. * Pioneer research for distributed text information extraction within the context of caBIG. caTIES focuses on IE from SPRs because they represent a high-dividend target for automated analysis. There are millions of SPRs in each major hospital system, and SPRs contain important information for researchers. SPRs act as tissue locators by indicating the presence of tissue blocks, frozen tissue and other resources, and by identifying the relationship of the tissue block to significant landmarks such as tumor margins. At present, nearly all important data within SPRs are embedded within loosely-structured free-text. For these reasons, SPRs were chosen to be coded through caTIES because facilitating access to information contained in SPRs will have a powerful impact on cancer research. Once SPR information has been run through the caTIES Pipeline, the data may be queried and inspected by the researcher. The goal of this search may be to extract and analyze data or to acquire slides of tissue for further study. caTIES provides two query interfaces, a simple query dashboard and an advanced diagram query builder. Both of these interfaces are capable of NCI Metathesaurus, concept-based searching as well as string searching. Additionally, the diagram interface is capable of advanced searching functionalities. An important aspect of the interface is the ability to manage queries and case sets. Users are able to vet query results and save them to case sets which can then be edited at a later time. These can be submitted as tissue orders or used to derive data extracts. Queries can also be saved, and modified at a later time. caTIES provides the following web services by default: MMTx Service, TIES Coder Service
