The Cancer Genome Atlas (RRID:SCR_003193) | TCGA | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | Project exploring the spectrum of genomic changes involved in more than 20 types of human cancer that provides a platform for researchers to search, download, and analyze data sets generated. As a pilot project it confirmed that an atlas of changes could be created for specific cancer types. It also showed that a national network of research and technology teams working on distinct but related projects could pool the results of their efforts, create an economy of scale and develop an infrastructure for making the data publicly accessible. Its success committed resources to collect and characterize more than 20 additional tumor types. Components of the TCGA Research Network: * Biospecimen Core Resource (BCR); Tissue samples are carefully cataloged, processed, checked for quality and stored, complete with important medical information about the patient. * Genome Characterization Centers (GCCs); Several technologies will be used to analyze genomic changes involved in cancer. The genomic changes that are identified will be further studied by the Genome Sequencing Centers. * Genome Sequencing Centers (GSCs); High-throughput Genome Sequencing Centers will identify the changes in DNA sequences that are associated with specific types of cancer. * Proteome Characterization Centers (PCCs); The centers, a component of NCI's Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium, will ascertain and analyze the total proteomic content of a subset of TCGA samples. * Data Coordinating Center (DCC); The information that is generated by TCGA will be centrally managed at the DCC and entered into the TCGA Data Portal and Cancer Genomics Hub as it becomes available. Centralization of data facilitates data transfer between the network and the research community, and makes data analysis more efficient. The DCC manages the TCGA Data Portal. * Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub); Lower level sequence data will be deposited into a secure repository. This database stores cancer genome sequences and alignments. * Genome Data Analysis Centers (GDACs) - Immense amounts of data from array and second-generation sequencing technologies must be integrated across thousands of samples. These centers will provide novel informatics tools to the entire research community to facilitate broader use of TCGA data. TCGA is actively developing a network of collaborators who are able to provide samples that are collected retrospectively (tissues that had already been collected and stored) or prospectively (tissues that will be collected in the future). | genome, genome sequencing, breast, central nervous system, endocrine, gastrointestinal, gynecologic, head, neck, hematologic, skin, soft tissue, thoracic, urologic, clinical, genomic characterization, analysis, tumor genome, demographic, gene expression, copy number alteration, epigenetic, dna sequence, exome, snp, methylation, mrna, mirna, FASEB list |

Framingham Heart Study Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
Framingham Heart Study (RRID:SCR_008963) | FHS | material resource, biomaterial supply resource | A longitudinal, epidemiologic study to identify the common risk factors or characteristics that contribute to cardiovascular disease by following its development over a long period of time in a large group of participants who had not yet developed overt symptoms or suffered a heart attack or stroke. Since that time the FHS has studied three generations of participants resulting in biological specimens and data from nearly 15,000 participants. Since 1994, two groups from minority populations, including related individuals have been added to the FHS. FHS welcomes proposals from outside investigators for data and biospecimens. The researchers recruited 5,209 men and women between the ages of 30 and 62 from the town of Framingham, Massachusetts, and began the first round of extensive physical examinations and lifestyle interviews that they would later analyze for common patterns related to CVD development. Since 1948, the subjects have continued to return to the study every two years for a detailed medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests, and in 1971, the Study enrolled a second generation - 5,124 of the original participants'''' adult children and their spouses - to participate in similar examinations. In 1994, the need to establish a new study reflecting a more diverse community of Framingham was recognized, and the first Omni cohort of the Framingham Heart Study was enrolled. In April 2002 the Study entered a new phase, the enrollment of a third generation of participants, the grandchildren of the Original Cohort. In 2003, a second group of Omni participants was enrolled. Over the years, careful monitoring of the Framingham Study population has led to the identification of major CVD risk factors, as well as valuable information on the effects of these factors such as blood pressure, blood triglyceride and cholesterol levels, age, gender, and psychosocial issues. Risk factors for other physiological conditions such as dementia have been and continue to be investigated. In addition, the relationships between physical traits and genetic patterns are being studied. FHS clinical and research data is stored in the dbGaP and NHLBI Repository repositories and may be accessed by application. Please check the following repositories before applying for data through FHS. Investigators seeking data that is not available through dbGaP or BioLINCC or seeking biological specimens may submit a proposal through the FHS web-based research application. The FHS data repository may be accessed through this FHS website, under the For Researchers link, then Description of Data, in order to determine if and how the desired data is stored. Proposals may involve the use of existing data, the collection of new data, either directly from participants or from previously collected samples, images, or other materials (e.g., medical records). The FHS Repository also has biological specimens available for genetic and non-genetic research proposals. Specimens include urine, blood and blood products, as well as DNA. | clinical study, longitudinal study, heart, cardiac, adult human, male, female, risk factor, blood pressure, blood triglyceride, cholesterol level, age, gender, psychosocial, dementia, physical trait, genetic trait, minority, clinical, genotype, phenotype, urine, blood, blood product, dna, FASEB list |

NIH - Rapid Access to Interventional Development (RRID:SCR_000713) | funding resource, material service resource, analysis service resource, material analysis service, biomaterial analysis service, biomaterial manufacture, production service resource, service resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 14, 2025.NIH-RAID makes available at no cost to researchers and organizations certain critical resources needed for the development of new therapeutic agents. This program, part of the Translational Research component of Reengineering the Clinical Research Enterprise, uses resources of NCI's Developmental Therapeutics Program and the National Heart Lung and Blood Institutes (NHLBI) Gene Therapy Resource Program. The services provided will depend upon the stage of the project and the strength of the preliminary data. Services available include: production, bulk supply, GMP manufacturing, formulation, development of an assay suitable for pharmacokinetic testing, and animal toxicology. Assistance also will be provided in the regulatory process, through access to independent product development planning expertise. Proposals in support of animal efficacy studies or synthesis and formulation of recombinant proteins or monoclonal antibodies will not be accepted. NIH-RAID is not a grant program. Successful projects will gain access to the governments contract resources, as well as the assistance of the NIH in establishing and implementing a product development plan. Funds to support individual projects will come both from the Roadmap and from individual Institutes, with Institutes assuming the bulk of support in the specific disease areas germane to their mission. This co-sponsorship is critical because of the resource and expertise needs and because NIH-RAID cannot support the full developmental pipeline; an Institute partnership may therefore be important for subsequent translational efforts. To obtain access to NIH-RAID resources, applications must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov using SF424. Applications are initially screened to determine whether the resources requested are appropriate for this program. Then they are reviewed by the NIH Center for Scientific Research. The results of that evaluation along with supplemental information from the lead investigator will guide final Institute and Roadmap resource allocation. The services provided will depend upon the stage of the project and the strength of the preliminary data. When a lead therapeutic agent has been selected and proposed for preclinical development, the following services are available: For small molecules, natural products, peptides, oligonucleotides, and gene vectors: Synthesis, Scale-up production, Development of analytical methods, Development of suitable formulations, Isolation and purification of natural products, Pharmacokinetic/ADME studies including bioanalytical method development, Range-finding initial toxicology, IND-directed toxicology, Manufacture of clinical trial supplies, Product development planning and advice in IND preparation For recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies: Pharmacokinetic/ADME studies including bioanalytical method development, Range-finding initial toxicology, IND-directed toxicology, Product development planning and advice in IND preparation When a lead therapeutic agent has not yet been selected and proposed for preclinical development, the following services are available: For small molecules, natural products, peptides, oligonucleotides, and gene vectors: Synthesis, Development of analytical methods, Isolation and purification of natural products, Preliminary Pharmacokinetic/ADME studies, including bioanalytical method development, Preliminary toxicology For recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies, Preliminary Pharmacokinetic/ADME studies, including bioanalytical method development, Preliminary toxicology In some cases the NIH-RAID program will support only one or two key steps for preclinical development, while in other cases it may be possible to provide assistance with most of the development tasks needed to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). When the NIH-RAID program does not provide all of the remaining services required for IND submission, it is expected that other resources will be in place to complete development steps not supported by NIH-RAID.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center Pharmacology Resource Report Resource Website |
Vanderbilt University Medical Center Pharmacology (RRID:SCR_001450) | Vanderbilt Pharmacology | data or information resource, department portal, organization portal, portal | At the Department of Pharmacology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center we engage in scientific discovery to elucidate biological mechanisms and develop novel therapeutics. We provide training focused on critical thinking to promote innovation, scholarship and integrity. To this end, we foster creativity, collegiality, and leadership. The Department is one of the most distinguished Pharmacology departments in the country and have placed in the top two NIH ranking positions for sixteen of the last twenty years. Research interests in the Department include five major areas: signal transduction, neuroscience, bioactive lipid metabolism, genetic basis of cardiovascular dysfunction, and drug metabolism. Molecules under investigation include G-protein coupled receptors (rhodopsin, adrenergic, serotonin and receptors), heterotrimeric G-proteins, ion channels, transporters and regulatory proteins such as arrestins, protein kinases and protein phosphatases. A strength in our research and training environment is that Vanderbilt University has a world-acclaimed Division of Clinical Pharmacology, which links the Department of Medicine with the Department of Pharmacology. Faculty members in the Division of Clinical Pharmacology focus on human disease and clinical enigmas as the origin of their questions for research. Basic scientists who pursue their inquiries in this environment are continually informed by their colleagues of the pathophysiological and potential therapeutic relevance that can be achieved by appropriate focus of their efforts. We have created one of the first programs in the country to answer the call from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for more scientists trained in the area of drug discovery and development. A unique feature of the department is our outstanding Ph.D. training program. Almost 60 scientists in training are addressing important issues in fields such neuroscience, cardiovascular development, receptor signaling, and drug metabolism. Scientists in these areas are linked by a common interest in, and understanding of, the basic principles of drug action and design. This perspective makes our trainees ideally suited for a wide range of careers and our program is committed to developing leaders in academia, industry, and regulatory affairs. Postdoctoral and other positions are available. | pharmacology, clinical, signal transduction, neuroscience, bioactive lipid metabolism, cardiovascular dysfunction, drug metabolism, g-protein coupled receptor, rhodopsin, adrenergic, serotonin, receptor, heterotrimeric g-protein, ion channel, transporter, regulatory protein, arrestins, protein kinase, protein phosphatase, disease, drug discovery, drug development |
