Using robotic devices to investigate human motor behavior, this group develops computational models to understand the underlying control and learning processes. By simulating novel objects or dynamic environments they study how the brain recalibrates well-learned motor skills or acquires new ones. These insights are used to design fMRI studies to investigate how these processes map onto the brain. They have developed a number of novel techniques of how to study motor control in the MRI environment, and how to analyze MRI data of the human cerebellum. They also study patients with stroke or neurological disease to further determine how the brain manages to control the body.

The human brain has the remarkable ability to adapt in response to changes in the environment over the course of a lifetime. This is the mechanism for learning, growth, and normal development. Similar changes or adaptations can also occur in response to focal brain injuries, e.g., partially-adapted neighboring brain regions or functionally-related brain systems can either substitute for some of the lost function or develop alternative strategies to overcome a disability. Through ongoing research, the Music and Neuroimaging Laboratory''s mission is to: * Reveal the perceptual and cognitive aspects of music processing including the perception and memory for pitch, rhythmic, harmonic, and melodic stimuli. * Investigate the use of music and musical stimuli as an interventional tool for educational and therapeutic purposes. * Reveal the behavioral and neural correlates of learning, skill acquisition, and brain adaptation in response to changes in the environment or brain injury in the developing and adult brain. * Reveal the determinants and facilitators for recovery from brain injury. Project topics include: Aphasia Therapy, Singing and Speaking, Tone Deafness / Congenital Amusia, Motor Recovery Studies, Music and Emotions, Music and Autism, Children and Music Making, Brain Stimulation, Adult Musician Studies, Absolute Pitch Studies, Acute Stroke Studies

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Wiki

The Gene Wiki is a project that facilitates transferring information on human genes to Wikipedia article stubs with the goal of promoting collaboration and expansion of the articles. Number of gene articles The human genome contains an estimated 20,00025,000 protein-coding genes. The goal of the Gene Wiki project is to create seed articles for every notable human gene, that is, every gene whose function has been assigned in the peer-reviewed scientific literature. Approximately half of human genes have assigned function, therefore the total number of articles seeded by the Gene Wiki project would be expected to be in the range of 10,000 - 15,000. To date, approximately 10,271 articles have been created or augmented to include Gene Wiki project content. Expansion Once seed articles have been established, the hope and expectation is that these will be annotated and expanded by editors ranging in experience from the lay audience to students to professionals and academics. Proteins encoded by genes The majority of genes encode proteins hence understanding the function of a gene generally requires understanding of the function of the corresponding protein. In addition to including basic information about the gene, the project therefore also includes information about the protein encoded by the gene. Stubs for the Gene Wiki project are created by a bot and contain links to the following primary gene/protein databases * HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee official gene name * Entrez Gene database * OMIM (Mendelian Inheritance in Man) database that catalogues all the known diseases with a genetic component * Amigo Gene Ontology * HomoloGene gene homologs in other species * SymAtlasRNA gene expression pattern in tissues * Protein Data Bank 3D structure of protein encoded by the gene * Uniprot (universal protein resource) a central repository of protein data
