Supports research and scholarship to improve the quality of life by providing funding for grants in three program areas: studying complex systems, understanding human cognition, and mathematical and complex systems approaches for brain cancer. Types of awards include Fellowship Awards, Scholar Awards, and Collaborative Awards. * Studying Complex Systems: This program supports scholarship and research directed toward the development of theoretical and mathematical tools that can be applied to the study of complex, adaptive, nonlinear systems. It is anticipated that research funded in this program will address issues in fields such as biology, biodiversity, climate, demography, epidemiology, technological change, economic development, governance, or computation. * Understanding Human Cognition: This program supports research studying how neural systems are linked to and support cognitive functions and how cognitive systems are related to an organism's (preferably human) observable behavior. Studies with model organisms should justify why such models were selected and how data obtained from models advances our understanding of human cognition. * Mathematical & Complex Systems Approaches for Brain Cancer: (Collaborative Activity Awards grant type only.) Despite some recent cause for optimism for advancing the clinical treatment of brain cancers, for many patients brain tumor remains a devastating diagnosis. Progress against this disease has been stymied by limited understandings of the molecular, metabolic, and physiological characteristics of human brain cancers across multiple temporal and spatial scales and by the failure of many preclinical models to predict patient responses.

The Centre d''Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) is a research laboratory, the main activities of which are the setting up, storage, processing and distribution of DNA collections for the identification of genetic factors conferring susceptibility to complex disorders. These collections are established in partnership and full collaboration with external French or international research groups. The Foundation currently hosts the CEPH reference panel, the HGDP panel (Human genome Diversity Cell Line Panel) and several collections amounting mid-2008 to more than 250 000 samples. The goal of CEPH is to understand complex multifactorial disorders necessitates the establishment of structures facilitating access to large and integrated collection of individuals, characterized by a large number of variables emanating from different technologies and platforms. To achieve this goal, CEPH facilitates the setting up of integrated analyses combining clinical, genetic and environmental data, for the identification of susceptibility factors to complex multifactorial disorders Additionally, CEHP allows the reception, storage, processing and distribution of biological sample collections. At the same time, it promotes and participates in the design and setting up of genetic studies: - in partnership and full collaboration with external research groups - giving access to a large number of variables - in a sufficient number of subjects - allowing large scale integrated analyses

http://www.fz-juelich.de/ime/spm_anatomy_toolbox

A MATLAB toolbox which uses three dimensional probabilistic cytoarchitechtonic maps to correlate microscopic, anatomic and functional data of the cerebral cortex. Correlating the activation foci identified in functional imaging studies of the human brain with structural (e.g., cytoarchitectonic) information on the activated areas is a major methodological challenge for neuroscience research. We here present a new approach to make use of three-dimensional probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps, as obtained from the analysis of human post-mortem brains, for correlating microscopical, anatomical and functional imaging data of the cerebral cortex. We introduce a new, MATLAB based toolbox for the SPM2 software package which enables the integration of probabilistic cytoarchitectonic maps and results of functional imaging studies. The toolbox includes the functionality for the construction of summary maps combining probability of several cortical areas by finding the most probable assignment of each voxel to one of these areas. Its main feature is to provide several measures defining the degree of correspondence between architectonic areas and functional foci. The software, together with the presently available probability maps, is available as open source software to the neuroimaging community. This new toolbox provides an easy-to-use tool for the integrated analysis of functional and anatomical data in a common reference space.

Collaborative environment of building and validating electronic phenotype algorithms using electronic medical records (EMRs) and natural language processing (NLP) for use in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). On this site you can: View existing algorithms, Enter or create new algorithms, Collaborate with others to create or review algorithms, View implementation details for existing algorithms. The Electronic Medical Records and Genomics Network (eMERGE) has investigated whether data captured through routine clinical care using electronic medical records (EMRs) can identify disease phenotypes with sufficient positive and negative predictive values for use in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Most EMRs captured key information (diagnoses, medications, laboratory tests) used to define phenotypes in a structured format; in addition, natural language processing has also been shown to improve case identification rates. PheKB is an outgrowth of that validation effort. Phenotype algorithms can be viewed by data modalities or methods used: CPT codes, ICD 10 codes, ICD 9 codes, Laboratories, Medications, Vital Signs, Natural Language Processing Algorithms can also be viewed by: * Implementation results (positive predictive value, sensitivity, publications) * Institution * Work Group

In the early nineties it became evident that HIV infection was spreading widely in India and the national efforts for control of HIV infection needed to be backed by quality research. It was also realized that AIDS, being a multifaceted disease, needed multi-disciplinary research involving virology, immunology, microbiology, clinical research, epidemiology, field based trials and social and behavioral research. An Institute devoted exclusively to HIV/ AIDS that could undertake research of such a diversity and magnitude was established to meet this requirement. National AIDS Research Institute (NARI) was established in October 1992 in Bhosari, Pune on a seven acre plot. The Institute has progressively expanded its activities in various aspects of research on HIV and AIDS through infra-structural development, capacity building & research programmes. The activities of NARI are supported by the ICMR & numerous extramural agencies. For the fiscal year 2005-2006 the ICMR allocated 5.66 crores for NARI. Additionally, over 13 crores have been generated through extramural sources. The Institute''s research activities are guided by a Scientific Advisory Committee which includes eminent scientists from varied disciplines. All research projects are reviewed & approved by the Ethics Committee which also ensures that research is conducted with highest ethical standards. Establishment of a Community Advisory Board which acts as an interface between the community and the researchers is a pioneering effort by NARI.
